Oh yeah, just look at all of those T34's, KV's, and JS's that had them.

sorry if I wasn't clear enough, the 45mm remained the standard stationary anti-tank gun. it was redesigned in 43 with new more powerful round, and remained in service as the standard at gun. yes of course, 85mm, and even the 100mm were supplements, to the increasingly obselete 45mm gun. but the 45mm remained the most common and on paper the "standard" at gun.
your correct medium tanks and heavy AFVs used larger calibere rounds.
and in my opinion the german 20mm gun is overpowered already, it has (from memory) a penetration of around 6.
