RE: The Prochorovka myth
A little comment:

-The soviets tended to use the nomer "Ferdinand" for all german SP Guns irregardless of type. So when encountering the term in soviet sources one should not read too much into it.

The real reason why the "Elefant/Ferdinand" does not feature in the essays loss statistic table is of course, that it wasn´t used at Prochorovka. The tables only include losses suffered by 1 LSSAH and the soviet tank formations immediately opposite it during a few days, not the kursk fighting in its entirety.
