General info
Survivability and armour
The Ikv 91-105 is a light vehicle. In order to remain agile, and amphibious, the Ikv 91-105 is forced to sacrifice most of its protection. The hull and turret sport a different shape compared to the earlier Ikv 91, but overall maintain the same level of protection. The upper and lower plates can occasionally protect against .50 cal MG fire, but the turret is often left exposed. The Ikv 91-105 should always avoid incoming fire from large-calibre machine guns and cannons, as they are more than likely guaranteed to damage the tank internally.
Armour type:
- Rolled homogeneous armour (hull, turret)
- High-hardness rolled homogeneous armour (hull sides, lower front plate)
| Armour | Front (Slope angle) | Sides | Rear | Roof |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hull | 12 mm (30-45°) Top 20 mm (37°) Bottom |

8 mm (15°) Top 8 mm (20°) Bottom |
8-12 mm |
| Turret | 12 mm (0-50°) Turret front 12 mm (0-50°) Gun mantlet |
12 mm (10-40°) | 12 mm (0-30°) | 12 mm (0-15°) |
| Cupola | 12 mm | 12 mm | 12 mm | 12 mm |

Notes:
- Shells are modeled individually and disappear after having been shot or loaded.
- Rack 3 is a first stage ammo rack. It totals 11 shells and gets filled first when loading up the tank.
- This rack is also emptied early: the rack depletion order at full capacity is: 3 - 1 - 2.
- Simply not firing when the gun is loaded will move ammo from racks 1-2 into rack 3. Firing will interrupt the restocking of the ready racks.
Machine guns
Offensive and anti-aircraft machine guns not only allow you to fight some aircraft but also are effective against lightly armoured vehicles. Evaluate machine guns and give recommendations on its use.

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).

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
