The T 55A is a German tier 9 premium medium tank.
An upgraded version of the T-55 tank. The T 55A had a higher level of nuclear protection and no bow machinegun. From 1962 through 1970, about 1,800 of the T-55 and T 55A tanks were supplied to East Germany by the U.S.S.R.
The T-55A is available as a reward for completing the third set of Personal Missions.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Similar, yet superior gun to the T-54 in many soft stats
- Superior terrain resistance to T-54 makes acceleration on-par and traverse even better
- Slightly better view range than the T-54
- Retains excellent turret and side armor of the T-54
Cons:
- Weaker hull armor than T-54, similar to WZ-120
- Slower uphill speed than T-54 due to lower pw/wt ratio and lower top speed
- Bad gun depression and elevation.
- Prone to driver death and ammo rack damage
- Worst AP penetration of all tier 9 mediums
Performance
The T 55A is similar to the T-54 yet has more in common with the T-62A. The noticeably weaker hull armor doesn't allow you to be as aggressive as in a T-54, however your turret armor and side armor are the same so you still can sidescrape or stay hull down if possible and needed. Your superior gun handling gives you the edge and makes snap shots extremely potent and likely to hit even on the move. Therefore you should focus more on flanking and quick snap shots, however your short aim time combined with the very good accuracy also makes long range fights a real option.
The reduced top speed in comparison is perceptible, but not dramatic - in most cases your quick acceleration and very good terrain resistance values make you just as mobile despite the considerably weaker engine.
