At the moment, more than 290 military vehicles of the past are available in World of Tanks. Each tank has its own strengths and weaknesses, but there are some vehicles that are extremely comfortable to play on; these tanks really bend over backwards. We have selected for you the best tanks at each level so that you know what exactly to buy in order to have the greatest influence on the outcome of the battle. In general, if you want to bend over, read the material!

Before we start, let me tell you about how the tanks for the material were selected. Server-wide statistics for each tank were taken as a basis. The highest win percentage was counted. However, some corrections were made, because there were situations when the equipment was new and only experienced players upgraded it, which is why the percentage of victories on the tank was much higher without any reason. In addition, the material did not include such vehicles as, for example, the KV-220, the statistics of which are very high, but the tank is now impossible to get.

Some levels housed several tanks, because it was very difficult to choose the best one.

First level - MS-1 (49.08% wins on the server)

The undisputed leader comes from the USSR - MS-1. Thanks to its complex of characteristics, Moska mercilessly oppresses newcomers and faggots who have just entered the game and have tens of thousands of battles behind them.

The MS-1 does not have armor (at the first level no one has it), amazing dynamics or accuracy... But a 45mm gun can deprive the enemy of 47 HP, which is quite a lot. In addition, the tank is small in size, which reduces the likelihood of being hit.

Second level - PzKpfw 38H735 (f) (56.53% wins on the server)

Although I promised not to include in the article tanks that are impossible to obtain, I simply cannot help but talk about the Minimouse, since this unusually protected tank can simply brutally destroy random battles thanks to its luxurious armor.

Pay attention to the win percentage on the server - 56.53% is very, very high. And all because the PzKpfw 38H735 (f) has absolutely amazing 40mm thick all-round armor. Classmates by level break through Minimouse with great difficulty, and first-level machines may not even try to do this (unless the same MS-1 can try and it is unlikely to succeed).

In addition, this 40mm armor is located not only in the forehead and sides but also, attention, in the stern. Among the disadvantages of the PzKpfw 38H735 (f) it should be noted its low speed and not very high penetration. However, these shortcomings are easily compensated by the luxurious advantages of the car.

But enough choking on your saliva, let's move on to the machines that you can buy and on which you can bend no worse than the PzKpfw 38H735 (f).

T18 (50.43% wins on the server)

Do you want to bend at the second level? Please, there is nothing complicated about this, for this you will need straight arms and a small accessory in the form of an American T18 tank destroyer. Why is T18 better than its classmates? It's simple - thanks to the huge one-time damage, a tank destroyer can literally one-shot enemies, and thanks to its excellent speed, you can quickly react to the situation on the battlefield, which changes at lightning speed in the sandbox. It is also worth mentioning the good 51mm armor of the tank destroyer, which can save you from shots in difficult times.

Of course, it was not without its drawbacks. You should always remember that you are a tank destroyer, not a tank - the T18 does not have a turret, so an enemy that gets behind the lines can cause you a lot of problems. And the enemy can get used to the board, which is also not very pleasant.

And one more thing - to guarantee high damage, carry Serbogold with you, if, of course, you have enough silver.

T2 Light Tank (53.95% win rate on the server)

If T18 is created for those who like to one-shot the enemy, then T2 Light Tank will appeal to players who love fast rides. This is one of the fastest tanks in the game, so you can always hope that the tank's engine will help you out in difficult times. For example, when a base is captured, you can quickly return and knock down the capture.

In addition, in addition to speed, the T2 Light Tank boasts an unusual weapon - a machine gun that destroys 12 units of HP in one hit. If you know how to use these weapons correctly, you can work real miracles.

The tank also has disadvantages, for example, a complete lack of armor and not very high maneuverability, which will play a cruel joke on you more than once.

T2 Light Tank in all its glory, watch video

As you can see, at the second level you can choose between two tanks. Consider what style of play you like.

Third level - FCM36 Pak40 (59.02%)

A phenomenally high percentage of victories on this French tank destroyer FCM36 Pak40! This is not surprising - powerful weapons and good armor (machine guns are not scary) allow you to work real miracles.

In addition, the PT unit boasts phenomenal visibility at its level - as much as 400 meters! You see the enemy when the enemy does not even suspect that he is glowing like Christmas tree. Properly using the visibility and power of the FCM36 Pak40 gun, it can carry through the toughest battles. And don’t be scared by the fact that the FCM36 Pak40 costs real money, the price is not very high, only 850 gold coins. Believe me, this is a small price to pay for bending.

The disadvantages include low speed and not very large horizontal aiming angles. The disadvantages are not very significant; the advantages outweigh them several times.

Level four - Hetzer (49.45% win rate on the server)

At the fourth level, it was quite difficult to choose the most bending tank, since almost all the vehicles are quite average in their characteristics. However, an interesting tank destroyer at this level is also called “Hetzer”. True, for comfortable and effective bending you will need a lot of silver. Thick frontal armor and an excellent land mine, capable of depriving an enemy of 350 HP, make Hetzer a real monster. Of course, for a comfortable game you need to shoot with serbogold in order to maximize your chances of inflicting those same 350 units of damage.

The vehicle is quite unique and in inept hands the Hetzer will infuriate the tank driver with its low speed.

Fifth level

KV-1 (49.1% win rate)

Don’t look at the fact that the KV-1 has such a low win percentage on the server. This is due to the fact that the tank is extremely popular, and the statistics on it correspond most closely to the concept of “balance”. Excellent protection at its level, excellent weapons, but poor mobility and visibility - these are the key features of this tank. Getting into the TOP, the KV-1 drags the battle and is the main combat unit of the team.

View about KV-1

S-35 CA (52.21% win rate on the server)

The second vehicle for bending at the fifth level is the S-35 CA, which has absolutely lethal weapons - a 105mm gun can upset the enemy by as much as 300 hit points, which is a record among its classmates. Huge number! If an evil VBR throws you to the top of the list, then you can be punished mercilessly.

The machine's disadvantages are standard - lack of armor, low speed and low strength. But believe me, these shortcomings are compensated by crazy damage. And the visibility of the S-35 CA is excellent - we can see as much as 400 meters. If you install an enlightenment and a pipe... Soviet blind tanks will suffer, suffer a lot;).

Open spoiler

AT 2 (52.23% win rate)

This tank destroyer is suitable only for those players who adore the sound of shells bouncing off them. Thanks to the record thickness of the armor, AT 2 survives where the rest of the team would have already merged. Just imagine, at the fifth level we have access to as much as 203mm of frontal armor! Damn, this is so cool that you can’t even ask for anything better.

The stern and sides, of course, are less armored, but 101mm is also very helpful.

What characteristics of the AT 2 were sacrificed for the Serb? Weapons and speed. We move with the speed of a turtle and bite the enemy with the strength of a mosquito. Which, however, does not prevent this tank destroyer from bending brutally, especially on city maps where there are many narrow passages.

Playing on AT 2 became even more comfortable after update 0.8.6, since the evil SU-26 imba was nerfed. Feel free to buy if you like armored tanks. A lot of emotions are guaranteed.

Sixth level

KV-1S (49.06%)

A recognized imba in World of Tanks. The most brutal one-time damage of 390 units, enemy tanks burst in two shots. In addition to an excellent gun, Kvass has good mobility, which is quite unexpected for a tank that deals such wild damage.

The advantages are compensated by not very good armor (but there are ricochets, and quite often) and a high probability of fire (perks will help you).

The most popular tank in the game - it’s not for nothing that the “kvaskaktank” meme is alive and well. "Kwaskaktank, can it hold a blow?"

Look

M18 Hellcat (51.31% win rate)

High speed and excellent weapons are a deadly combination, especially in the realities of the World of Tanks. The Cat from Hell M18 is capable of not only dragging out battles, but also giving the tanker completely new emotions, because it is in this tank destroyer that you will find speed and a good gun. But a weak penetration is not a problem.

M18 Hellcat is a chic alternative to Kvass.

Open video

Level seven - PzKpfw VI Tiger (P) (50.19% win rate)

The seventh level, like the fourth, is also difficult to choose a bending technique. Many, of course, will prefer the Soviet IS, but I choose the German PzKpfw VI Tiger (P), which I advise you to do too, because if you use this wonderful machine correctly, you will enjoy every battle.

Excellent armor penetration and good 200mm armor make the tank truly interesting. Of course, low mobility and low one-time damage should be taken into account. But even despite these disadvantages, the PzKpfw VI Tiger (P) can bend. And if you place the tank in a diamond shape, enemy shells will regularly bounce off the vehicle.

Watch the video

Eighth level - IS-3 (48.69%)

And again we have an undisputed leader at our level. Quite a rare occurrence, but the IS-3 at level eight is the best tank. It has everything - a great weapon, good armor, mobility... The disadvantages are very insignificant - poor visibility and long aiming times are easily offset by its advantages.

Feel free to buy if you are looking for the most bending tank at the eighth level. The IS-3 is especially transformed after purchasing the 122 mm BL-9 gun, which increases armor penetration to 225 mm.

Look

Ninth level

T54E1 (51.83% win rate)

Despite its weak armor, the T54E1 is still capable of firing randomly, using its loading drum, which is capable of delivering 1560 damage. In addition, the T54E1 also has good dynamics, allowing it to quickly respond to a changing situation on the battlefield.

Show video

T-54 (49.32% win rate)

Armament, armor, speed - the T-54 has no disadvantages, only advantages. An extremely nice tank in World of Tanks, which is capable of bending not only in straight hands.

Show

T57 Heavy Tank (51.66% win rate)

And again we have a relatively new guest American tank with loading drum. Powerful weapons, good dynamics and very fast reloading of the drum are compensated by weak armor and a small margin of safety.

However, if you don’t expose yourself to enemy shots, you can hit record numbers in the “damage” column. One of the most enjoyable tanks at the moment.

Open video spoiler

AMX 50 Foch (155) (53.54% win rate)

How can we do without Focha, who after patch 0.8.6 became especially popular due to the almost complete absence of artillery in battles. It has excellent armor, a loading drum for three shells and excellent dynamics. The AMX 50 Foch (155) is a perfect example of how the most significant advantages can be present in one machine.

The disadvantages are insignificant - the lack of armor in the stern and sides, as well as the low margin of safety, practically does not play a role in random battles. Foch 155 is now bending like never before.

Display Hide Contents

Well, friends, that's all for me. Of course, not everyone will agree with this list of tanks, but I tried to collect the equipment taking into account all factors as much as possible - the percentage of wins on the server, player voting, as well as personal feelings and observations. But in the end I will say one thing - even the most disgusting tank can bend. It all depends on your hands, the characteristics of the car are in the background, they only complement your skill.

Good luck in your battles and quickly level up!

In World of Tanks, Tier 5 medium tanks are some of the most popular vehicles in the game. They attract absolutely all World of Tanks players. These are already quite serious machines, capable of withstanding opponents of a higher level, on which knowledge of the mechanics of the game and control of combat vehicles is achieved.

• German VK 16.02 Leopard with a powerful automatic cannon, excellent dynamics and good visibility.
• American M 24 Chaffee - high speed, excellent maneuverability, traditionally good gun elevation angles and stabilization.
• Among the medium tanks is the Soviet T 34, fast, maneuverable, with a gun with good penetration and high DPM.
• Pz.IV H - excellent visibility, the presence of a 105-mm howitzer, the most accurate at the level.
• The M4 Sherman is a well-known American, maneuverable, with an optimal set of characteristics and with two guns to choose from - a conventional cannon for such tanks, or a “high explosive” that annihilates almost any classmate with one shot.

It is worth mentioning the tank destroyer - one of the most balanced vehicles in the game - the American T67, capable of defeating the best premium Tier 5 tank. Everything about it is perfect - an excellent weapon, visibility, maneuverability, speed that allows you to instantly move from flank to flank, a low silhouette and good camouflage. All this makes this tank destroyer a dangerous weapon in the hands of both experienced players and beginners.

Buy a premium tank tier 5

The most prominent representatives of heavy tanks in the game are the Soviet KV-1 with amazing armor and a great selection of guns, and the American T 1 Heavy with strong frontal armor and a powerful gun. If you don’t know which premium Tier 5 tank is best to buy, pay attention to the British Matilda BP, the Soviet KV 220-2 and Churchill III, the German Pz. T25 and Pz.V/IV, American T14 and M4A2E4.

In our store you will find the best premium level 5 tank for farming, with which it is easier and faster to earn silver.

In the World of Tanks game, the most important thing is the tanks. Here are real-life combat vehicles presented, each of which has its own unique history. This is partly why this game is so popular in the world. Every player finds a good tank for himself in World of Tanks and calls it ideal. But in this review we will look at the most attractive cars that are fun to play and fight for the victory of your team.

It is quite difficult to select the 10 best World of Tanks tanks. After all, each car is good in its own way. Some tanks will be very fast, some will be powerful, and some will combine both high speed and power. And what criteria are used to determine the efficiency of the unit? However, each level has its own most successful combat vehicles, which we will try to highlight.

Let us immediately note that we will begin our review of good tanks in World of Tanks right from the fifth level, since below this level frivolous combat vehicles are used. They can hardly be called effective and interesting. In the WOT game, serious battles begin from the fifth level and above.

Level 5

To summarize, there are only 3 best tanks in World of Tanks at level 5. The first of them is the Soviet KV-1 unit. This is a fairly well-known Soviet machine, which had great success on the battlefields against Nazi Germany. This tank has a solid historical component, powerful all-round armor and versatile weapons. All this gave the tank a serious reputation in the game. Almost every older generation gamer considers it their duty to buy this tank and upgrade it to the maximum.

The second best tank in World of Tanks 2017 is also the Soviet T-34. She also has rich story. It is believed that the T-34 combat vehicles changed the course of the war. In the game, this tank is valued for its high maneuverability, as well as for its 57 mm ZiS-4 gun, which easily penetrates armor but causes little damage. In the WOT game there are two popular development branches for medium and heavy tanks. At the fifth level, gamers have the opportunity to purchase similar combat vehicles.

There is also a cool one, but it’s quite difficult to get. In the game, users call it an “imba,” that is, a machine that is out of balance. Has all-round armor. It can barely be penetrated by a level 5 cannon. Even “sixes” often cannot damage the armor of the KV-220 tank.

Level 5 Bonus

A bonus at the fifth level is the T67 combat vehicle - this is an American anti-tank self-propelled gun with high speed of movement, stealth, low silhouette, and most importantly, high armor penetration. The unit easily destroys tanks of its level with one shot.

Level 6

At the sixth level, the best tanks in World of Tanks are represented by one Soviet and two British combat vehicles. It’s worth starting with the legendary T-34-85, monuments to which are in many Russian cities.

T-34-85 is medium tank The USSR, which has maneuverability and a good weapon capable of penetrating strong armor. High accuracy, rate of fire, and maneuverability make the unit popular. His demand is also explained by his rich combat history, but this does not play a role in his fighting qualities, which are at their best. With the right tactics, positioning, and ammo, many experienced players have won victories in this Tier 6 tank against more powerful Tier 8 tanks.

The second good tank in World of Tanks at level 6 is the English Cromwell. The car is good for extras. Unlike the Soviet T-34-85, the British Cromwell has no armor at all, which is why the vehicle has enormous speed and a high-speed gun. All this gives a significant advantage to the player who, without any problems, “shines” enemy tanks for his team.

The third tank of the level is the Sherman Firefly. This combat vehicle has a cool OQF 17-pdr Gun Mk. VII, which allows you to effectively fight even against older tanks of the 8th level.

Level 6 Bonus

The bonus at this level is the Soviet KV-2 tank with very powerful armor and an M-10 152 mm cannon. This vehicle is capable of fighting even with level 10 units, not to mention combat vehicles of its own level. However, getting this tank is quite difficult. Therefore, it is extremely rare in the game, which cannot be said about the T-34-85. This is one of the most popular models, which is in the arsenal of almost every player.

Level 7

According to many gamers, the seventh level of the game is the most balanced. Consequently, it is difficult to single out equipment that would have significant advantages over other combat vehicles.

The first good tank in World of Tanks at level seven is the IS or IS-2. Both cars are almost identical to each other. Therefore, we will add them to this list. The IS is one of the most popular tanks in the game and is quite famous due to its powerful gun, mobility and armored turret. If such a tank of the seventh level finds itself in a battle with equal vehicles and tanks of a lower level, then the allied team has an easy time - the IS always goes straight into battle. And often this ends well. If the IS gets into battle with tanks of a higher level, then shooting from cover is a good tactic that also brings results.

The second unit is the Tiger I. This German heavy tank took part in World War II. It also has a rich history, and in-game its execution is simply amazing. The vehicle has 1500 hit points and is equipped with a Kw.K gun. 43 L/71. Playing on such a tank is pleasant and fun. But if a vehicle gets into battle with tanks of a higher level, then tactics need to be developed as for anti-tank artillery.

The third best vehicle is the T29 heavy tank with powerful armor that sometimes even level 9 vehicles cannot penetrate. Of course it has its advantages, but weak sides are also present. A good balance between armor, mobility and damage makes this vehicle almost universal and convenient for use on the battlefield, which explains the popularity of the tank.

Premium tank level 7

At level 7, the best premium tank in World of Tanks is the so-called “Gatling gun”, or “flea” - this is the German E-25 anti-tank self-propelled gun. It's a very small car and hard to get into. It causes a lot of problems for clumsy and “blind” vehicles such as Soviet TT tanks. The E-25 does little damage. However, the rate of fire and accuracy infuriate opponents who fall under the gun of this “flea.” Unfortunately, this car has become so popular that it is no longer even on sale. However, there are no fewer of them on the battlefield, because those players who managed to buy it or win it for completing tasks actively use it to “farm” money.

The seventh level is so rich in cool tanks that the following vehicles are worth highlighting separately:

1. T-34-1.
2. Spähpanzer SP I C.
3. LTTB.
4. M41 Walker Bulldog.

All these models should also be on this list.

Level 8

At this level, there are already quite serious tanks that take part in company battles, global maps, and fortified areas.

In World of Tanks best tank Level 8 is IS-3. This vehicle is ideal for all of the above battle modes due to its frontal armor on the turret and hull, high-quality gun, low silhouette and mobility. All this makes such a tank successful on the battlefield.

In second place is the FCM 50t - a very difficult machine to play on which beginners will constantly lose. It is a slow and large tank without armor that is easy to destroy. However, experienced players set records with this tank again and again. As an analogue, we can offer AMX Chasseur de chars. This car has even weaker armor. However, the camouflage factor of this tank is high, making it difficult to detect. The model also has a very high speed, which is guaranteed by the Maybach HL 295 F engine with 1200 horsepower. Among the best medium tanks in World of Tanks, the AMX Chasseur de chars deserves attention first of all. You just need to know how to play it, and such a machine cannot be recommended for combat to a beginner.

The AMX 50100 is the next best Tier 8 tank and is often found in company battles and fortified areas. Such a combat vehicle is capable of destroying any tank of its class in 1-2 shots and quickly “escaping” from the scene of the crime. This is exactly how most players try to use the machine. The tank's biggest drawback is its long reload time, lasting 50 seconds. During this time, the tank is “meat” for the enemy. The second weak point is the lack of armor. However, this is typical for many French cars.

Level 8 Bonus

Bonus tanks of the eighth level are the British-made Charioteer tank destroyer and the Japanese medium tank STA 1. These are hidden combat vehicles that are perfectly camouflaged. Therefore, it is appropriate to use them as support for allied tanks that are fighting on the main battlefield.

Level 9

The improved tank VK 45.02 (P) Ausf is an imba (that is, an unbalanced vehicle), which, with its new durable armor, represents one of the best tanks at later levels. The technique perfectly holds back the enemy’s onslaught and can be at the forefront of the attack. However, it is important for her not to “glow”. After all, the sides of the tank are very weak, and a shell hit from the side will be fraught bad consequences. But mobility partly solves this problem.

The second model is the German medium tank E 50. This is a universal vehicle that can suddenly open up in an unexpected area of ​​the map, coming from behind enemy lines. It can also be used as a heavy tank for frontal attack. Thanks to high mobility and a powerful, accurate gun, playing the “epis” (as this model is called by players) is a lot of fun. This machine gives the player many options for fighting, and he himself decides which tactics to choose. This opens up great opportunities for an experienced gamer, but even a beginner will find it quite pleasant to drive this tank. However, if a player has reached level 9, then he can hardly be called a beginner.

M103 is the third best heavy tank of tier 9. This American example has high armor at the front, which can withstand hits from large calibers. Therefore, it is appropriate to use it in battle as the main penetrating force. And if the map allows, then due to its good mobility the tank allows you to play “cat and mouse” with enemies.

Level 9 Bonus

The bonus vehicle at level 9 is the Soviet medium tank T-54. The developers deteriorated this vehicle several times, reducing the thickness of the hull armor. However, this tank is still very popular and a worthy contender for the title of best. High speed, low silhouette and mobility - these are the advantages of the car.

Level 10

At the last, 10th, level there are the best tanks, which are to some extent the result of the technical development of each nation. All cars of this level have their own “chips” and have good characteristics. Naturally, there are even imbats such as ART-SAU, PT 10 and Waffenträger auf which must be replaced.

In general, it is almost impossible to single out the best World of Tanks tier 10 tank. After all, we are always talking about extremes. There are huge “cast iron walls” that are difficult to break through, there are powerful drum heavy vehicles, as well as diverse medium tanks. Consequently, the player will have to make a choice and determine for himself which tank is better in World of Tanks. After all, the excellent balancing of the game does not allow us to identify the best car, which would be superior to others in all (or at least half) of the parameters. Therefore, among the “dozens” it is impossible to single out just one tank.

Conclusion

Each player determines the best combat vehicle for himself to the best of his abilities and playing style. Some people like to butt heads with heavy tanks, while others prefer to quickly move around the map in order to find targets for their team. The developers very carefully worked out the characteristics of all combat vehicles in the game and eliminated situations where most players choose the same unit, forgetting about the others.

The eighth level of equipment in World of Tanks boasts so many interesting vehicles that not a single top list can stand it. However, the site does not intend to deviate from the “top 5” heading and has selected the most worthy candidates.

Great and mighty IS-3

One of the most recognizable tanks in the game. Living legend. The dream object of any novice tanker, named after Joseph Stalin himself, is the IS-3. Players affectionately call him “Grandfather,” and opponents at any level fear the mighty BL-9 gun, capable of delivering slaps to even the most armored and heaviest vehicles. With excellent dynamics for a heavy tank, a squat silhouette and strong armor, the IS-3 is one of the best tanks in the game. In skillful hands, “Grandfather” is capable of methodically erasing one enemy after another from the face of the earth, turning the outcome of any battle and delivering incredible pleasure to its owner. Let's move on to the advantages of the machine:

An excellent weapon, the best at its level. Excellent armor penetration allows you to fight on equal terms with Tier X equipment, and deal with your classmates almost with your eyes closed.

A kind of armor that can save the car in the most incredible situations.

Excellent speed, maneuverability and dynamics. The IS-3 will not allow itself to be “spinned”, it allows you to quickly change direction, and in some situations play the role of a medium tank.

The low silhouette allows you to take advantage of the terrain while hiding the vulnerable parts of the hull behind the folds of the terrain.

Minuses

High risk of critical damage to the ammunition rack. The disadvantage can be mitigated by upgrading the “Non-contact ammo rack” skill and avoiding the habit of exposing the side to enemy fire.

Poor elevation angles, characteristic of most Soviet vehicles. You won't be able to shoot from behind the hill. But over time, you can get used to it, if you don’t alternate playing on the IS-3 with fighting on American vehicles.

Frequent critical injuries by the driver. One can only feel sorry for this sufferer. Better yet, upgrade the “Jack of All Trades” skill so that the commander can successfully replace a shell-shocked driver.

Small visibility of 350 meters, depriving players of the opportunity to shoot at their own light.

Tactical Tips

The IS-3 is a very versatile and universal tank. So its use is limited, essentially, by the player’s imagination and personal skill. In battle, you can safely try on the role of a classic heavy breakthrough tank or behave like a ST. When you get to the top of the list, it is better to choose standard directions for TT and methodically press on them, using the support of your allies. At the bottom of the list, the IS-3 turns into an effective support for high-level heavies. Covering and being covered by allies, “Grandfather” with his BL-9 is able to help the team almost better than others.

It would take a long time to tell you how to play the IS-3. The main thing is NOT to play it like a tank destroyer. The tank does not tolerate such disrespect for its dignity, and standing in the bushes at the base, you will achieve nothing but mocking ridicule from the team.

Equipment: gun rammer, vertical stabilizer and improved ventilation.

Strong-headed stubborn T-54 region

The younger brother of the legendary "54", T-54 lightweight - light tank Tier VIII, which came to the game with update 0.9.3. A smart scout, capable of standing up for himself in duels with classmates and easily destroying a careless tank destroyer alone. The machine has no obvious disadvantages, has all the characteristics necessary for a comfortable game and rightfully takes its place in our top list.

Advantages of the T-54 region:

The strongest armor among Tier VIII armored vehicles.

Excellent dynamics, maneuverability and acceleration.

Good aiming speed of the gun (2.3 seconds).

Large margin of safety (1200 units).

Decent armor penetration with a basic 175 mm projectile.

Good hull rotation and turret rotation speed.

Excellent rate of fire.

There are only two disadvantages:

Not the best best review at its level - 390 meters.

High silhouette and large dimensions.

Tactical Tips

T-54 region is a classic reconnaissance aircraft. His task - to shine, actively or passively - depends on the map and the level of the team. From the very beginning of the battle, you need to take advantageous positions and try to detect the movement of the main enemy forces. A good LT player always monitors the minimap and has 2-3 escape options. There is no need to fly forward with a saber drawn: a T-54 region destroyed at the beginning of the battle will only benefit the enemy team.

The second half of the battle most often becomes decisive. The task of the owner of the T-54 region is to be in the right place in right time and help allies in destroying enemy equipment. In open space, the tank feels much more comfortable than in city streets or corridor directions on maps.

Equipment: coated optics, improved ventilation, gun rammer/vertical stabilizer.

Teutonic Ninja – Rhm.-Borsig Waffentrager

A secretive killer with a magnificent weapon, excellent camouflage and a complete lack of armor, a full-fledged member of the “We live in the bushes” sect, the German tank destroyer, Rhm.-Borsig Waffentrager could not help but make it onto our list. Covered with pieces of cardboard instead of armor, “Borshchik,” as the tankers affectionately nicknamed him, takes on a well-thought-out strategy and a competent choice of positions. Playing on the third line, as a support and sniper, is a priority. “Borscht” simply has no other roles: any light turns into a world of pain, and a barrage of enemy fire falls on the head of the detected vehicle. Rhm.-Borsig Waffentrager owners are not liked. Moreover, they are hated and feared. But so much the better for you and your team, right? Let's talk about the advantages of the car and its disadvantages.

Pros:

Low profile and one of the best camouflage ratios on the level.

Excellent choice of weapons: a powerful cannon with the highest one-time damage and an accurate, balanced railgun with excellent accuracy and fast aiming.

High maneuverability.

Minuses:

Weak engine.

One of the worst armor in the game.

Small elevation angles.

High level of fighting.

Tactical Tips

“Borshchik” is a machine with pronounced advantages and disadvantages. You need to play it extremely carefully. Remember your most careful play on the predecessor tank destroyer and multiply it three times. The Rhm.-Borsig Waffentrager should always be either behind cover or in bushes that camouflage it. The combat tactics on it are very simple: hide, wait and shoot. Or drive out from behind cover, shoot and hide. By following these two rules, a Borscht player will be able to inflict a lot of damage. imbalance advises choosing the K44/L55 gun with a caliber of 128 millimeters. It is much easier to use without spending credits on “gold” shells.

Equipment: gun rammer, reinforced aiming drives and coated optics/stereo tube.

American station wagon – T32

If the previous vehicle on the list has distinct advantages and disadvantages, then the American T32 heavy tank is the center of balance. A strong middle peasant, capable of more. This is exactly how one can characterize the creation of the thoughts of American designers. The incredibly strong turret and vertical aiming angles characteristic of all “Americans” predetermine the game on this vehicle, making all kinds of shelters and folds of the terrain a real salvation for the T32. Hiding behind a hill and putting up its impenetrable tower, the TT is able to stop attacks from opponents that outnumber the number of allies on the flank. Methodical and calm play from cover and a strong tower is an ideal environment for the “thirty-two”, in which the tank feels like a fish in water.

Advantages:

Great review.

Good hull armor with rational angles of inclination.

Excellent armor in the front of the turret.

Excellent vertical aiming angles.

Good rate of fire (1524 damage per minute).

Minuses:

Weakly protected sides and stern of the hull.

Not the best weapon at the level: penetration and average one-time damage leave much to be desired.

Tactical Tips

T32 is good because it is very easy to use. First of all, you need to choose a direction. The tank has the necessary set of qualities that allow it to both defend and actively attack. It is worth giving preference to places on the map where you can hide your body and show your enemies your impenetrable forehead. Considering the poor penetration rate of a conventional projectile, you will have to load more “gold” supplies into the ammunition load. However, the tactics on the T32 are simple and effective: find cover, hide the hull and shoot your opponents from the turret.

Nimble and dangerous – Spahpanzer Ru 251

Spahpanzer Ru 251 or simply “Rushka” is the pinnacle of the German line of light tanks. The vehicle copes well with its main task, reconnaissance. Solid visibility, low silhouette and the highest top speed in the game. Passive or active reconnaissance, an excellent high-damage weapon and incredible high-explosive shells make this tank one of the best tanks in the game. Let's move on to the pros and cons of the car.

Advantages:

Huge maximum speed – 80 km/h.

Excellent dynamics and turning speed.

Excellent penetration for a Tier VIII tank of 190 units.

Good visibility (400 meters).

Decent stabilization when shooting on the move.

An impressive safety margin of 1200 units.

Minuses:

Lack of armor.

Hits from land mines practically guarantee critical damage and concussion of the crew.

Ramming is contraindicated: its light weight and “cardboard-like” appearance make the Ru-251 a victim in a collision with almost any car.

Tactical Tips

The Ru-251 can do everything on the field that a light tank can do and even more. It makes sense to carry all three types of shells on it, since land mines, when penetrating 102 units, have a one-time damage of 320. That is, land mines can be fired at vulnerable points and at weakly armored tanks.

What to do on the battlefield? Move. Speed ​​is the main advantage of the Rushka and it must be used. But moving around the map should not be chaotic and meaningless. The tank requires careful play. By the middle of the battle, Ru-251 turns from a firefly into a lone hunter. But you should never forget that the best tactics in light tank– tactics according to circumstances. The main thing is to always have an escape route.

This concludes our hit parade. Ahead are the top lists for Tier IX and X vehicles, where you most likely won’t be able to get away with five tanks. Good luck in your battles!

We are all different, some like to play at high levels and prefer fast French STs, some, on the contrary, like to play the sandbox on their MS-1 with four perks, and some even play flash games on .

But many players also like to play at tier V, so we present to you the TOP 5 most popular tier V tanks.

Our rating opens with the “Christmas tree”, presented on the RU server in the amount of 4 million copies. And the tank owes its popularity primarily to its impressive technical specifications, for example, dynamics. After all, what could be more important for a light tank? Yes, T49? The maximum speed of the ELC AMX is 65 km/h, and the Frenchman develops them incredibly easily. Of course, with a mass of less than 7 tons, its specific power is almost 37 hp/t. By comparison, Chaffee only has 25 per ton. But in addition to dynamics, the “Christmas tree” boasts a weapon with alpha 240, delivering 1200 damage per minute, and excellent camouflage. Isn't this a bomb?

4th place – American PT T67 and its 4.15 million copies. I must admit that I myself have never played it, so I cannot express my opinion about it due to its absence. But the tank definitely cannot be bad, being so popular among players. This is also confirmed by the high average win percentage on the server – 50.5%. For the same ELC AMX it is slightly lower. The trump cards of the T67 include a high maximum speed and a simply awesome DPM - 2156 damage per minute, and this is with an alpha of 115. This AT also has good camouflage. All that remains is to find convenient bushes, right?

The top three most popular Tier V vehicles are opened by the SU-85 – 5.26 million PT on the RU server. Its DPM, of course, cannot be compared with the T67's DPM, only 1800 damage per minute. But “drying” has many other advantages. For example, one-time damage, which is as much as 65 units higher and equals 180. We also finally have some kind of frontal armor, which, together with the gun mantlet, can cause difficulties for the enemy. We are talking about 45mm at an angle of 50 degrees. There are also disadvantages, such as a small safety margin and a simply ridiculous viewing radius of 280 meters. But the main thing that the SU-85 can offer us is the path to the TOP Soviet tank destroyers, and even just then it’s definitely worth playing on it.

2nd place – T-34 and more than 7 million tanks on the server. By the way, this is 83 times more than these vehicles were actually produced. Well, tell me, can the legendary T-34 be a mediocre car in the game? Definitely not. Therefore, we have everything to get a thrill from playing it. Excellent dynamic performance, an amazing weapon with a crazy rate of fire and high damage per minute. And also, which is important for those who do not want to buy a premium tank, good profitability. By the way, this also applies to the SU-85.

The most popular Tier V tank in World of Tanks, since we are talking about legends, is the KV-1 and its 7.58 million copies. I should note that for a car that is often the first heavy tank, he has a fairly high win percentage of 49.3%. It has a cool high-explosive weapon, strong armor and, again, excellent profitability.
