Description

The Stridsvagn 101 is a rank V Swedish medium tank with a battle rating of 8.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.97 "Viking Fury". The Strv 101 is a Centurion Mk.10 purchased from the United Kingdom with Swedish instrumentation and radios.

The Strv 101 has the same armour layout as the Centurion Mk 10. Weakpoints are the same, that includes the lower frontal plate and some areas on the turret. The armour can bounce and stop some shells, but shouldn't be relied upon, particularly against HEATFS and APDS shells. The tank also comes with 6 mm thick sideskirts which can occasionally prematurely detonate incoming HEAT shells. The armour plate above the engine is very thin, and can be penetrated by most aircraft cannons and some machine guns.

Armour type:

  • Rolled homogeneous armour (Hull)
  • Cast homogeneous armour (Turret)
Armour Front (Slope angle) Sides Rear Roof
Hull 51 + 76.2 mm (57°) Upper front plate

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:

  • High-penetrating gun with access to APDS and HESH shots
  • Good gun depression and elevation angles (-10/+20), giving it great terrain adaptation
  • Upper glacis and gun mantlet can resist most full-calibre AP shells (e.g. T-44-100)
  • Good mobility options with neutral steering and sufficient reverse speed
  • Reasonably fast reload speed
  • Smoke grenades can cover up the player when there is danger

Cons:

  • Lower glacis is still a prominent weak spot
  • Mediocre top speed and acceleration
  • No access to HEATFS, unlike other nations' L7 guns
  • Engine armour is weak from the top, can be damaged aircraft guns
  • Small internal compartment (only 4 crew members) with ammunition scattered all over
  • Very slow vertical targeting speed
  • Armour becomes weak in an uptier against early APFSDS and HEATFS (e.g. T-69 IIG, T-55AM)

History

The Strv 101 was the designation given to the 110 British Centurion Mk 10s (105 mm gun) equipped with Swedish communication equipment that were bought in 1958. They were bought after the order for the 240 Centurion Mk 3s that were designated Strv 81. The Swedish Army would then upgrade them to the Strv 101R specification in the 1980s which included Renovation and Modifications. The Strv 106 designation, Strv 101Rs upgraded with new suspensions and fire control system, was proposed but never built.
