Description
The Cruiser tank A.C. Mark I is a premium gift rank II British medium tank with a battle rating of 3.3 (AB) and 3.0 (RB/SB). It was introduced during Update "Winged Lions" as a reward for the 2021 Operation W.I.N.T.E.R. event.
General info
Survivability and armour
In general, the A.C.I is very good at head-on engagements, due to its very well armored front for its BR . The sides are with a thickness of only around 45 mm relatively good penetrable at 2.7. Tanks using large-calibre HE shells are dangerous, because of the overpressure mechanics that will often take out the driver and the machine gunner as well as the transmission. The lower front is quite vulndrable, if shot, the transmission will most likely break down, the crew won't take damage usually.

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
Pros:
- Diversely sloped frontal hull armor is sturdy against common foes, like M3A3 Stuart and M5 Stuart, T-50
- Outstanding gun depression, allowing hull-down tactics
- Can easily frontally engage most enemies
- Fast reload allows quick follow-up shots
Cons:
- Only 44 mm of side armour
- Painfully slow reverse speed of -4 km/h
- Tightly packed crew
- Frontal turret armour is quite weak
- Slow acceleration
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
