A properly aimed shot is a guaranteed kill on all tanks with less than 330HP and stands a good chance of ruining the day of all tier IV tanks, tier V tank destroyers and tier V medium tanks. | Also note that, just like the [[KV-1S]], your gun is a massive threat to Tier IV and V tanks.

The SU-100Y is a Soviet tier 6 premium tank destroyer.
Developed on the basis of the T-100 heavy tank. The vehicle was intended to neutralize fortified emplacements and enemy vehicles, and was equipped with the improved B-13-S2 naval gun. The only prototype was manufactured in March 1940. The vehicle never entered mass production.
This tank was added to the game in the 0.8.4 patch. It is a very powerful tank destroyer, with the highest alpha damage of any tier VI tank (excluding the KV-2's 152mm and SPGs). Unfortunately, its view and signal range are rather poor, and the armour is quite thin on all sides.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Great speed and agility for the large size
- Very high alpha damage (HE capable of damaging tier 10 tanks)
- Excellent penetration (can still be very useful in tier 8 battles)
- Great hit points for a TD
- Relatively thick gun mantlet can stop shots
Cons:
- Very large silhouette
- Very weak armor other than the mantle
- Low signal range makes it hard to snipe from a distance
- Shells are quite expensive
- No preferential matchmaking
Performance
As the in-game description hints, this tank destroyer is best used as an assault gun. Your tall silhouette and poor view/signal range will hinder any attempts to play a classic sniper/ambush tank destroyer role. You should travel with teammates to points where your alpha is most needed, since their presence will negate your disadvantages of view range, signal range and reload time. While your teammates keep the enemy busy, you can get in position and deal a crippling strike to an enemy tank, especially their top tiers. You have the penetration to handle tier VIIIs, even from the front, so don't be afraid to take shots at them - just not on your own, of course.
Also note that, just like the KV-1S, your gun is a massive threat to Tier IV and V tanks. A properly aimed shot is a guaranteed kill on all tanks with less than 330HP and stands a good chance of ruining the day of all tier IV tanks, tier V tank destroyers and tier V medium tanks.
Be careful of the KV-2, though - the 152mm cannon will reliably one-shot you from the front!
All in all, join the main push, and put big damage downrange where it's required. Those shots of yours may just turn the tide of battle.

Historical Info
During the Winter War it was proposed to modernize the T-100 with a more powerful armament, the 152 mm M-10 gun, able to destroy concrete structures, particularly in dragon's teeth, a common anti-tank measure amongst Europe's fixed fortifications during World War II. A new turret to accommodate the 152 mm howitzer was implemented around March 1940. This new model was designated T-100-Z. However this project was abandoned because of KV-1 and the 152mm equipped KV-2 tanks were superior. In April 1940, the N°185 factory proposed a self-propelled gun (prototype 103) for coastal defence based on the T-100 and armed with the B-13 130 mm naval gun installed in a rotating turret with three 7.62 mm machine-guns. This project never went beyond the drawing boards.
When work was stopped on the T-100 project, the SU-100Y was transported to Kubinka in the summer of 1940. In November 1941, at the most critical moment of battle in the suburbs of Moscow, the SU-100Y, together with the 152 mm gun armed experimental SU-14 and Su-14-1, was pressed into service in an Independent Artillery Division for Special Duties. Further information of the combat record of the unit has not been made known. Unlike its base model (T-100), the SU-100Y prototype survived the war and is a part of the collection at the Kubinka Tank Museum.
