Panzercraft is explicitly a team sport, so the one-on-one conflict isn't so important. Besides, the imagery of a Pz. IV beating a Tiger I fits with the rest of the show better.

Its too predictable for Miho just level-up, face Maho and defeat her, which is what this story seemed to be headed. Not that I mind, but I rather the both of them return to better days.

I don't think that there are any grudges held between Miho and Maho. Maho was disappointed in her little sister, but there's no indication that she blames her for anything. Likewise, Miho bears no animosity towards her big sister - she's just ashamed of letting her down. Miho did get ragged on, but it was
Erika doing all the ragging.
I get the feeling that the reason Miho dropped out of Panzercraft is because she felt that she let her team down, and not as a result of anyone pressuring her to do so. Or at least not anyone in her family.
In any case, it'll come down to victory by employing superior tactics, not to whomever has the better gear.

There was only one war fought between Germany and the Soviet Union, and one of these sides lost very very badly. I wouldn't be surprised if anime/manga writers try to pretend that didn't happen though

On paper, a Porsche Tiger is a lot better than a Pz. IV. It has better armor and a better gun, but it's slower and far more prone to breaking down. With an upgraded gun, the Pz. Iv is a potent threat to most tanks though. Of the tanks fielded by their future opponents, it'll only have problems with Black Forest's Tiger I and lots of problems with Pravda's IS-2.
