Yeah, this isn't the most overpowered tank in the game, it doesn't have a laser for a gun, it has awful hull armour, a slow firing rate and two cupolas that get shredded frequently BUT it looks so damn cool, it hits like a truck, shrugs off most shots hulldown and zips about like nobody's business. I love mine to bits and I've had it since way back when it only had 3 degrees of gun depression and was marketed as a budget type 59. It's changed a lot since then, as have I, and so has the game, but I still regularly play with it. It's been through thick and thin and can stand toe-to-toe with many of its rivals - and did I mention it has preferential matchmaking?

In my opinion, it's slightly worse than its Type 59 brother. The gun only hits targets at a distance if RNGesus has blessed you. However, its gun with 390 alpha can punish equal and lower tier mediums and lights very effectively. If you want to perform well in the tank, HEAT is the way to go.

Really good 3 mark
