As a balanced force on the battlefield, medium tanks offer a unique combination of firepower, mobility, and protection, allowing them to fulfill various roles in combat. Medium tanks are popular among players seeking a well-rounded and adaptable experience in ground battles.

Characteristics of medium tanks

Medium tanks in War Thunder typically possess the following attributes:

  • Firepower
    • Medium tanks are equipped with a diverse range of guns, including high-velocity cannons and rapid-firing autoloaders. They usually have a good rate of fire and are capable of engaging both armored and soft targets effectively.
  • Mobility
    • With a balance between speed, acceleration, and maneuverability, medium tanks can quickly respond to changing battlefield conditions. They are capable of flanking, capturing objectives, and repositioning as needed.
  • Protection
    • Medium tanks offer a reasonable degree of armor protection, allowing them to withstand some enemy fire while engaging in combat. However, they are generally less well-armored than heavy tanks and may be vulnerable to more powerful guns or well-placed shots.

Roles and Tactics

Medium tanks can fulfill a variety of roles on the battlefield, depending on the specific vehicle and the player's preferred tactics. Some of these roles include:

  • Flanking
    • Medium tanks can use their speed and mobility to outmaneuver slower and more heavily armed opponents, striking from unexpected angles and exploiting their weak points.
  • Objective Capture
