Armor is not legendary, it will rarely block a serious shot. However, it is very thorough, with no real weak spots. Can take a frontal beating from larger autocannons without losing anything important. Reinforced UFP and Russian turret will still block well if opponents do not attempt to aim. Has four crew members that can be difficult to get all in one shot. Utilizes Drozd Active Protection System to protect 40 degrees to each side of the gun, with 20 degrees up and 6 down. Optics mounted on gun are usually damaged by incoming missiles, regardless of APS function.

Armor is not legendary, it will rarely block a serious shot. However, it is very thorough, with no real weak spots. Can take a frontal beating from larger autocannons without losing anything important. Reinforced UFP and Russian turret will still block well if opponents do not attempt to aim. Has four crew members that can be difficult to get all in one shot. Utilizes Drozd Active Protection System to protect 40 degrees to each side of the gun, with 20 degrees up and 6 down. Optics mounted on gun are usually damaged by incoming missiles, regardless of APS function.

Give the reader information about the characteristics of the main gun. Assess its effectiveness in a battle based on the reloading speed, ballistics and the power of shells. Do not forget about the flexibility of the fire, that is how quickly the cannon can be aimed at the target, open fire on it and aim at another enemy. Add a link to the main article on the gun: {{main|Name of the weapon}}. Describe in general terms the ammunition available for the main gun. Give advice on how to use them and how to fill the ammunition storage.

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:

Cons:

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.
