A significant number of “gold” vehicles have been prepared for release. Many of them may appear soon.
The long-suffering 
Chieftain Mk. 6 might debut for the first time in the EU region. It originally appeared in Update 0.10.0 way back in 2015. Back then, it was considered overpowered, but today it’s just an average tank with balanced characteristics—still, it’s quite comfortable to play. Since then, the Chieftain Mk. 6 has been released everywhere: WoT Blitz, WoT Console, and the CN region of WoT. It features excellent DPM, good aiming time, and accuracy, but its armor, power-to-weight ratio, and view range are mediocre compared to the T95/FV4201 Chieftain.
Also ready for release is the 
MBT-B. After 6(!) iterations on Supertest and 2 more on the Common Test, the tank is finally fully prepared for launch. Its drum mechanic might make it overpowered—or it could just be marketing hype.
All changes below are relative to the second iteration of the 1.28.1 Common Test.

So, will the Mk 6 finally emerge from the shadows and reclaim the place it deserved 10 years ago? Or will it die an epic death?
The MBT-B is WG’s attempt at seeing the same tank in Lesta with that unique “ability”
also, another wheely, what the MM needs
wasted opportunity with the Pancernik
Like, WT E 100 isnt gonna seem op with the clip at all in the face of the MBT. 2800 clip vs 2400 burst isnt that massively different, but one is small with anti HE armor, the camo is SOMEWHAT usable and uses 10 degrees gun depression. Plus Doesnt MBT have better DPM too by like 100~200? That might wanna nerf the dispersion after firing or something??
Played against mbt 2 times… It is very OP!
There is no such thing as OP tank in this game! And I mean no tank! MBT-B with the last changes made in last iteration is terrible, they ruined it.
No…so they nerf tanks like joke?
Go feed sheeps!
The fact that they nerf some tanks, it does not mean those tanks were OP, just people crying they dont know how to pen a tank or those tanks were played too much, WG strategy!
If you are a bad player, does not mean certain tanks are OP! You seem to be the sheep crying on forums!
Everyone is talking about Chief Mk6 and MBT-B, but let’s address the elephant in the room – the upcoming tier 8-9 premiums are “completely ready for release” from the get-go!! Like wtf?? Will there be no testing on the live servers at all? I’m talking about Vercingetorix, Pancernik and CS-53/56. We all love to throw shit on the super testers, but they do provide valuable Live-Servers data of the tanks’ performance to WG. I truly hope that’s a mistake.
they are useless, and most of the time sub 50%er bots
This is true
If I would be in WG shoes, I would sell the Chieftain in the same type of auction as they did with Waffle E100. I think it would go for those 100K gold easily, as it has been over hyped for almost 10 years now.
If the MTB-B is labeled as “Promotional” and does not appear in a Loot Box or Assembly Hall, it will definitely not be good and certainly not “overpowered”. My money is on him appearing in the new campaigns coming at the end of the year.
