The 112 is a Chinese tier 8 premium heavy tank.
The development of the 112 tank started in 1962. The project was to feature parts and components of medium and heavy tanks. Existed only in blueprints. The 113 tank was a further development of the 112.
The 112 can be considered a tier 8 version of the 113. They both have the same frontal armor, and are both armed with 122 mm guns that are well-suited for brawling. The 112 is a tough nut to crack from the front, with very strong armor and no easily-hit weak spots. Its 122 mm gun has good alpha damage, but is let down by sub-par penetration for tier 8, low accuracy, and a very slow rate of fire. This, combined with its weak side and rear armor and sluggish turret traverse, makes the 112 extremely vulnerable to flanking. All in all, it should be played in the same fashion as most Russian heavies of the same tier -- Getting in close, and using its tough frontal armor to brawl with enemy heavies.
This tank was removed from the Chinese tech tree and the Premium Shop in update 9.15, but re-added in 9.17.1.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Good alpha damage
- Good viewrange
- Tough frontal hull (both upper and lower) and turret face
- Good top speed and decent ground resistance
- Preferential matchmaking, will not see Tier 10 battles
Cons:
- Lower rate of fire than its counterpart WZ-111
- Poor aimtime and accuracy
- Penetration of standard rounds is fairly lacking
- Side armor can be unreliable when sidescraping
Performance
The 112 plays much like a highly exaggerated IS-6, with even stronger strengths and even weaker weak points. It trades 20mm of side armor for an additional 20mm on its front, still heavily angled, giving it an effective armor of more than 250 mm at the front. The turret is also extremely thick and very well angled, capable of shrugging off shots from even tier X guns. However, the lower glacis is much weaker, capable of being pierced by almost anything that it will face. Also, the upper plate relies entirely on sloping to provide protection; taller tanks (of which there's plenty, given the 112's low profile) will be able to shoot on it from above and thus dramatically reduce its effective thickness. Face-hugging is ill-advised against such tanks.
The gun is a typical, modernized clone of the legendary 122mm D-25 series, featuring rack-blowing 390 damage, a rather poor 186mm of standard AP penetration and a good 530 damage HE shell for softer targets. Despite the buff in accuracy from 0.46 to 0.44 in patch 1.2, the gun still struggles in long range gunfights. Continuing to force you to engage enemies at close ranges. Of special note is that this gun has been modified to fire HEAT rounds: instead of 217mm APCR of the D-25T of Russian tanks, it fires 250mm penetration HEAT shells, capable of raining death and destruction when aimed properly. Do remember that it is HEAT, and does not react well to being fired at spaced armor. Avoid tracks, mantlets and Super Pershings like the plague, as they will simply absorb HEAT fire. HEAT performs best when firing at thick, unsloped armor, where the lack of normalization has little effect.
The 112 is at home brawling in tight, enclosed spaces, where the thick, sloped frontal hull and very strong turret come into play and the infamous inaccuracy of the D-25TA is irrelevant. Wiggle and angle your armor to maximize the chances of bouncing shots - simply add 15 degrees of angling and the frontal armor plate is auto bounce, even for massive 152mm guns! Overall, the 112 is a solid heavy tank meant for brutal, short-range combat typical of Soviet and Chinese heavies, where the thick armor dominates the field and inaccuracy of the D-25TA is reduced.
This vehicle received a significant armor buff when it was reworked in HD quality. The lower frontal plate is no longe a weakspot, and the side armor is considerably thicker, though still kinda unreliable.
