Is the T44-100 any good?

Draschel: The side screens are not thick like IS6, but certainly are there. Can protect you against low tier HEAT derpers like KV1S or M4AE2. Will also detonate HE shells away from your tank, reducing their damage. This can save your life, against something like Type 5 HESH, or FV183 - and will severely reduce the effectiveness of flankers using HE like M41 GF and EBR75.  T54 Mod 1 isn't as good as T44100. The gun handling is less, the DPM is less, the mobility is less (44 speed cap)  T44100 also has significantly better reverse.  All 54 Mod1 sports is better armor
