Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Surprisingly good frontal hull armor for its tier, slightly more than the KV-1, and doesn't share its weak spot.
- Good handling and speed for a tier V medium, especially for its frontal armor.
- Powerful top radio for its tier
- Good Gun depression and low lower glacis make it naturally good for hulldown.
- Very potent HE round on 1st and 2nd gun; 70 pen / 175 dmg can be devastating to soft targets at this tier
Cons:
- 1/5 chance to be set on fire if engine is hit.
- Stock turret makes hulldown tactics trickier.
- Poor accuracy and not very good dispersion when on the move.
- Disappointing top gun, has longest aim time of the 3 it can mount.
- Vulnerable roof, can be one-shot by same-tier SPGs.
Performance
Those familiar with the T-34-85M a tier higher will feel right at home in the P.43, as while stock it has a less well-armored turret, it does have a slightly better armored front hull (80 vs 75), and is also a tier lower, meaning that it will less likely see tanks that can easily overmatch its frontal hull. The P.43 also has 3 additional degrees of gun depression over the 85M, while obviously having lower penetration and alpha, they line up for a tier 5. HE rounds on this tank are great for the tier - one might even consider using 2nd gun as the best gun on this tank if using mostly HE rounds - these rounds have 70mm of pen, and with quick reload of approx 3.5 sec and 175 dmg you can easily dispatch many soft targets within seconds provided all shells penetrate fully. Even if you are faced with hard targets, HE rounds are still fun to use to destroy modules and cripple crew members.
