The <value_unset_error> is a [[|]] tier .
<value_unset_error>
The CDC is a rather interesting tank. While it was originally intended as a tank destroyer, in WoT it's more in place as a medium tank. The hard stats will lead you to believe that this is essentially a fat light tank - 35hp/t being one of the best in the game.
However, due to hidden stats, namely ground resistance, the tank is much slower than you'd think. Adding to the problems is bad gun handling - all in all it results in an inadequate package of a quick-ish medium tank with an average gun, bad gun handling and absolutely no armor. In case that's not enough, the camo values are between a Pershing and a Panther. That's 'mediocre' to 'pretty darn bad', in other words.
While the CDC was considered one of the best premium tanks at its introduction, it's not mostly a relic of the past. Penetration, while good, is not enough for the matches this thing will see, nor is it good enough to compensate for lackluster gun handling.
Good players might be able to exploit the arguably above average mobility of the tank, but it remains a tank with extremely low survivability. Big size, low camo, slow aiming, most things are against you even when employing what would appear to be ideal tactics for a fast tank destroyer. That's not even counting that this playstyle is impossible on most of the in-game maps. Adding to the problem is that most players will load HE when you come around. This means that trading shots or dueling tanks is extremely risky at best. Artillery will feast on you, and with a direct hit you won't even remember that there was an arty rebalance trying to counter the 1000-damage penetrating hits.
The <value_unset_error> marks the end of its line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Above-average penetration for a Tier 8 medium tank
- Very high power to weight ratio
- Great gun depression, effective on hilly terrain
- High ammunition count
- Good credit-making ability for its price
Cons:
- Thin armor, very vulnerable to HE
- Low top speed limits the advantage of high hp/t
- Large size, bad camouflage
- Feels sluggish due to very high ground resistance
- Frequent ammo rack damage
Performance
As it effectively has no armor at all, the AMX CDC demands a careful playstyle. Avoiding damage entirely through concealment and clever positioning and relocating is essential to improve the tank's meager survivability, and brawls are to be avoided at all costs. Consider the CDC a lightly armed, turreted tank destroyer more than a medium tank.
