[ST] A43 BP Prototype & T54E2
Дата: 14.06.2019 18:59:44
DomoSapien: Tankers, we've got two new tanks hitting Supertest today: The A43
BP Prototype, and the T54E2. The A 43 BP Prototype is a
British Heavy, and it's essentially the Churchill's big
brother.
The prototype of the Black
Prince is sort of a line extension to the Churchill. It has more
armor (150 mm at the front of both its turret and hull) and a gun
of a larger caliber. The British 17-pounder is capable of firing
rapidly (11 shots per minute) and has an excellent penetration of
171 mm with a basic round. To crack the armor of an especially
tough opponent, you may employ an APCR able to pierce 239 mm of
steel. Everything goes with a price, and in the case of the
Black Prince it’s dynamics. This Brit is slow and cumbersome, with
a top speed of just 20 km/h. The hull traverse of 20 degrees per
second lets any fast tank drive circles around it, which will take
a bit of getting-used-to. The A43 BP prototype was made to
slowly (but stylishly) push through enemy defensive lines. Its
armor allows it to mitigate punches laid by vehicles of the same
tier, and its armament is enough to damage any foe. The only thing
keeping the Black Prince from totally dominating every battlefield
is its
sluggishness. ______________________________________ We've
got an American Heavy Boi joining Supertest as well, although it's
more of a Heavium than the A43 BP; The T54E2.
If it had a name, that
would be “Mr. Versatility” as this Yank’s weak sides are balanced
by the strong ones. For example, its gun has a dispersion of 0.4
which is far from ideal. But with an armor penetration of 226 mm
(with a basic shell) the operator of the T54E2 won’t have to
thoroughly aim at the weakest points of enemy vehicles. Penetrating
opponents of the same tier won’t be a problem at all. Sure, the
combination of an alpha strike of 390 points and 14-second reload
time isn’t outstanding. But the sheer ability to dish out stable
amounts of damage with basic rounds is worth much. As for the
survivability, the average hull protection of the T54E2 (150 mm at
the front) is compensated for by its thick (up to 240 mm) turret
armor. Even though the turret still has a weak spot (the
commander’s cupola), the gun depression of -10 degrees allows for
more ways of hiding it. T54E2 is reasonably fast, with a top
speed of 45 km/h and a specific power of more than 16 hp per ton of
weight. This lets it take key positions and benefit from its armor
penetration and gun depression angle. This tank is a well-rounded
fighter, being a jack of all trades but a master of none. It may
assist attacking allies or bolster its side’s defenses, being sheer
Versatility on tracks.
