Supertest: M4A2 T-34, Matilda LVT, Pz.Kpfw. M15, Pz.Kpfw. 35 R (Initial Stats)

Four new low tier vehicles are on their way to the Supertest:

The M4A2 T-34 is a Tier V Soviet medium tank.

It is equipped with a powerful 85 mm gun that causes 160 damage per shot. Its standard AP shell penetrates 150 mm on average, while the average penetration of its special APCR shell is 196 mm. The gun has an accuracy of 0.38, aiming time of 2.7 s, and reload time of 6 s, making this tank’s role clear: dealing damage.
The vehicle’s durability is 630 HP. The thickness of the frontal armor plate reaches up to 63.5 mm and the frontal projection of the turret up to 52 mm. Its engine power is 420 h.p. and has a top speed of 52 km/h. The view range is 350 m.

The Matilda LVT is a Tier IV British medium tank.

The vehicle also has a decent 75 mm gun. Its standard AP shell penetrates 91 mm on average, while the average penetration of its special APCR shell is 144 mm. It has a damage per shot of 110 HP, an accuracy of 0.43, and an aiming time of 1.7 s. Its engine power is 190 h.p., has a power-to-weight ratio of 8 h.p./t, and can reach a top speed of 24 km/h. Considering its sub-par mobility but excellent gun, this tank is best played at long range where it can realize its firing potential.

The Pz.Kpfw. M15 is a Tier III German light tank.

It is equipped with a 37 mm gun. Its damage per shot is 40 HP, and it can penetrate armor up to 42 mm with a standard AP shell and up to 74 mm with a special APCR shell. The gun has an accuracy of 0.41, a loading time of 2.3 s, and an aiming time of 1.7 s. The engine power is 250 h.p., with a power-to-weight ratio of 16 h.p./t, and it can reach a top speed of 40 km/h.

The Pz.Kpfw. 35 R is a Tier II German light tank.

Its damage per shot is 55 HP, and it can penetrate armor up to 50 mm with a standard AP shell and up to 78 mm with a special AP shell.

Spirit of War Challenge: 3D Style “Spirit of War” for the 🇸🇪 Strv K – Pictures

Style for the Swedish Strv K. Style treated as non-historical, valued at 5,000 gold.

A new group of elements has been added to the filter: “Fictitious Elements” – Styles and fictitious elements that are not likely to exist.

– “The path of war has no end. Nobody remembers where it started and nobody knows where it leads. In this path, the sword has transformed into a musket and arrows have transformed into bullets. Chain mail gave way to plate armor, and this to a tank. From here you can look at the walls of Agincourt and Stalingrad, or the jagged banks of the Somme and the burning fields of Prokhorovka. Pregnant fog over the Poltava and burning hot sands of El Alamein. For centuries, those who walked the path of war became memories written in history textbooks. I hear the voices of millions of heroes who never made it to the end of their path. I stood by them at every moment. I have witnessed pain and despair, but also endurance and courage, bravery and compassion. I am a steel-clad warrior. I am a witness, but also a chronicler. I am … the one who remembers. “ Continue reading “Spirit of War Challenge: 3D Style “Spirit of War” for the 🇸🇪 Strv K – Pictures”
