The BT-SV is a Soviet tier 3 premium light tank.
Developed in 1937 at Armored Vehicle Repair Base No. 12 (Kharkov command). The BT-SV used parts and components of the BT-7. The hull used 10–12-mm structural steel plates that formed sloped armor; the mass-produced vehicle was supposed to feature 25-mm homogeneous armor steel plates. The vehicle passed trials but did not see service. Subsequently, its sloped armor design was used for the A-20 experimental tank and T-34.
It was available on the Russian Portal in the Russian Gift Box edition as well as in a special Gift Box edition along with the MTLS-1G14, Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. J and SU-85I. The enclosed code was valid for use on the RU, EU, NA and SEA servers.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Very fast acceleration
- Heavily angled armor provides decent protection
- Good rate of fire
- Never sees tier 5 tanks
- Side skirts help protect against HE
Cons:
- Poor turning speed
- Below average penetration
- Very poor view and radio range
- Poor gun depression
Performance
This tank, with regards to the high speed, well-sloped armor, the fact that it never sees Tier 5's on top of the generally poor skills of lower-tier pub match players, this is arguably one of the most fun tanks in the whole game. Thanks to the rocket-like speed, ramming targets as a last resort is a possibility, though it is probably not recommended as you won't survive. One of the ways this tank is best played is to do a drive-by on a group of enemies, using your combination of excellent speed and sloped armor to survive as you throw shots downrange. Another viable option is to use your speed to get to good positions, allowing you to claim an area before the other team has a chance. The gun itself isn't too bad either, even if it is under par in some areas like depression. While it may have incredible acceleration and top speed, it comes at a price; its turning speed is abysmal. This means you should think ahead so you don't find your tank plummeting off a cliff or straight into another tank.
