Description

GarageImage Warrior.jpg


The Combat Vehicle, Personnel, Tracked, 30mm Gun, Warrior FV510 (or just the Warrior) is a Rank VI British light tank with a battle rating of 8.3 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.81 "The Valkyries".

General info

Survivability and armour

Describe armour protection. Note the most well protected and key weak areas. Appreciate the layout of modules as well as the number and location of crew members. Is the level of armour protection sufficient, is the placement of modules helpfull for survival in combat?

If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

Usage in the 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 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:

  • Extremely powerful ATGM with 8 missiles.
  • Can stop pushes if manages to get to good cover.
  • Can survive direct hit by a miracle and even brawl with MBT's if armour mod is installed.
  • The only British light tank beyond rank 1.

Cons:

  • Can be destroyed by other light tanks easily, especially if you don't pay attention.
  • Any properly landed turret shot will end you, no way to survive, if it also was HE.
  • Many will be disheartened by main gun's performance, especially in a duel with other light tanks.
  • Add-on armour does less than you may expect from it, it's not clear when you survived by sheer luck or because of armour plates.

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the ground vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/historical reference" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Name-vehicles/historical reference) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to include links to sources at the end of the article.

Media

An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.

Read also

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example,

  • reference to the series of the vehicles;
  • links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.

ETC.

Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:

  • topic on the official game forum;
  • other literature.
