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).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- One of the longest ranges in the game at a maximum range of 12 km
- VT1 missiles come stock and they are very fast
- Has access to gen 1 gunner thermals
- Can fire all 8 missiles without reloading
Cons:
- 8 mm of all-around armour is insufficient to stop even .50 cal machine guns
- Search radar when unfolded sticks out quite far giving it a very tall profile
- Lacks any sort of self-defence against ground targets
- Lacks any sort of mobility offroad or uphill
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
