Dwigt: Greetings tankers, Three new vehicles will soon head to
the Supertest!A Soviet Tier VIII medium tank, the Object 274a,
the British Tier VIII tank destroyer, GSOR 1008 and finally
the Italian Tier X medium tank, Carro da Combattimento
45t. Today, we'll briefly talk about each of these new
vehicles. Object 274a
The key features of this tank are its good
protection and powerful gun. The front turret armor reaches 230 mm.
Regarding the hull, its armor plates are sloped at rational angles,
and the effective armor thickness for the upper glacis is about 258
mm. Total HP: 1,200 The 107-mm gun uses a standard AP shell
with armor penetration of 227 mm. Its special APCR shell has the
average armor penetration of 289 mm. The combination of damage per
shot of 320 and reload time of 9 seconds gives this tank one of the
best damage per shot values among other Tier VIII medium tanks.
However, you need to get close to the enemy to realize this
potential because the accuracy of 0.38 and aiming time of 2.7
seconds won't let you deliver sniper fire. The Object 274a
performs best in close-to-mid range combat. Its dynamics
characteristics (maximum speed of 58 km/h and power-to-weight
ration of 17.2 h.p/ton) allows for closing in on the enemy to
realize high damage per minute. At the same time, decent frontal
armor will help you survive while doing so.




GSOR 1008
This tank destroyer combines the advantages of both
classic anti-tank guns and mobile medium tanks. The effective front
armor thickness in certain areas reaches 200 mm, and the vehicle's
durability is 1,400 HP. At the same time, it has high maximum speed
of 60 km/h with the power-to-weight ration of 14.7
h.p./ton. The main feature of the GSOR 1008 is its autoloading
gun with a 4-shell magazine and damage per shot of 320. It takes 32
seconds to reload the magazine, while autoloading one shell takes
1.5 seconds. Combined with excellent gun stabilization when not
moving, accuracy of 0.3, and aiming time of 1.8 seconds, this gun
allows for knocking down the opponents quickly and effectively. Its
standard AP shell penetrates 226 on average, while the average
penetration of its special APCR shell is 321 mm. Depending on
the situation, this vehicle can act together with heavy and medium
tanks. The GSOR 1008 can snipe from the distance or help in close
combat due to quick autoreloader and good gun depression angles,
reaching -11 degrees.



Carro da Combattimento 45t
Like other top-tier Italian vehicles, the Carro da
Combattimento 45t is equipped with an autoreloading mechanism. Its
120-mm gun has a 4-shell magazine with the damage per shot of 400
for each shell. The first shell reloads for 16 seconds, while the
last one reloads 10 seconds. The autoreloading time of one shell is
4 seconds. The armor penetration with a standard AP shell is 248
mm, while a special APCR shell penetrates 320 mm of armor. The
accuracy is 0.38, with aiming time of 3 seconds. Gun depression
angle is -9 degrees. The effective armor thickness of the
turret front and upper glacis is roughly the same and reaches about
300 mm. Total HP is 1,900. Maximum speed is 55 km/h with
power-to-weight ration of 16 h.p/ton. Carro da Combattimento
45t requires restrain and composure. High damage of the
autoreloading mechanism is compensated for with not the most
enjoyable gun shooting parameters. However, excellent gun
depression and decent protection will give enough time to pick a
target. The vehicle's dynamics will allow for taking advantegous
positions at the start of battle and timely react to the changes in
the combat situation. Overall, it particularly depends on players
whether they can unlock the full potential of this top tier Italian
or not.





These vehicles will be tested then introduced in the
game when the time is right. Stats are not finale.Roll out!
