    Low tier tanks in War Thunder are often limited to APHE rounds that aren't very good at getting through armor. The Swedish Strv m/41 S-I premium light tank gets around this by slinging APDS or sabot rounds, which will go through just about anything.

      To be fair it's way more common in beginner tiers than in higher ones, on some tanks you can take full ammo load and use it as makeshift add-on armor (tho it can still be detonated, just way lower chances of that happening)

    Yesterday, a leak list came out that had what was called the Panzer6B on it, and I know what it is. It's the Tiger II P that Sweden got post-WWII for evaluation on how to make their Army better.
    If that list is true, Sweden will have it's first heavy tank in the game.

I'm starting to think gaijin really doens't want to give Sweden a heavy tank

    @OptiPopulus Před 2 měsíci +6

    11:33 The reason that detonated the ammorack was either previous damage (which can happen to M4s when the shell pens but then has basically no energy left so the ammo eats it and the shrapnel, causing it to turn yellow/orange/red) or from RNG which is more likely. That ammo was on the other side of the tank so not much of the shrapnel got to it. Usually it requires the shell and the shrapnel from the armor to hit the ammo to kill it like with the Bofors Crusader at 15:13

    is it weird i find low-mid tier France to be my comfort tree? their heavy tanks are such a meme, their truck with the 40mm is fun, and ARL is basically a French KV1
    I have a theory that solid shots work better if you shoot at the most armored part, because they produce the most spall which wrecks and kills anything.... i remember firing a 17 pdr at the most armored part of the KV1, and it died in 2 hits

      Though also Sweden doesn't get as much as they don't have the playerbase like the Big 3 have. Which some of their vehicles are ludicrously powerful while others are just sad. It's a 50/50 gamble

    The reason you couldn't pen the toldi on the ufp is because it has applique armor and gaijin models APDS to shatter in the first plate and non pen the second
    It also happens on the ufp of the porsche tiger/ferdinand/elefant

    I’ve been playing this tank along with having the L62 in my lineup and it’s quite an enjoyable experience also while I know you hate planes I have the buffalo and J20 in my lineup and I mainly use them to take down enemy planes

    @Spookston You should definitely try out Magach Hydra. Just imagine having 38 hydra rockets on top of your M111 dispenser at 8.7 BR. You literally penetrate everything you face with them and can catch off guard people, who thought you already shot. Yeah and dont forget to bring in A-4E with walleyes and gbu to completely destroy the match.
