Player Opinion

-Excellent AP and APCR penetration

-Weak hull armour for tier
Performance
The PZIVS is a great sniper and has an accurate gun with good shell velocity and its high DPM means it can do a good job of permatracking tanks and the turret means it can go hull down reasonably well and as the game progresses it can brawl reasonably well, but don't rely on the alpha or HE as both are somewhat low. It also isn't a very good scout of front line medium due to the slower turret traverse and acceleration.
