Description
The Combat Vehicle 9030 Finland is a rank VI Swedish light tank with a battle rating of 9.3 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update "La Royale".
General info
Survivability and armour
The CV9030FIN has 20 mm of frontal hull armor, which is not significant enough to stop anything larger than a 14.5 mm machine gun. But, the upper plate is angled very well and as such could possibly prevent low-penetration auto-cannons from damaging the vehicle; the hull front, with its slope, can offer from 20 mm on the lower glacis up to almost 90 mm of effective thickness on the upper glacis. The side armor is composed of two spaced plates, one 6 mm and one 10 mm plate (for a total of 16 mm). This is enough to stop low-caliber machine guns, but a .50 cal will penetrate the armor with ease. A fuel tank is located between the spaced armor plates of the left side of the hull, right beneath the turret; the fuel tank is able to absorb machine gun bullets, protecting the turret crew from the left side from machine gun fire. The rear of the hull has 20 mm of armor, enough to stop low-caliber machine guns. Shots by large caliber cannons to the turret will more often than not only kill a single crew-member allowing an attacking response or swift retreat.
Armour type:
- Body made entirely of rolled homogeneous armor
- Structural steel boxes attached to sides and rear of turret
- Composite screen covering front, sides of turret, and sides of hull.
| Armour | Front (Slope angle) | Sides | Rear | Roof |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hull | 20 mm Hull plate over tracks
20 mm (78°) Upper glacis 20 mm (30°) Lower glacis - Upper section 20 mm (41°) Lower glacis - Middle section 20 mm (52°) Lower glacis - Lower section |
20 mm (16°) Crew compartment
10 mm Hull plate over left tracks 5 mm Hull plate over right tracks |
10 - 21 mm | 6 mm - 20 mm |
| Turret | 31 - 85 mm Turret front | 60 - 65 mm | 25 mm | 20 mm |
| Cupola | 61 mm | 23 mm | 20 mm | 20 mm |
Notes:
- Suspension wheels, tracks and bogies are 15 mm thick.
- Belly armor and the bottom plate above the tracks are 10 mm thick.
- Mudguards are 5 mm thick
- Inner armor plates protect the sides of the crew compartment (the upper section over the tracks only).
- The engine is separated from the driver position and the crew compartment by an armor plate.
- The driver viewport is a weak spot as it is the only place where the inner armor does not overlap with the external armor

Usage in battles
APFSDS round allows adequate penetration of MBTs from the side and rear angles and is best utilized to position the vehicle to allow such shots. While acceleration is poor the fair top speed allows creative positioning and the good reverse speed provides for the ability to use shoot and scoot tactics. Only IFVs and other lightly armored vehicles can reliably be destroyed from the front.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Amazing vertical guidance for both main gun and machine gun
- Magazine fed gun instead of single shells like on the CV9040 variants
- Engine block at the front of the vehicle can tank some damage
- APFSDS has decent penetration which allows the tank to penetrate the sides and backs of most tanks
Cons:
- Thermals and APFSDS are Rank III modifications which require some time to get
- .50 cal fire can penetrate the back of the vehicle
- Mediocre acceleration, takes rather long to get to the top speed
- Has only one turret-fixed 7.62 mm machine gun, rendering it useless against targets when the turret is knocked out
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).
