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 helpful for survival in combat? If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

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

Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in a bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

Pros:

  • Good survivability when driving with the rear part forwards.
  • The AP shell has good penetration for its battle rating.
  • The tank has the same 'speed' in reverse as going forwards.
  • The turret and track traverse speeds are surprisingly good, especially for the size of the vehicle.
  • The side of the vehicle has decent armor values, making armor angling and side scraping a viable tactic to improve the vehicles survivability.

Cons:

  • One of the slowest vehicles in the game.
  • The smoke shell modification also gives the vehicle side sponsons, which create a big weakspot to its side armor, making side scraping an unusable tactic.
  • The cannon only has 1 anti armor shell, an AP round, which means you rarely oneshot vehicles.
  • The turret armor is not very thick, and isnt angled, which makes it a big weakspot.
  • Due to its huge size and low speed, the tank is an easy prey for aircraft.
  • Even tough the tank is huge, the crew is all very close together in the front, which means the tank can be knocked out by one well aimed APHE shell.

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
