#30mm

The Scimitar is a Cold War Light Tank in the British tech tree. It is part of the CVR (T) series of vehicles. The Scimitar is a variant of the CVR (T) platform fitted with the 30 mm L21A1 autocannon, also known as the RARDEN, and was utilized in the role of an armed reconnaissance vehicle, and as a light tank. With a top speed of 50 mph, a reverse gearbox, an APDS-firing autocannon that can penetrate up to 110mm of armour, along with its small size, it is a master of flanking and fast, precision strikes. However, a slow fire rate and a exceptionally high fixed zoom for the gunner’s sight, combine to make it difficult to use against fast moving targets at close range.

The BMPT is one of the most infamous vehicles ever introduced to War Thunder. Designed to replace Russian AFVs working in urban combat or to support friendly troops and eliminate enemy infantry, it has the equivalent armour of an MBT, based on the T-90 chassis for the tech-tree variant and the T-72 for the premium version, with firepower to match. In this article, I aim to explain how this vehicle is played and its strengths and weaknesses.
