- Top speed is 13 km/h (8 mp/h) higher than the Centurion Mk 10
- Has an unlockable APFSDS shell which can deal with pretty much anything at its Battle Rating
Cons:
- Armour is the same as the Centurion Mk 10, but must face stronger ammunition
- APFSDS is an tier 4 modification
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
