WoT Supertest: Taurus CAT

The Taurus CAT is a Tier VIII British tank destroyer. This vehicle is quite unconventional for both its nation and type. It is the first British vehicle with a hydraulic suspension, and the first vehicle with Siege mode to feature an autoloader.

The Taurus CAT enters and leaves Siege mode in 1 second, and retains respectable mobility while in the mode (with a top speed of 20 km/h). Outside of Siege mode, the top forward speed is 65 km/h, and the top reverse speed is 25 km/h.

The mobility and firepower of this TD (together with non-stellar accuracy of 0.35 in Siege mode) encourage you to play it aggressively. The autoloader holds 4 rounds, each causing 320 HP of damage, and the intra-clip reload time is 2 seconds, so you can dish out 1,280 HP of damage in just 6 seconds. The penetration values are 280 mm with standard shells, 320 mm with special shells, and 105 mm with HE shells.

  1. I’m looking forward to the ultimate tank! It will have three gun barrels on the turret, one with a 183mm caliber (4-round autoloader with 1-second intraclip reload) and a twin 120mm caliber gun, naturally with a double-shot mechanism (6-second reload per barrel), 16 degrees of gun depression, a top speed of 60 km/h (80 km/h with rocket boost), plus two secondary 105mm He-guns and armor like a Type 5 Heavy. Did I forget something? Oh yeah, the Waffenträger’s teleportation capability, a usable view range of 450 meters, plus a standard camouflage value of 30%, with an aiming time of 1.6 seconds at a dispersion of 0.09. Man, I can already see this thing in my mind’s eye, and if it doesn’t cost more than 30,000 gold, I’ll get it.
