Achilles

Der Achilles ist ein britischer Jagdpanzer der Stufe 6.

Der Achilles war die britische Ausführung des amerikanischen Jagdpanzers M10 GMC. Das sonst übliche Geschütz M10 wurde gegen das britische Panzerabwehrgeschütz Ordnance Quick-Firing 17-pounder Gun ausgetauscht. Dadurch konnte das Fahrzeug wirskam gegen deutsche Fahrzeuge vorgehen. 1944 wurde die Umbewaffnung des Jagdpanzers in die Wege geleitet, insgesamt wurden 1100 Fahrzeuge bis zum Kriegsende umgebaut.

Der Achilles führt zum Challenger.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Superior stock gun compared to the American 3-inch AT Gun M7

• Superb accuracy

• Decent mobility

• Good view range

Cons:

• Slow turret traverse

• Low alpha damage

• Poor gun depression despite the open turret

• Thin armor and large target

• Stock grind is awful

Performance

The Achilles plays similarly to an uptiered M10 Wolverine. Absolutely dreadful when stock, you will have problems penetrating even certain medium tanks, let alone heavy tanks - the good gun depression does not help much either. Unless your opponent's team is full of lightly armoured tanks, you will struggle to make any impact in a match - use your mobility and view range to take a more passive scouting role, and pounce on injured tanks to finish them off or take opportunistic shots when possible.

However, with the 17-pounder you have a fighting chance to penetrate all but the heaviest tier 8 tanks, despite the inferior gun depression. Although it has high DPM, the low alpha means that you will have to expose your tank for long periods of time to get the gun working. Because of its horrible armor, most hits you receive will penetrate you, and artillery is especially deadly. With an accuracy of 0.33 and an aim time of 1.9 sec, the gun is good at delivering damage at range, which will reduce your chances of being hit, allowing you to make use of your DPM.

Early Research

• The tracks are not required to mount the top gun and turret if you are using the upgraded engine, and can be saved for later
• First, research the engine as it is lighter, increasing your mobility
• Next, research the upgraded turret and gun; the top gun is shared with the AT-8 and AT-7, so you will already have it researched if you have gone down the AT-x line.
• Last, research the tracks

Historical Info

Among the multitude of military vehicles supplied to Britain by the United States in World War 2 were around 1,600 M10 tank destroyers, including mid-production M10 I and late-production M10 II variants. They could be told apart by the shape of the counterweight on the turret rear: wedge-shaped on the I, and enlarged on the II. Unfortunately, initial encounters with heavyweight German opponents like the Tiger I and Panther showed shortcomings in the power of the 3-inch (76.2 mm) gun; with a counter-invasion of Europe looming, it was decided to fit the M10 with the British 17 pounder gun instead. The refitting process began in Spring 1944 and the majority of the roughly 1,000 converted were M10 IIs. These were renamed M10 IIC, with the C signifying the 17 pounder. Fitting the gun required a counterweight behind its muzzle brake, and the ammunition storage area was altered to take the bigger shells.

With the power to tear through Tiger I and Panther front armor from 1km, the M10 IIC quickly earned the trust of anti-tank units such as those of the 21st Army Group, and also on the Italian front. One prominent example of its ability was provided by the M10 IIC Battery of the 62nd Anti-Tank Regiment, which shook off a counter from Panthers and Panzer IVs to destroy 13 German tanks in fighting around Caen in the aftermath of the July 1944 Normandy landings. The M10 IIC was also deployed by Canadian and Polish units, and served into the 1950s.
