The T-10A is the big brother of the IS-3, featuring the stabilized D-25TS and almost double the reload speed; it fixes most of the issues of the IS-3. However, unlike the T-10M, it still has the older D-25 gun with a worse stabilizer: the gun still has enough penetration to go through enemies, but still not enough to not have to target weak spots of certain enemies.
The Bandkanon was a Self-Propelled Artillery Gun developed by Bofors from 1960 to 1965. It was part of a longer Swedish Army project to develop a modern autoloaded SPAG for its forces. The Bkan was based on the S-tank chassis and initially used the powerpack of the A version, which was severely underpowered to drive this 50-ton tank. Because of this, all Bkans were later upgraded to the powerpack of the Strv 103C, giving it the 1C designation.
Based on the M26 Pershing heavy tank, the T26E5 was designed as an assault tank to break through enemy defences. Its design is reminiscent of the idea behind the another success and popular tank, M4A3E2 "Jumbo" assault tank, which also had the goal of reinforcing armour to overcome enemy defences, which was very important at the time of 1945, when the T26E5 was produced. The T26E5 received significantly reinforced front armour and equipped with the 90 mm Tank Gun M3 L/53, same as in M26.
The Kfir Canard is an Israeli modification of the French Dassault Mirage 5, with a new General Electric J79 engine (the same found on the F-4E Phantom II), canards bolted onto the fuselage, and other changes including new avionics. In War Thunder, the Kfir Canard is one of the best-performing planes in terms of its flight characteristics, relying on its excellent flight performance to defeat opponents.
The A-5C (Q-5III/强-5III), NATO reporting name: Fantan, is the export version of the Nanchang Q-5 during the early days of China’s paid military sales in the 1980s. China was in desperate need of funding after economic reforms, and since previous aircraft exports were essentially given as aid rather than sales, military factories were also searching for a means to generate funds for their new projects.
The A-4N is the most advanced variant of the A-4 Skyhawk available in War Thunder. It boasts an upgraded engine and an advanced weapons system for its Battle Rating. While its flight performance is modest, it can still hold its own in dogfights. Though its air-to-ground capabilities aren’t exceptional, the A-4N is effective at dealing with enemy anti-air vehicles. This versatility makes it a true jack-of-all-trades, master of none.
Tank destroyers are obvious in what they do: they sport firepower and ammunition to take down tanks (obviously), whether light or heavy, with ease. However, certain tank destroyers, like the M10 or the StuG have armor to keep them alive in combat, and not all tank destroyers have access to such armor. That doesn’t stop tank destroyers like the small but mighty Pvkv II from picking their targets out like fish in a barrel.
The Leopard A1A1 (L/44) is a premium medium tank found in the German tech tree. Equipped with the renowned 120mm Rh120 L/44 cannon, capable of nearly 400mm of penetration with its DM13 APFSDS round, this tank has the potential to dominate the battlefield in skilled hands. While lacking armor, it excels in a sniper-focused playstyle due to its great mobility and firepower.
