July 5th 1943 Germans begin their last offensive push during the battle of Kursk,this will be the last time the Germans Blitzkrieg tactic is used in such numbers on the Eastern front,and the first time it fails so completely giving the Russian army. After this failure the Russian advance is launched and retakes key cities from the Germans.
Kursk is a very interesting battle,it to me is key in the course of the war and the outcome so shapes the events that follow. Not only the largest armor battle,but the largest Aerial battle as well takes place during the Kursk confrontation.
