Russian T-34 compared to ours?

Just noticed that
the Russian Tank, the T34, was an excellent tank used during WWII

How do our tanks in Iraq compare to it?

It had diesel fuel (less likely to ignite than gasoline)

It had a simple design for easy manufacturing and repair

It was a 2" thick steel that seems resistant to shells

Its artillery could penetrate a German tank from one mile away

It had a wide track that distributed the weight better - didn't get stranded easily.
