The ZiS-5 has somewhat inadequate penetration for its rank, and thus will often struggle when facing well-armoured enemies frontally. Therefore, despite being fitted exclusively to heavy tanks, the ZiS-5 works best when flanking, as its high explosive mass often guarantees a one-hit knock-out when shooting center mass from the side.

Description

The 76 mm ZiS-5 is a modification of the Soviet F-34 tank gun, used on various KV-1 tanks.

Vehicles equipped with this weapon

General info

Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.

Available ammunition

The available ammunition allows for engaging all types of targets:

  • BR-350A (MD-5 fuze): APHEBC; a shell with high explosive mass that will one-shot any tank it penetrates but has an average penetration power.
  • BR-354P: APCR; a composite round with the best penetration but no explosive filler and will only penetrate flat vertical surfaces.
  • BR-350SP: APBC; a solid shot with an even better penetration but no explosive filler.
  • BR-350B (MD-8 fuze): APHEBC; same shell as the BR-350A but with increased penetration at the cost of slightly less explosive filler.
  • OF-350M: HE; useful for destroying open and lightly armoured vehicles.
  • Sh-354T: Shrapnel; useful against vehicles that are resistant to the HE shells but too thinly armoured to trigger the fuzes of AP shells.
  • D-350A: Smoke; useful to blind enemy vehicles that are too remote for you to disable so that you can progress towards objectives.

Comparison with analogues

Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns that have firepower equal to this weapon.

Usage in battles

The ZiS-5 has somewhat inadequate penetration for its rank, and thus will often struggle when facing well-armoured enemies frontally. Therefore, despite being fitted exclusively to heavy tanks, the ZiS-5 works best when flanking, as its high explosive mass often guarantees a one-hit knock-out when shooting center mass from the side.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • APHEBC shells have good post-penetration damage

Cons:

  • Long reload time

History

Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon 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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-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 />.

Media

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

  • reference to the article about the variant of the cannon/machine gun;
  • references to approximate analogues by other nations and research trees.
