The T25/2 is an American tier 7 Tank Destroyer. when fully upgraded, the T25/2 has similar speeds and manuverability to the T25 AT however the T25/2 does not get the powerful 105mm AT gun that T25 AT can mount. So while only being able to use the upgraded 90mm gun along with poor armor, the T25/2 is limited to the second line on the battlefield. The T25/2 does however 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.

Historical Info

With encounters with German Tiger tanks in Tunisia, tanks crews were wanting a tank with bigger guns than 75 mm and 76 mm.

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.
