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:
- The main gun reloads in 5 seconds even with 2 active crew members and the autoloader has a capacity of 12 rounds.
- The shells have a very high muzzle velocity (1,000 m/s for APC) and, despite the lack of explosive filler, deal a lot of damage*
- Both the front and back wheels steer, resulting in a pretty small turning radius.
- As this vehicle is an armoured car, scouting is available.
Cons:
- Due to its shape, a penetration in the front (or back) by any actual tank cannon will mean losing the vehicle.
- The 7° gun depression is far from optimal for players that want to shoot from an hull down position.
- The massive radio antennas will make you visible even when the rest of the vehicle is hidden behind a hill or small building.
- Very easy to spot and recognize from the side due to its size and shape.
- The roof of the turret, right above the crew and autoloader drums, is 10mm thick, making it vulnerable to airborne attacks.
- May have some difficulty climbing hills without a running start.
- Extremly slow acceleration for a light tank even even worse for compared to armored cars.
- Cant reach top speed of 105 km/h in RB
- Low end power of engine is unrealistic for oposed piston engine.
- will die even from 7 mm mashinegun fired from 300 m
- shels sometimes overpenetrate not creating a shrapnels inside dealing no damage.
- Overster when turning in speeds above 40 km/h
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
