Object 261
Revision as of 23:44, 31 March 2012 by
The Object 261 is a Soviet tier 8 self-propelled gun. Rather than using the 203mm from its previous counterpart, the Object 212, it opts for the 180mm which may turn some people off with its lack of damage, but it does compensate with a higher rate of fire, and has good accuracy which makes some players use Armor Piercing shells for more consistent damage and better penetration. It only carries 18 rounds opposed to 40 rounds on the Object 212. It is also quite mobile for its size. Something to note that the AP penetration is much better than the 203mm gun on the Object 212.
- The Object 261 marks the end of the Soviet self propelled guns line.
