The <value_unset_error> is a [[|]] tier .
<value_unset_error>
When fully upgraded, the T25/2 has similar speed and maneuverability to the T25 AT. However, unlike the T25 AT, the T25/2's turret cannot mount the powerful 105 mm AT Gun T5E1. The combination of only being able to use the 90 mm AT Gun T15E2 gun along with poor armor limits the T25/2 to the second line on the battlefield. The T25/2 does get a fully enclosed turret upgrade, which increases it's ability to withstand HE and artillery rounds. Using your speed to get into positions quickly and providing fire support to your allies while avoiding enemy fire is key to playing this tank destroyer.
The <value_unset_error> marks the end of its line.

Performance
The T25/2 is an odd tank to play. It's highest gun is adequate for its own tier, though it'll be rare to be at the top of the list. It´s also found to have poor camouflage characteristic, almost always being discovered after the first shot even with a camo net. It is best to use this as a second line tank, sniping at already engaged tanks or hitting them from out of their range before relocating. The depression of it's guns is excellent, allowing you to make shots that most opponents wouldn't expect especially if you are on higher or lower ground, and can save you from some difficult encounters. It is imperative to aim for the weak spots on opponents, and avoid fighting alone or spearheading an attack.

Historical Info
In March 1943 a new turret was fitted with a 90 mm AA gun and put onto a T23 model.
The Army Service Forces placed an order for 50 of these tanks.1 10 of these were to be T26s. The first T25s were completed until early 1944.
A request for 8,000 T25s and T26s with 75 mm and 76 mm guns was rejected.
Development
The T25 and T26 lines of tanks came into being in the midst of a heated internal debate within the U.S. Army in the mid-1943 to early 1944 over the need for tanks with greater firepower and armor. A 90 mm gun mounted in a massive new turret was installed in both series. The T26 series were given additional frontal hull armor, with the glacis plate increased to 4 in (10 cm). This increased the weight of the T26 series to over 40 short tons (36 t) and decreased their mobility and durability as the engine and powertrain were not improved to compensate for the weight gain.
