WoT 1.26 Common Test: Vz. 68 Squall In-Game Screenshots & Historical Reference

Vz. 68 Squall (Czechoslovakia, Tier-8, LT, premium, mechanic: autocannons with unique firing mechanics) will be tested in random battles by Developers, Supertesters and the head of the balance department personally (50+ battles).
Previously the tank was called: Vz. 68

Historical Reference:

In response to the Western European program of air-transportable tanks (Spähpanzer), the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic considered several variants of armament for its own light vehicles.

Among which the most promising was considered to be a twin installation of 30-57 mm autocannons with sub-caliber ammunition with increased armor-piercing ability. Initially, the list of requirements for the tank under development included the ability to move on water, but with the increase in armor, this faded into the background. The emphasis was also placed on high mobility and a small frontal projection, ensuring the survival of the vehicle on the battlefield. The project was not implemented in metal for economic reasons.
