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:
- Very small size makes it easy to get around and avoid shots.
- 320 mm penetrating HEAT-FS ammo should be able to take care of any expected enemies
- Has access to smoke grenades and smoke shells that will allow it to move around unseen
- Has a roof mounted 7.5 mm that can be good to shoot planes and open top vehicles
Cons:
- Has hullbreak
- Only has 3 crew, a single shot will most likely knock it out
- Only 10-12mm frontal armour, can get penned by .50 cals and other small calibre weapons
- Very low ammo count of 20 shells
- Terrible brakes, you will take 20 meters to stop
- Wheeled vehicle mobility, it's not easy to climb hills
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
