[Supertest] Soviet TD Changes

CabbageMechanic: Next up for Supertest: big changes to the lesser-used Soviet TD Branch. Details: Object 263 moves to Tier IX (with the same armor), SU-122-54 moves to Tier VIII, SU-101 – to Tier VII (we’ll take away its M62-C2 as it’s too powerful for Tier VII), and SU-101M1 will be removed altogether.


At Tier X there will be a completely new vehicle with a rear-positioned gun - the Object 268 Version 4. This vehicle has excellent front armor, with high alpha-damage and excellent armor penetration. Gun traverse angles allow this tank to “tank” , the Variant has 24 degrees of aim, 12 per each side. Disadvantages: Gun handling is ideal for middle range/brawling – it will be difficult to fire effectively at 400 m.  In addition, the DPM is below average to compensate for its quality alpha and pen.  The mobility of the vehicle is fair - reasonably quick in a straight line but slow to turn.  So as a result we have a fire support vehicle, intended for group play, which hits hard and then protects itself and its allies with its armor. 
 Note: the characteristics and changes are not final and are subject to change by the results of upcoming super tests. Stay tuned and we’ll share more info!
