The LTG is a Soviet tier 7 light tank.
A project for a light tank developed by Gavalov at the Gorky Automobile Plant in 1944. Several extremely unusual design solutions were used for the vehicle: a driver sat in the fighting compartment, and his observation device was installed in the hatch at the turret top. The device was synchronized with the driver's station and rotated with the seat against the turret. The project was discontinued at the development stage.
The LTG leads to the LTTB.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Good turret armor for its tier and class
- Low profile and high camouflage value
- Good mobility, very strong HE shell which shreds poorly armored vehicles
- Fast turret traverse speed, combined with decent gun handling makes it very good at snapshots and hit-and-run
- Relatively painless stock grind
Cons:
- Fragile ammorack
- Stock gun has subpar penetration
- Poor gun depression
- Awful view range, the worst of any tier 7 light tank (360), albeit it has very high camouflage values
- Somewhat sluggish when using stock engine
Performance
This tank, unlike other light tanks, has a very low profile, which in turn, gives the tank a good camouflage value; added with Camo net and Binoculars, will make it into a well equipped passive scout. The low profile will also allow side hugging taller tanks (But the turret size would be problematic). Keep in mind that firing will reveal your position, and the armor the tank has at Tier VII will not be very effective, unless its small arms fire (Eg. lower tier 75/76mm guns). Active scouting with this tank is not advised, as it has a weak ammo rack (As mentioned above) and poor view range. The most likely explosion rate is when the tank is exposing either side towards enemy fire; and the view range will force you to get closer to the enemy, as it will increase the risk of a trip to the garage. For this reason it is HIGHLY recommended to at least have Coated Optics.
Early Research
- The Radio R-113 Carries over from the MT-25 (If researched)
- The tracks are necessary to mount any other modules, or even most equipment
- The 85 mm D-5T-85BMU will give extra penetration and alpha damage

Historical Info
In this project, the crew compartment was situated in the turret,w while the engine was apparently in the back in lying position. Fuel tanks and a part of stowed ammunition were located in the “nose” of the vehicle. In the turret, on the right side from the gun was the driver, the commander of the vehicle was behind him, and on the left side there was the gunner and loader. Furthermore, the engine was placed horizontally (the cylinders were horizontal), which, along with placing the crew in the turret, reduced the height of the vehicle.
As mentioned earlier, the driver’s seat was “stabilized” – when the turret turned, the driver stayed looking forward – this was possible thanks to a special chain transmission and the fact that the whole turret was “sitting” on the bottom of the tank on a pivot, not unlike the one of the anti-aircraft lafettes. Effectively, the driver was sitting on the turret axis and the whole thing rotated around him. The driver was also sitting above the rest of the crewmembers, looking out via a roof-mounted periscope, which was also stabilized.
As for the armament,in player-suggested trees, this tank is equipped with either a 57mm ZiS-5, or 76,2mm ZiS-4 and S-54 and characterised as a small, fast vehicle. Historically, it was to be equipped with a long-barelled 76mm gun and a machinegun. The vehicle was supposed to be 1,3m tall, 4m long and was supposed to have 7 large roadwheels. Armor was most likely probably non-existent.

Historical Accuracy Errata
* The armor values of the tank were most likely created by Wargaming, as there is no indication of what the values actually were.
- The 85mm guns were not proposed for this tank.
