GarageImage M36B1.jpg


The Cannone da 90/50 Semovente M36B1 (shortened to M36B1) is a rank IV Italian tank destroyer with a battle rating of 5.7 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.85 "Supersonic".

General info

Survivability and armour

Describe armour protection. Note the most well protected and key weak areas. Appreciate the layout of modules as well as the number and location of crew members. Is the level of armour protection sufficient, is the placement of modules helpful for survival in combat? If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

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:

  • Hard-hitting 90 mm gun, the same one as the M46 Patton
  • HEATFS can take on any target, even frontally
  • Good mobility overall
  • Angling can bounce some lower tier shots

Cons:

  • The armour on the Sherman chassis is pencil-thin for the rank
  • Open turret makes you vulnerable to strafing planes and artillery shells

History

The M36B1 is an variant of the M36 tank destroyer, mounted on the M4A3 chassis instead of M4A2 chassis. Some fell into the hands of the Italian Army after World War Two.

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
