Blitzkrieg was a military strategy used by Nazi Germany that combined fast-moving tanks and mechanized infantry to overwhelm enemies quickly, as shown by German forces advancing through Ukraine in 1942. It matters because this approach to warfare—coordinating different types of forces to move rapidly—became one of the defining military tactics of World War II.
