Model and Armor:
Oh my god, this thing might balance the OI-Experimental with its 105mm❤
sure it will, depending in the soft stats of the 105mm it can even be the most OP tier 5 medium in the game,
104 pen and 350 dmg, thats really alot for tier 5. if you put a +25% RNG roll you could get in a shot the max dmg of 437,5.
350 damage and 100-ish pen is nothing special, you’ll find that on each of the three tier 5 MTs with a derp. The caveat is that for those it’s their HEAT gold ammo, and for this one it likely isn’t.
yup, and that is the problem, it is normal ammo, what means you can afford spaming it, and 100-ish pen is more than enought to deal with alot of tanks, considering its a derp, you can spam HE in the ones the 100-ish pen is not enought, and your prem ammo does 130 pen, same as the OI-exp, but 350 dmg so all in all, depending on the soft stats of the 105mm, its pretty OP for its tier =P, and the 75mm gun does 150 dmg any other med does 110 – 120 max with a 75mm on tier 5 =P
Eh, credit cost isn’t something to be put into the equation. People who want to spam HEAT on an M4, Pz 4 or G1R will make sure they have the credits for doing it one way or another. Regardless, it doesn’t directly affect combat ability.
The 30mm extra pen on the other hand /is/ a factor, and it’s all going to come down to the soft stats to see if this thing beats out the other tier 5 MTs (the ones with howitzers).
Of course, O-I Exp and KV-1 have 120mm/122mm derps with 140mm pen and 360/370 damage that still beat this gun in raw pen/damage, so this gun isn’t actually too terrible for the balance at tier 5.
Cant reply to renarde for some reason. its not just that. With the derp usually comes poor gun handling and accuracy and that compensates somewhat for the monster gun it is when you fire HEAT.
The gun on the OI exp and (presumably) this however are normal guns, so they don’t suffer that problem. And thus makes them way better than their derpy counterparts
Mark, there is so far nothing to indicate that this is not another howitzer, while the damage values seem to imply that it is as it has the same alpha values as the other 105mm howitzers. It might have a slightly longer barrel to explain the higher penetration (because velocity) but so far everything points at this gun being a derp.
In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the ‘same’ 105mm gun as used on the Sav M/43, the tier 4 TD, and that’s confirmed to be a howitzer AFAIK (tier 5 has a 120mm howitzer).
The gun on the images is likely the 75mm gun, as it’s the one that has a full set of stats.
remember, the KV-2 used to be tier 5 a long time ago
Why is gun elevation and depression never in the stats?
-15/+25 according to other blogs, probably pretty likely since swedes had their own tactics of building hills and hiding behind them using usane in depression to hide most of the tank.
Tier 5? With those stats? It will probably not hit live like this. Fast, decent anti-HE armor, and great gun selection. Looking forward to playing it!
Ooooh the ssofftstats… never forget the softstats m8…
Its the reason why the Leo 1 has a worse gun than the t62…
i do like the looks of that 105. the 57 could also be cool, if it has good soft stats
105 looks interesting…
Why does this thing just shit on all other tanks ? 75 mm that does 150 dmg at that tier..screw that…german 75 does freaking 110 dmg…panthers long long long 75/l100 does 135…what does this fire ? uranium depleted sabot shells ffs…
Oh boy, another derp med- hey wait a minute, this thing is an actual gun?
Well shit. And here I thought derp Mediums had a nice time. Swedish line looks fairly interesting so far.
Swedish tanks seem to have pretty high alpha for their calibers. 350 from a 105mm gun at that tier is very high, same with the 75mm. I wonder if this is a continuous trend for the tanks or a one off thing.
Have they just written up the upgraded guns. Because I can’t see the gun it saw service with in the list.
I think that the 75 featured here is the 75 it saw service with and that the cannon on the pictures is the 105. But if im wrong i think the lago will get the original short 75 along with an upgraded turret.
All hail Bofors guns?
Do somebody knows how many crew members do i need for SWE tanks? I want to keep my women from PM for SWE but i can have 4. I dont want to grind all that missions for sky cancers.
The top tiers will only have 3 crew
Bofors best gun maker, aparently.
Looks like the usual tier 5 med with the usual choice between regular/derp gun. If you like the PzIV H and M4 Sherman you will probably like this one because it will have basicaly the same gameplay.
G1 R still the best derp tonk in my book, unless this one also has a very high shell velocity. G1 R is so surprisingly accurate with those fast shells 😛
