T57
The T57 is an American tier 2 self-propelled gun. For its tier the T57 has some of the best armor around, a high rate of fire for Artillery and does great damage. With most Self Propelled Guns, you have to worry about Light Tanks getting close, but in the T57 Light Tanks pose little threat and can be easily dispatched in Tank Destroyer mode with the T57's cannon. It's a great vehicle to begin learning about how to play Artillery in. With a wide arc of fire the T57 is good in large open maps, especially when the enemy has a lot of medium tanks. The T57 has a weakness however that's uncommon in other SPG's - its gun has a low vertical arc of fire. As a result urban maps are difficult (though all artillery often have problems here). Also if the target is above you, then there isn't much you can do. Despite this the T57 still allows you to be a major contribution to your team.
- The T57 leads to the M37.
