Description

Undoubtedly the most recognized confrontation of the war on the Eastern Front, Kursk typically triggers visions of massed armor flowing across the open fields of the Russian steppes. Never in the history of the conflict had the German and Soviet high commands committed the magnitude of tanks, assault guns and a multitude of self-propelled weapons. Both sides were staking the very outcome of war on this single battle.
