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.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Very good alpha damage for its tier/class
• Excellent APCR (premium) shell velocity
• Good gun handling and decent aim time
• Decent gun depression (-7 degrees) and turret armor, can play some hulldown positions
• Very good acceleration and good reverse speed

Cons:

• Average hitpoint pool (1300 hitpoints)
• Average top speed
• Fairly long reload time
• Limited ammo capacity (35 rounds)

Performance

This tank is basically what you will get if you combine the gun of a Lansen C with the hull of a T-44; a ridgeline jack-of-all-trades tank. With that said however, there are quite a lot of things that differs greatly from the T-44, mainly that it sports a 105mm gun as opposed to the standard 100mm gun with the same gun handling value with an even better shell penetration value along with a decent reload time to boot. Trading shots with heavies and mediums can be a comfortable experience if you combine the characteristics that is mentioned above with its turret and gun depression, as the turret can and will bounce shots that are not properly aimed on. Sidescraping may work against low-to-equal tier enemies, but do note that if there are any hits that penetrates your UFP, either your driver will be injured or your ammmorack will be damaged.

While the standard shells would do the job in most situations against most tanks (even those of a higher tier if you aim for weakspots or flank them), some players are inclined to play with a full APCR (premium) loadout, especially when bottom tier on a map with sniping positions. With its reasonably accurate gun and the fact that the APCR rounds have excellent shell velocity (1,569m/s, which is Leopard 1 levels), this means that sniping is technically a viable option in higher tier matches, depending on the situation and how the game is developing.

Early Research

This vehicle is a premium tank; no researches are needed.

Suggested Equipment

   

Documented Tank and Crew Builds

There are 2 viable equipment builds on 2.0: The agility build (Turbocharger-Vertical Stabilizers-Rammer) caters to CS-52 drivers that prefers to take advantageous positions earlier than their adversaries with the sacrifice of view range for late-game combats, or the jack-of-all-trades build (Optics/Improved Ventilations-Vertical Stabilizers-Rammer) for those who prefers to farm damage consistently while being content with the rather sluggish mobility.
