To see how crazy and smart German weapon designers were check out some of their wunderwaffe(wonder weapons).
Wunderwaffe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Everything from ballistic missle subs, the first MANPADS, night vision, and my personal favorites the highly impractical 1000 ton tank with TWIN 280mm cannons, 128mm anti-tank gun and various other guns and a self propelled 800mm gun. A few of these weapons were actually used.
France actually had better tanks than the Germans at the beginning of the war. Their problem was they passed them out among the infantry divisions instead of concentrating them into armored divisions like the Germans did.
