The 43M Turán III was a Hungarian medium tank of World War II. It was developed from the [[Turan II|41M Turán II]] Hungarian medium tank, as Hungary needed tanks that were able to better deal with the well-armoured Soviet [[T-34 (Family)|T-34s]] and [[KV-1 (Family)|KV-1s]] that Hungary was fighting on the Eastern Front. The Turán III was equipped with a long barrel 75 mm 43.M gun that could effectively deal with the well-armoured Soviet tanks, unlike the short barrel 75 mm gun of the Turán II. To house this large and powerful gun, the Turán III had a new, larger turret than the Turán II. The Turán III also had significantly more armour than the Turán II.

Description

The 43.M Turan III is a rank III Hungarian medium tank with a battle rating of 4.0 (AB/RB/SB) in the Italian research tree. It was introduced in Update "Sons of Attila" as part of the Hungarian branch of the Italian tech tree.

The 43M Turán III was a Hungarian medium tank of World War II. It was developed from the 41M Turán II Hungarian medium tank, as Hungary needed tanks that were able to better deal with the well-armoured Soviet T-34s and KV-1s that Hungary was fighting on the Eastern Front. The Turán III was equipped with a long barrel 75 mm 43.M gun that could effectively deal with the well-armoured Soviet tanks, unlike the short barrel 75 mm gun of the Turán II. To house this large and powerful gun, the Turán III had a new, larger turret than the Turán II. The Turán III also had significantly more armour than the Turán II.

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Powerful gun; can easily destroy any target it faces with one well-placed shot
  • Gun is quite stable, making firing on the move easier
  • Good gun depression
  • Excellent mobility
  • Incredible reverse speed; can reverse as fast as it can go forwards
  • Has smoke grenades
  • Has mesh side skirt armour on the turret and hull which protects against HEAT and HE projectiles
  • Armour can be surprisingly effective, despite not being particularly thick
  • 5 crew members and spaced-out ammo racks mean higher survivability

Cons:

  • Large profile
  • Turret traverse speed is not very fast
  • Armour is not very strong and reliable
  • Only 32 rounds of ammunition means you may run out and need to replenish

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
