Object 156 O (USSR, tier-8, “SPG”, premium, mechanics: flamethrower)
These are completely made by Lesta Studio(Developer of World of Warships) and it, together with the mechanics, is a WoT RU exclusive.
Historical reference:
Soviet experimental flamethrower based on the promising Uralvagonzavod chassis. The project began to be developed at the Leningrad VNII-100 in 1956, but at the same time, the requirements for the flamethrowing range for vehicles that did not have artillery weapons increased – the effective destruction distance was more than 250 meters. The project could no longer meet the new requirements and was curtailed in favor of more promising machines.
Crew of 3 people: Commander (Radio Operator, Loader); Gunner (Loader); Driver.
Role in battle: [NEW] SPG flamethrower.
Special category Equipment: Firepower.
XT-130 (USSR, tier-2, “SPG”, premium, mechanic: flamethrower)
Historical reference:
In order to replace the XT-26 flamethrower tank, the design bureau of the Leningrad Plant No. 174 began to create a new vehicle with weapons of this type. The tank received the XT-130 index (in addition to flamethrowing, this chemical tank could be used to set up smoke screens and contaminate the area with toxic substances) and was created on the basis of the T-26. XT-130s were produced in 1938-1939. A total of 300 tanks were built. These tanks participated in the fighting on the Khalkhin Gol River, in the “Winter War” and in the Great Patriotic War until 1942.
Crew 2 people: Commander (Gunner, Radio Operator, Loader); Driver mechanic.
goofy ahh cabrio
no turret
so low
hmmm but not insane camo rating… fine
Imagine it face hanging people… There will be tanks that just can’t fight back
Not just JP HT. E25 can do that to a lot of tanks such as T-34 (85 or 100)
Camo would be irrelevant on this tank, no need to hide when you want to get in someone’s face and turn them into a French fry.
Anyway, yes the tank is very low but the roof might be overmatchable.
absolutely no weak spots with unpenetrable armor at tier 8 (250mm effective???) and the short range is supposed to make it balanced?
250mm is the maximum raw thickness, not the effective value. It could only be the gun shield (like with T29, 279mm at Tier 7 but it’s not the whole turret).
