That crane is now a 4-barrel, 8-tread monster , with most of the modifications done towards making it an auto-loading tank, storing ammo and keeping its crew safe. How fucked are the Russians trying to hold that line?

When I was a kid, I used to imagine big crane carriers like that had a big gun on them instead of a crane.
Okay, I still do.
My X-type is too a real Jaguar

Simple by out producing it, the Russians and the US could build 50 Tiger and Sherman tanks for each one of these the Germans made.

Some weapons systems already exist that based on construction vehicles. Sweden is using a weird artillery truck (Archer) that’s based on a Volvo’s all-terrain articulated hauler.
Maybe your idea would enough to carry guns equivalent what Soviets were prototypi
ng before cruise missiles made them obsolete. Oka 2B1 (420mm)
and Kondensator 2A3 (406mm)
. One
silly detail about these is that the barrel is actually pointing backwards
when they are transported. Your idea would fix this.
At least one of each type has
survived in
Russian museums
. Here’s the
Oka.

Snipers disable the tanks by targeting that big-ass windshield in the front, killing th e drivers.

Not fucked at all. Germans would get bogged down and the Russians would just flank them and hit their rear lines then Zerg 'em to death.

Not at all, they would just outflank it with their highly mobile T-34s and kill it from the rear. Or their Ilyushin Il-2 planes from the top. Or catc h them while refuelling and send in a suicide Ural Motorcycle squad with Molotov Cocktails.
