The CV9030FIN has 20 mm of frontal hull armour, which is not significant enough to stop anything larger than a 14.5 mm machine gun. However, the upper plate is angled very well and as such could possibly prevent low-penetration auto-cannons from damaging the vehicle; the hull front, with its slope, can offer from 20 mm on the lower glacis up to almost 90 mm of effective thickness on the upper glacis. The side armour is composed of two spaced plates, one 6 mm and one 10 mm plate (for a total of 16 mm). This is enough to stop low-calibre machine guns, but a .50 cal will penetrate the armour with ease. A fuel tank is located between the spaced armour plates of the left side of the hull, right beneath the turret; the fuel tank is able to absorb machine gun bullets, protecting the turret crew from the left side from machine gun fire. The rear of the hull has 20 mm of armour, enough to stop low-calibre machine guns. Shots by large calibre cannons to the turret will more often than not only kill a single crew-member allowing an attacking response or swift retreat.

The CV9030FIN has 20 mm of frontal hull armour, which is not significant enough to stop anything larger than a 14.5 mm machine gun. However, the upper plate is angled very well and as such could possibly prevent low-penetration auto-cannons from damaging the vehicle; the hull front, with its slope, can offer from 20 mm on the lower glacis up to almost 90 mm of effective thickness on the upper glacis. The side armour is composed of two spaced plates, one 6 mm and one 10 mm plate (for a total of 16 mm). This is enough to stop low-calibre machine guns, but a .50 cal will penetrate the armour with ease. A fuel tank is located between the spaced armour plates of the left side of the hull, right beneath the turret; the fuel tank is able to absorb machine gun bullets, protecting the turret crew from the left side from machine gun fire. The rear of the hull has 20 mm of armour, enough to stop low-calibre machine guns. Shots by large calibre cannons to the turret will more often than not only kill a single crew-member allowing an attacking response or swift retreat.

Armour type:

  • Body made entirely of rolled homogeneous armour
  • Structural steel boxes attached to sides and rear of turret
  • Composite screen covering front, sides of turret, and sides of hull

Usage in battles

APFSDS round allows adequate penetration of MBTs from the side and rear angles and is best utilized to position the vehicle to allow such shots. While acceleration is poor, the fair top speed allows creative positioning and the good reverse speed provides for the ability to use shoot and scoot tactics. Only IFVs and other lightly armoured vehicles can reliably be destroyed from the front.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Amazing vertical guidance for both main gun and machine gun
  • Magazine fed gun instead of single shells like on the CV9040 variants
  • Engine block at the front of the vehicle can tank some damage
  • APFSDS has decent penetration which allows the tank to penetrate the sides and backs of most tanks

Cons:

  • Thermals and APFSDS are Rank III modifications which require some time to get
  • .50 cal fire can penetrate the back of the vehicle
  • Mediocre acceleration, takes rather long to get to the top speed
  • Has only one turret-fixed 7.62 mm machine gun, rendering it useless against targets when the turret is knocked out

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).
