<value_unset_error>
The T18 is a closed-type tank destroyer and its thick frontal armor plating can make it a tough nut to crack. It is also quite mobile and has excellent close-range firepower for its tier once armed with the 75mm howitzer.
The <value_unset_error> marks the end of its line.

Performance
The T18 can be either the best tier 2 TD or the worst, all depending on how you use it. As a stock tank, it leaves much to be desired, with weak suspension, engine, and gun. For the early stages of game play, sniping with this tank can be the best way to go. Being a low-tier TD, it will always encounter tanks larger than itself (tier 3's at best, 4's at worst.) Its small size allows it to hide well from afar, and its heavier than usual armor allows for many deflections at medium to long range. Close-quarters fighting, however, must be done with caution, and preferably with the tank fully upgraded. Even with the top engine and suspension, this TD is very sluggish when compared with other tanks of its class. In the way of armament, however, nothing can defeat it. Armed with a 75mm howitzer, the T18 can destroy any tier 2 tank in one or two hits, and kill tier 3 tanks with relative ease. When using the tank in close quarters, it is imperative to always have supporting tanks, as the T18 has VERY light side and rear armor, and since it lacks a turret, it can be surrounded very easily. Although the frontal armor is quite thick, not many penetrating shots will be needed to take this tank out, and caution should always be used.
Unfortunately, since the game puts this tank in tier 3-5 battles, it doesn't really get to take much advantage of its strong armor.
Early Research
- The SCR 200 radio carries over from the T1 Cunningham and should be equipped immediately.
- Research the suspension upgrade first.
- Next focus on getting the 75mm.
- After that go for the Continental R-975-C1 engine.
- Optionally unlock the QF 2 pdr. gun if you want to try something that is much more accurate and fires faster.
