I'm not sure the Ukrainians and Russians agree. I understand that a lot of their fire support has come from older model tanks firing indirect from well behind the line.

Would it be too much to have the Armoured Corps focus on armoured warfare and the Infantry Corps focus on being infantry? Add panzertruppen to the panzer troops. Give the infantry protected transport. Three regiments of tanks, AFVs and assault troops. Make them as big as you like and...
