The BT-5 is a Soviet tier 3 light tank.
A mass-produced tank in the BT vehicle series that was developed as an upgraded version of the BT-2 with improved gun armament, a Soviet engine, and slightly increased vehicle height and weight. The BT-5 was one of the Red Army's main tanks before the war. Vehicles of this modification were engaged in the Spanish Civil War as well as the Battle of Khalkhyn Gol, the Polish Campaign, the Winter War, and World War II. A total of 1,884 vehicles were manufactured.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Relatively fast and manoueverable
- A good rate of fire on the gun
- Quite a low profile
Cons:
- No armour
- long hull makes you a big target and makes it harder to use cover
- limited gun depression
Performance
The BT-5 can do well if played correctly. The lack of armour makes it particularly susceptible to auto-cannons, so don't try and duke it out Pz-1Cs. Its speed means that it can get to strategic locations (for instance the hill on mines) and stay out of trouble. Its small turret means that it is a small target hull-down.
