The AT 2 is a British tier 5 tank destroyer.
A design for an assault tank to break through enemy defensive lines. The design was completed by May 15, 1943. No prototypes were built, but the project helped to set the stage for another heavy assault tank, the A39 Tortoise.
The AT 2 is radically different from its predecessors, it's the first true British Tank Destroyer in it's line. The AT 2 is very slow, boasts tough all-round armor, and has an increased hitpoint pool. The AT 2, unlike tank destroyers of other nations, is a front-line tank. It is most effective leading the team while drawing and deflecting enemy fire, albeit while moving slowly. The AT 2 is a spearhead breakthrough tank but absolutely requires supporting teammates; it has very poor viewrange and is extremely vulnerable to flanking. A flanked AT 2 should keep its armor towards the enemies in front, it must rely on its teammates to deal with the flank because its turning speed is just too slow.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Very good all round armor for tier V
- Offers an accurate, quick-aiming, and fast-firing 6-pounder gun (similar to the Churchill III and Ram-II)
- Can be fitted with a 3.7-inch Howitzer.
- Higher hit points compared to other tier V tank destroyers
- In tier 5 game it can angle pretty safely to every direction without worrying if enemy shoots side/rear
Cons:
- Very slow
- Low traverse speed
- Relatively low damage guns (typical for low tier British tanks)
Performance
With very thick frontal and substantial rear and side armor, the AT 2 is an intimidating opponent. Even though this TD is extremely well armored, it has weakspots that are easy to hit up-close and a very slow top speed and a sluggish traverse speed. It is very easy to get killed at close range, be it from snipers or faster tanks. Do not get overconfident on the AT 2's armor against tier 7s. Leading a slow charge with your frontal armor will lead your team through to victory. Just be sure you have tanks who can help defend your rear. The accurate and fast-firing 6-pounder offers great damage per minute and may scare off enemies, whether that's a good thing or not depends on the situation. Once you choose a route you are committed to it for the rest of the game. Don't camp, keep pushing; firstly because artillery will devastate the AT 2 and secondly because you will not be able to keep up or worse, prevent your team from pushing. City maps are the best places for the AT 2, open field maps are the worst. Know the AT 2's weaknesses and minimize them by playing with constant support, and you'll find this tank extremely rewarding.
