    The basis for the KV-1E is that of the original KV-1 model, but up-armoured with bolted appliqué armour on the front and side of the hull and turret.
    This tank possesses great armour and a mostly adequate gun. However, it will sometimes not be able to destroy an enemy from the front and will require very close distance or a flank shot.
    The defining characteristic of this tank is its armour and it can be a tough tank to destroy, most of the weak spots from its predecessors have been armoured and the only frontal weak spot is the centre of the upper hull.
    Do not be afraid to advance towards the enemy, especially against tanks such as the 75 mm M4s and T-34s since they will find it very difficult to penetrate your armour.

    • @adamg7984
      @adamg7984 Před rokem +1

      I like how it resides at 4.0 with like triple the speed and better side armor than the Churchill VII which sits at 4.7. Sure, the Churchill's shitty American 75mm gun with no HE filler has technically better penetration but it's a pretty obvious choice. I'd take a Kv-1E to 5.7 far sooner than a Churchill VII. War Thunder's balance sucks balls.

      @adamg7984 Před rokem

      @@Hallands. I do believe you're correct in that assumption or you already knew that. I'm pretty sure they do come up with ratings on that basis, use frequency. But that's a silly, stupid way to balance a vehicle considering it's easily manipulated. But that's also not the only way they choose ratings that's flawed so, it's certainly not the only issue. I just see so many double standards in how they balance the game. If you go by the KV-1 Zis-5 then the KV-1E should be at 4.0 but the KV-1 Zis-5 is significantly better than quite a few other vehicles at 4.3 and above 4.3 so it also depends on what perspective you come from. There's certain vehicles Gaijin never should have added like the Churchill VII since it's gun is anemic. It was designed to fight infantry and that's not worth much in War Thunder. All I know is if the KV-1E was up tiered, it's gun at least has 1 shot potential and can flank shot even with only, what, 80mm of point blank penetration? The Churchill VII has better frontal armor but it's so abysmally slow it's a pipe dream to make flanks in it. And even if you manage a flank shot, it's gun is just one of those AP without HE guns so it horribly under performs in the game because according to Gaijin, APHE acts like a hand grenade when thrown into a tank, it doesn't in real life of course.

      @@Hallands. Oh well believe me I'm not the only one who's said this or feels this way. And it's worth adding many of the balance issues stem from the need for more BR ranks. The game only goes to 11.3 when it really needs to go to like 14 or 15 to allow much more nuance to balance. That alone could fix many of the issues but we're lucky to see Gaijin raise the BR ceiling by .3 every year.

      The reason it seems OP to you but isn't up-BR-ed, is because 4.3 is insanely often full downtiered, but Gaijin almost certainly balances things only at their native BR. So your experiences with it are biased in a way the algorithm isn't. In other words, normal tanks are also as good as it when they are full downtiered, they just aren't as often.

      The thing that pushes tanks like these in to OP territory is when they have a few specific weak spots to aim for, but the game lets people cover those weak spots in bushes. Unlike many other vehicles where the entire vehicle is the weak spot lol.
