[Client Values; Actual values in
Specifically, the mismatch in crew values caused by commander's 10% crew skill bonus. Outside of a crew of 1 commander only, 100% crew is a fiction. The client values, given for 100% crew, will normally be taken into battle with 110% crew skill members aside from specific functions, causing their actual performance to deviate from the expected client value. These differences are taken into account in tooltip boxes.

Churchill Gun Carrier


VI

AnnoGB40_Gun_Carrier_Churchill.png

965000

The Churchill Gun Carrier is a British tier 6 tank destroyer.

The vehicle was developed on the basis of the Churchill tank. The cabin with the 3-inch gun was placed in the front. Initially, 100 vehicles were ordered. Later, the order was reduced to 24 vehicles. Eventually, a total of 50 vehicles were manufactured from 1941 through 1942. However, they never saw action.

The Churchill Gun Carrier is a Tier VI British Tank Destroyer. It can only be researched through the Churchill I Tier V Heavy Tank.

The Churchill Gun Carrier was conceived in 1942 when designers decided to stick the 3-Inch (76.2mm) obsolete anti-aircraft gun onto a ball mount housed inside of an 88mm superstructure. Only fifty were built and none were fitted with the Royal Ordnance 17-Pounder anti-tank gun which would have provided the Churchill Gun Carrier with additional firepower.

The Churchill Gun Carrier leads to the AT 7.

The Churchill Gun Carrier marks the end of its British tank destroyer line.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:


  • Good damage
  • Accurate guns
  • Superb penetration
  • Decent signal range


Cons:


  • Worthless armor
  • Poor camouflage
  • Poor mobility
  • Narrow gun arc
  • Mediocre view range


Performance

As the Churchill GC's fixed superstructure is only 88 mm thick, it is easily penetrated by tier 4 tanks and even autocannons. Its narrow gun arc, slow hull traverse and long aiming time with the 32-pdr AT gun makes it ill-adapted at dealing with moving tanks. Do not engage in close quarters as tanks like the KV-1 and KV-1S will make short work of the GC with their high alpha guns. Choose your position on the map carefully, as the GC is ultimately slow and will not be able to quickly relocate.

The 32-pdr gun deals significant damage. Its accuracy is 0.34m, and it tends to narrowly miss even stationary targets. Prioritize heavy tanks whenever possible, as the Churchill GC is one of few TDs that has a better chance of penetrating them frontally (the other being the ARL V39 with its 90 mm gun).
