The SU-100P is a rank IV Soviet tank destroyer with a battle rating of 6.3 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.71 "New E.R.A.".

General info

Survivability and armour

The armour on the SU-100P is best described as non-existent (25/10/8 for the Hull) and although it may sometimes not trigger APHE fuses you should not rely on it in any way especially since most of your crew is exposed to MG fire.

Mobility

The SU-100P has good mobility with a top speed of 70 km/h on a flat road capale of getting you into good firing positons early-on in the battle.

It, like many other soviet vehicles does not benefit from neutral traverse wich is a big downside considering it doesn't feature a fully traversable turret.

Armaments

Main armament

Main Article: D-50 (100mm)

The Main Gun is D-50 Rifled 100mm almost identical to the D-10T of the T-44-100 and T-54/55 only with a Higher velocity, very powerful at 6.7 but lacks a fully travesable turret.

The open configuration of the turret gives the 100mm an impressive 7.5 seconds reaload time with an uprgeaded crew.

Ammunition

The main ammunition of the SU-100P is the BR-412 with the BR-412D variant being the most deadly with the best penetration values especially on longer ranges and with only a smaller TNT filler (103.7g equivalent) compared to the BR-412B (110.5g).

Pros and cons

Pros:

• Hard hitting and accurate gun for its BR.
• Decently mobile hull (same as on the Object 120 without the extra weight of the turret).

Cons:

• Weak armour overall prone to hullbreaks.
• Crew is exposed to MG fire.
