      What is the difference between them? On paper they are the same, but in the game? Or the tank look, I mean the skin is different? I got Obj. 252U in my garage. Sorry iam pretty new to the game.

    Thanks for everything you do, as always Skill. I've wanted the Defender for quite some time, only ever seem to get offered the 252U (which is what is on "sale" for me currently) I know they're the same tank, but the name and style of the Defender is far superior. Wallet remains closed until WG decides to sell the right thing to me!

      @christonkinson8473 I fitted mine with Vents/hardening/rammer. I have aiming circle mod that I set to 15px so I don't really need Aiming on any of my tanks. You know this stuffs really works becuz when I first played the tank without any Mod and equipment, the aiming was sooo bad I feel like crying that I wasted my bonds(I have just 4k remaining now) but after setting it up fully it is now just as accurate as any med I have played. It will do with more penetration though, sometimes 196mm pen sucks.

    @txp-tuff4358 Před měsícem

    Used to be a solid brawler. Power creep has rendered the turret armor into paper for a few T8 and a lot of T9 & T10. Since you meet T10 a lot, this isn't nearly as fun as it used to be. Back when it first came out, you could exploit their height. If you had a tall tank (nodding at Mutant), face hug them and shoot the heck out of the top of the turret.

  • @vvav

    The greatest thing about the Defender and actually where i personally still have trouble with is that the lower plate can bounce quite a lot just like the Mutant and Chrysler. It even does against gold when angled properly. I never thought it was op however since it still has hittable cupolas on top, easy to permatrack if overangled and it catches fire quite quickly.

    the upper plate of this tank cannot be pen by anyone, anyone, not even JPanzerE100 with 299 pen AP or 420 pen HEAT. and this is a tier 8. there are way too many OP tanks out there nowadays, and if it requires a little bit of skills and patient to play it people will call it trash. and a side note, 50% of the turret front is also auto bounce for JpanzerE100. but you are pening the Jpanzer in the lower plate with your standard AP, because it is made of paper. like how much more do you want from a tier 8 premium tank? i bought the fcm50t (150mm front armor and 240 alpha with no camo) and wz111(buffed to 19x penetration from 175mm) back then with real money, and we have people complaining the 252 is trash. WG is toxic but the community is the enablers to allow WG ridiculous behavior. nowonder why people are rolling with tier 8 mediums that have 230mm of penetration and 360 alpha plus an auto loader with ultra strong turret and they be complaining (the gun handling is bad)
