The LTTB is a Soviet tier 8 light tank.
Development of the light tank project was started in early 1944 at Factory No. 174. The project was canceled during the design phase and the phase of setting tactical and technical requirements.
More or less the T-50-2 with physics applied.
The LTTB leads to the T-54 ltwt..

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Well armored and highest HP pool for its tier and class.
- Downright amazing power to weight ratio with top engine, accelerates in a snap and can go 30-35 km/h up rather steep hills.
- Good top speed with top engine (Though with the hp/t, expect speeds more in the range of 73-75).
- Turns well at high speeds and turns very quickly at low speeds; stops in a snap.
- Very good penetration and alpha with top gun; can exploit most higher tier tanks weak spots with ease.
Cons:
- Bad gun elevation arc (-5°/+15°).
- Somewhat large silhouette, especially from side
Performance
In some respects this tank is nearly as odd as the T-28 in terms of its role, except unlike the T-28 it has more going for it. It actually has both good hull armor and turret armor unlike virtually all of the other light tanks in its tier, those who were frustrated by the MT-25's firepower will begin to really like the LTTB's top gun, as it fares unbelievably better against more heavily armored foes. The top gun also has good accuracy and the exact same aim time as the Ru-251.
However the poor elevation and depression angles mean that you will very often struggle to hit the enemies in front of you, or miss them because you drive onto a bump at the time you shoot. Try to avoid ridge lines and hilly terrain because you will be completely outplayed there.
The good speed and fantastic horsepower per ton on the top engine make actually harassing a armored opponent all the more tempting, but remember, you still are outmatched in armor even with the LTTBs surprisingly good armor ratings. The armor of the LTTB simply allows you to harass for somewhat longer periods of time (to a point it almost seems like your just directly engaging) before you have to escape with the LTTB's good agility and amazing acceleration.
The good top radio means that this seemingly perfect all-rounder light tank can even scout, and it does have a decent enough size to do so pretty well. However the LTTB appears at first glance to be played more as a precision ambusher, coming out of nowhere to unload multiple shots into a tanks exposed weak spots and then darting away before anyone can react. The LTTB, when looking at it on paper, also appears to be able to hunt down and eliminate other light tanks with relative success.
If you do wish to use this tank in such a role, getting light spall liner can help the LTTB much more easily survive other tanks that try to kill it via ramming. Enhanced suspension will also make getting tracked due to collisions more difficult.
Early Research
- The Radio R-113 from the MT-25 and LTB
- First research the tracks; you can replace it with engine but mounting engine first will limit remaining weight for equipment significantly
- Then research the engine
- Finally the gun

Historical Accuracy Errata
A turret was never designed for the LTTB.
- Planned 85 mm ZiS-S-53 gun is missing. The other gun configurations are fake.
- The 85 mm D5T-85BM was only developed for the SU-85.
- Its only intended powerplant is a 400 hp V8 engine. The 660 and 770 hp engine configurations are fake.
