This page is about the premium Italian light tank AUBL/74 HVG. For the regular version, see AUBL/74. |
Description
The FIAT AUBL/74 60/70M (AUBL/74 HVG) is a premium gift rank V Italian light tank
with a battle rating of 8.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced during Update 1.89 "Imperial Navy" as a reward for the 2019 Operation H.E.A.T event.
General info
Survivability and armour
Armour Type:
- Rolled homogeneous armour (hull, turret)
- Cast homogeneous armour (gun mantlet)
- Wheel (tires)
Armour | Front (Slope angle) | Sides | Rear | Roof |
---|---|---|---|---|
Hull | 8 mm (74°) Upper Glacis 8 mm (29-36°) Driver viewport glacis 8 mm (44°) Lower Glacis |
8 mm (36-46°) Top 5 mm (39°) Engine vents 8 mm (22-30°) Bottom 8 mm Wheelwells |
8 mm (11°) Upper plate 8 mm (44°) Lower glacis |
8 mm (16°) Front glacis 8 mm (spherical) Driver hatch 8 mm Centre 8 mm (4°) Rear |
Turret | 15 mm (24°) Turret front 8 mm (13°) Turret Cheeks 15 mm (8-50°) Gun Mantlet |
8 mm (34°) 15 mm (cylindrical) Cupola well 8 mm (68-72°) Turret underside |
8 mm (12°) | 8 mm (85°) Front 8 mm Centre & Rear |
Cupola | 15 mm (cylindrical) | 8 mm |
Notes:
- The tires are 10 mm thick and the suspension rods are 1 mm thick.
- The side engine grilles are only 5 mm thick, so make sure to protect those weak points.
- There is an engine grille on the roof which is also only 5 mm thick. A weak point planes might look to take advantage of.
- This vehicle unfortunately hull breaks quite easily.
- A tightly spaced crew of three makes it easily taken out by machine guns and autocannons.
Mobility
Game Mode | Max Speed (km/h) | Weight (tons) | Engine power (horsepower) | Power-to-weight ratio (hp/ton) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Forward | Reverse | Stock | Upgraded | Stock | Upgraded | ||
Arcade | 112 | 22 | 8.7 | 248 | 305 | 28.51 | 35.06 |
Realistic | 100 | 20 | 142 | 160 | 16.32 | 18.39 |
Overall mobility is really great can reach up to 100 km/h, avg speed off-road being 46-56 km/h. Nice control over manoeuvrability even at high speeds. Mobility really suffers on snow or mud and severely hampers your speed. The AUBL/74 HVG also has amphibious capabilities, although speed in the water is limited to around 4 km/h.

Pros and cons
Pros:
- High engine HP/weight ratio and amazing top speed
- Perfect mobility on roads and urban environments
- Decent speed on plain fields, enough to keep up with light tanks
- Easy to control even at high speeds
- A rather small size vehicle, difficult to target and easy to hide
- Smoke grenade launchers located on the turret, a player can choose which side of the tank to cover
- Has an anti-aircraft light machine gun
- Decent armament for a light tank: acceptable rate of fire and penetration plus near-perfect accuracy using APFSDS
- Two-plane stabilizer allows accurate fire on the move
- Gets the premium tank boost to XP and SL
- Can navigate water features
- Outfitted with night vision devices
Cons:
- Stabilizer only works up to 75 km/h
- Horrible mobility in shallow water and snow results in heavy dependence on roads
- The main gun, while accurate, has a low calibre of 60 mm, more than one shot is often required to take out an enemy tank
- Small crew of three
- Next to no armour, vulnerable even to light machine gunfire
- Easily taken out by SPAA and other light tanks
- Driver's viewports greatly limit the gun depression on front-right of the tank
- All six smoke grenades are launched at once
- While swimming, it can only go around 4-5 km/h
- Does not have thermal vision capabilities
