The <value_unset_error> is a [[|]] tier .
<value_unset_error>
The first heavy tank in the Entwicklung series. It has very thick sloped armor, rivaling that of the ST-I, but with one great advantage. Unlike the ST-I, the E-75 lacks the huge view port weakspot the ST-I has on the front side. Stock it is armed with the inadequate 8.8 cm KwK 43 L/71, but can also use the 10.5 cm KwK 46 L/68 from the Tiger II so make sure to research it before using the E-75. Eventually, you will have access to the very powerful 12.8 cm KwK 44 L/55 that packs a sizable punch up close or afar. The E-75 can be used for multiple roles thanks to its fantastic armor and great weaponry. Very thick and well sloped armor makes the E-75 virtually immune to all tier 6 and lower tanks even if they attack the sides and rear. However, of the tier 9 and 10 heavies the E-75 is one of the slowest, with only the Maus having a slower top end speed. You have relatively fragile side armour, with sluggish turret travers, and taking this in consideration, you can be easily flanked and destroyed by faster mediums. You can help migitate the danger by traversing your hull along with the turret, doubling the traverse speed and allowing you to get a shot on the enemy.
Speed and agility aside, you are a quite versetile tank. You can be a close range brawler relying on your armor and firepower to keep you alive, or you can be a far range sniper with good accuracy and damage. The E75 is one of the most dynamic heavies of it's tier, with thick hull and turret armor coupled with an excellent gun. In situations in which your armor does not hold out against enemy fire, you can rely on your huge block of hit points to bring you through the battle.
The <value_unset_error> marks the end of its line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Excellent dynamics. Combined with excellent hull and turret armor, this "trustworthy" heavy tank is not an easy opponent for
- Strong upper frontal armor and excellent whole frontal turret armor.
- Relatively strong side armor.
- Excellent view range.
- Excellent gun: very accurate, good rate of fire, and high DPS.
Cons:
- Tall silhouette.
- A marked tendency to receive critical hits to the internal modules and crew.
- The observation devices tend to get damaged easily.
- Strong inertia - damaged tracks during tank movement will rotate it almost 180°.
- Poor turret rotation speed.
Performance
With strong armor, a precise and powerful gun, and decent maneuverability for its size, the E-75 is a highly capable tank. Many say it's what the Tiger II would be if it was tier 9.
The tank has a very high silhouette, so don't expect to do much hiding. The ammunition is very expensive (aim carefully before each shot), and most importantly, the turret rotates very slowly. Most any medium tank can out-circle it.
However, in the top tier, E-75 is a perfectly balanced machine, whose presence in the list should make any opponent nervous. The E-75 used to have a rear-mounted transmission, however it was moved to the front in one of the patches, so it will still suffer engine damage and fire from frontal hits. However it is still less prone to these than other German heavies due to relatively high armour value for the lower hull plate, as well as a decent angle.
Despite the low (but standard for the Germans) maximum speed of 30 kph, it is nevertheless quite frisky. Low top speed and hull rotation stats are made up for by brute horsepower, with the 1,200 HP top engine giving it respectable acceleration and turning. All the guns for the tank have good accuracy and fire rapidly.
The main tactic is sniping from a distance. The tank is very sensitive to the splash damage from artillery, not to mention a direct hit. It would be very useful to have the E-100's screens, but in their absence, this tank must rely on agility and engine power. Effectively, this tanks is roughly on par with the IS-4.
The greatest danger for the E-75 in a direct clash comes from fast tanks. When fighting very strong opposition, "hull down" or "American" tank tactics can be used: hide the body in the folds of the terrain or behind stones/tank corpse and shoot enemies from a distance.
Early Research
- If you unlock the E-75 via the Tiger II, then you'll already have the Maybach HL 234 and 10.5 cm KwK 46 L/68 researched and you can install them immediately.
- The first thing you should research is the upgraded suspension.
- From there the turret is a great next step, and you can take your pick from there.
