Description
The Alecto Mk.I was a British experimental light self-propelled gun, built on the basis of the Light Tank Mk.VIII "Harry Hopkins". Due to delays in development and testing of the Mk.VIII, the first chassis available for conversion into a self-propelled gun appeared only in August 1943. Testing and refinement of the Alecto itself, which began only in 1944, also dragged on considerably; as a result, a sample more or less ready for production only appeared by June 1945, when the need for such a machine had already disappeared, since there were more powerful and refined self-propelled guns available. A small batch of Alectos were produced, the exact number of which is unknown. They did not participate in combat operations, were used for training purposes and were scrapped by 1955.
Introduced during Update "Wind of Change" as a reward for the "Battle for Arachis" event, the Alecto represents a classic "glass cannon". Its 95 mm howitzer is a very powerful weapon, with powerful HE and HEAT shells at its disposal, but it reloads quite slowly and surviving the reloading process in the enemy's sight is unlikely, since it has virtually no armour. However, it has satisfactory mobility and a very small profile, which somewhat increases its chances of survival. Constant repositioning and long-range firing will be crucial, as this is where the Alecto can excel.
General info
Survivability and armour
The armour of the Alecto is quite poor. Rounds fired at you will penetrate, and the front is not even well sloped, so you can't bounce any shot. In addition, your ammo is stored entirely on the sides, so don't expect so do well if you get flanked. However, there is a benefit to poor armour: shots won't spall much (and often APHE won't detonate), so usually it will take multiple shots to take out your crew. But that does mean some rifle-calibre MG rounds can penetrate your armour frontally, so be careful of coaxial armament. Besides, don't forget though that you are open-topped, and are vulnerable to overpressure damage, besides being easy prey for enemy aviation.

History
The Alecto I is a British self propelled gun developed from the Tetrach light tank towards the end of the Second World War. Fitted with a newly developed 3.75 inch howitzer in an open top casemate configuration, the Alecto only completed trials after the war had ended, leading to it serving briefly with the British Army in Germany and the Middle East without seeing any combat.
Devblog
A further development of the Tetrarch light tank concept resulted in the Mk.VIII Harry Hopkins light cruiser tank, which Vickers-Armstrongs was creating to be an airborne tank. Since the mass of the vehicle by the beginning of the production exceeded the allowable for the project, and the design itself still required serious improvements, the company's engineering team decided to continue their work, turning the project into a light self-propelled unit with a 3.75" howitzer Q.F. 95mm. The chassis engine compartment was completely unified with the Harry Hopkins, while the combat compartment and the gun were completely new for the series. The SPG is called Alecto I (or Alecto Mk. I) went to the testing in 1944 and, after implementing new changes (again with an increase in the mass of the machine), the self-propelled guns were built in a small batch by June 1945. The war had already ended by that time, and all units built were used mainly for training purposes and were decommissioned in 1955.
