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
Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in a bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".
Pros:
- Rapid firing 57 mm autocannon can deal huge damage in a short amount of time
- Two-plane stabiliser grants it the ability to fire first, as most counterparts only have vertical stabilisers (eg. Type 59, Leopard 1)
- 5-14x gunsight zoom is great for both short range and long range engagements
- fast -17 km/h reverse allows it to pull out dangerous situations in time
- ~150 mm penetration plus 20 g TNT filler is deadly for sideshots
- Has both smoke grenade launchers (2 salvos) and ESS
- Is amphibious
Cons:
- Inherits the PT-76 hull, meaning extremely poor armour
- ~150 mm penetration will struggle against late/cold war heavy tanks like M103, Conqueror, Maus, etc.
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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.
