Negative. The British introduced the first tank, and it was during WWI. The Germans built only one type of tank in WWI and they only built 21 of them...the A7V; it was built in 1917 and looked like a crawling shoe box.
The British tank was superior and in much greater numbers than the Germans. They helped to terrorize the Germans in the lattter stages of the war. The Germans, totally underestimated the potency of this new weapon.
The Germans used the PanzerFaust (tank fist). It was a disposable anti tank weapon.
The tank.
They were introduced during the first World War. (Which went from 1914 to 1918)
How can a weapon NOT BE a weapon? Chemical gas attacks, various "automatic" weapons, machine /gatlin guns etc. The biggest weapon. not a weapon in the sense of a single person activating it was the introduction, by the British, of the tank.
The first tank was invented by the Brittish in the first world war 1914 - 1918 and used as a weapon in the battle of the somme in July 1916.
The tank and the automatic rifle and grenades and larger mortar fire are the most dangerous weapons. The most dangerous chemical weapon was the mustard gas the Germans used.
The British did. They were trying to deceive the Germans into believing they were for transporting water to troops in places wheeled vehicles couldn't go.
A tank is a weapon. A tomahawk is a weapon.
Tank were used by Germans, and later by Russians, British and Americans, as main attacking weapon. Main task of tank groups was to break enemy lines. Battle of Kursk (in Russia) was one of the largest tank battles of this war.
The first anti-tank weapon was the "tank rifle," developed during World War I. These were large-caliber rifles designed to penetrate the armor of early tanks, with notable examples like the British Boys Anti-Tank Rifle introduced in 1937. While initially effective, advancements in tank armor quickly rendered such rifles less useful, leading to the development of more sophisticated anti-tank weapons.
The first tanks were introduced on to the battlefield by the British in the First World War.
