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:

  • Very high velocity APFSDS round means "point and shoot" at typical War Thunder combat ranges - no need to account for projectile drop at range.
  • Outstanding armour penetration by HEAT-FS and APFSDS rounds.
  • Very good spalling effect from the kinetic energy spread and explosive mass from HEAT-FS round - will usually one-hit-kill.
  • Good mobility for the size of gun.
  • Only Soviet tank destroyer with a turret.

Cons:

  • Weak armour - vulnerable to anything bigger than a heavy machine gun, and even those from some angles at short range.
  • Poor depression for main armament.
  • Low ammunition load
  • All projectiles carried in rear of turret behind thin armour makes ammunition explosions very likely from turret hits

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/historical reference" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Name-vehicles/historical reference) and add a link to it here using the main template.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.
