General information

The FV4202 is a British medium tank. It was introduced in Update 1.63 "Desert Hunters". As the prototype of the Chieftain, it features the heavy sloping armour of the Chieftain on the chassis of a Centurion tank.

The FV4202 gives the player an excellent insight into what to expect from the rank IV and V medium tanks of the British ground forces. It features heavily sloped frontal armour and a powerful high penetrating cannon. The FV4202 is relatively mobile for its armour and weight, which can be used to put pressure on the enemy. When on the move, mind the turret armour and the lower frontal glacis, as these are the FV4202's greatest weak spots.
