Germany developed the initial anti-tank weapons and tactics because they were the first to face tanks on the battlefield. The Germans were unable to stop the first Allied armoured vehicle crawling slowly through no-man’s land. The Germans began using the 7.92mm K bullet, a steel core armour-piercing cartridge, later. This was the beginning of the war between armour penetrators, or armour penetrators, and armoured tanks. The Germans developed bigger anti-tank weapons. The Pak 36 was unable to defeat French medium and heavy tank in spring 1940. In a few instances, 88mm Flak cannons were used to defeat well-armored Allied tanks. The armoured arms race escalated, so that by 1944-45, a few German anti-tank guns had grown to 128mm, while 75mm and 88mm were commonplace.
