Armor & Gun=Tank Only Armor=Armored Personnel Carrier Only Gun=Self Propelled Gun Nearly (close to & counting license built copies by other nations) 100,000 T54/T55 medium tanks have been built. Approximately 50,000 M4's & 50,000 T34's were built (and many still exist today in foreign armies). Discounting the thousands of M60's, T62's, T64's, T72's, T'80's, Centurions, Pattons, Leopards, Abrams, there are probably 1/2 million tanks existing in the world...operational and non-operational, in museums and in the field.
In World War I, tanks were first used. The were top secret but very large. To get the tanks to the battle field unnoticed, they were put into crates labeled "water tanks". They were nicknamed "Water Tanks" but the name was shortened over time to "Tanks".
Tanks were just used as back ups. Not like todays tanks that are used in the front to push through the lines. Tanks had many flaws still since they were just introduced by Britain in the war.
49,000 were produced
Only about 1,300 Tiger tanks were manufactured. In contrast the US built 88,000 Sherman tanks, and relied on vast numerical superiority to offset the tremendous qualitative edge enjoyed by the Tiger and Panther tanks of Germany.
about 10000
The Soviets built 35,119 T-34 tanks, and 29,430 T-34-85 tanks.

The most common was the American built M-4 Sherman Medium tank. The US built 88,000 of them, and besides equipping its own forces with them provided them, via lend-lease, to Britain, France and the Soviet Union. But there were quite a few different models of Allied tanks. The Russians built their own rugged T-34s, perhaps the best tank of the war, and KV-1 heavy tanks. The British built excellent Churchill tanks. Americans also operated Stuart Light tanks, and late in the war a few M-26 Pershing tanks appeared. Another American design was the horrible M-3 Grant Medium tank, a death trap to its own crew. It was mostly withdrawn from action by 1943, after costing the lives of many American and British tankers.
