Specifically, the mismatch in crew values caused by commander's 10% crew skill bonus. Outside of a crew of 1 commander only, 100% crew is a fiction. The client values, given for 100% crew, will normally be taken into battle with 110% crew skill members aside from specific functions, causing their actual performance to deviate from the expected client value. These differences are taken into account in tooltip boxes.

The HWK 12 is a German tier 8 light tank.

A series of HWK 10 light caterpillar armored carriers was developed by Henschel-Werke in the late 1950s–early 1960s. The vehicles were developed for export purposes. The first HWK 11 prototype was created in 1963, with 40 vehicles being sent to Mexico later. Two HWK 13 prototypes (reconnaissance vehicles) were built as well. The HWK 12 was supposed to be manufactured on the basis of the same chassis, but no prototypes were built.

The HWK 12 leads to the Spähpanzer Ru 251.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:


  • Good alpha damage and penetration for a light tank
  • Great gun depression
  • Outstanding viewrange, best in tier among light tanks
  • Good top speed and acceleration
  • Generous ammo capacity of 50 shells


Cons:


  • Horrible shell velocity and subpar gun handling
  • Light and poorly armored, very vulnerable to HE penetrations and ramming
  • Not the best camouflage for a light tank
  • Lacks improved HE penetration that higher tiered German light tanks enjoy
  • Hull traverse is not great for a light tank


Performance

Because of the tank's smaller than average width, it can fit in small bushes that other scouts (M41, HWK 30) cannot fit in. This, combined with the excellent view range can produce an excellent passive scout. However, because the top speed of the tank is lower than most of its peers, it can't take as aggressive bushes like the ELC EVEN 90 or B-C 12t can.

The tank, with a large supply of HEAT rounds, can also take a supporting role. In this role, either position behind the front lines, or infiltrate through gaps in the enemy lines (once some enemy tanks are destroyed) in order to get shots on the sides of enemy vehicles. However, be prepared for a lot of frustrating misses due to the extremely low shell velocity (even lower with HEAT). Remember in this role that if you are not getting shots on an enemy, then you are wasting a tier 8 tank and should find another way to get into the fight.

Due to the tank's worse agility compared to other light tanks, this tank should not generally active scout. The poor gun handling also works against this.

The tank's small size will allow it to avoid snapshots, which should provide enough time to get away once spotted if fighting at midrange or farther. However, it won't hold up to sustained fire. Fortunately, the quick acceleration of the vehicle allows it to escape a situation once spotted.

Historical Info

The HWK-11 was a joint project between the Mexican defense secretary (SEDENA) and Henschel Wehrtechnik GmbH of West Germany. In 1964 the first 12 vehicles were manufactured in West Germany and delivered to the Mexican Army. A further 28 vehicles were later manufactured in Mexico. The HWK-12 existed in blueprints only and did not go beyond the design phase. This anti-tank variant used the design of the HWK-11, but included a turret with a 90 mm Mecar canon placed on the rear of the vehicle. The cannon had an elevation of fifteen and a gun depression of ten degrees.
