    It's just like rifles, a smaller round will have a higher velocity giving it more penetration at closer ranges though they suffer at longer ranges as they lose speed due to drag while at longer ranges a larger round can perform better because it's greater mass will use shear mass to punch through.
    (This doesn't really pertain to Sabot rounds at high tiers as they use very dense metals to make up for their small size)

      Only an APC design would be able to penetrate 145mm, though. AP shells really struggle to penetrate more than twice their caliber of armor, since the stress at high velocity usually breaks the nose.

    I certainly love this little tank so much that I purchased even the 1943 variant during the anniversary. It's just such a great all-arounder. I do wish to say an information that I hope gets pinned.
    The T-34-57 is very prone to what could be called "barrel overheating" mechanic. Basically, if you continuously fire shots after shots, mainly for long-range, your shots will not be accurate for long. If you attempt to fire long-range shots too many times, you will have to wait between each shot after your 1st or 2nd shots, else you will not hit your target properly. This is crucial information, because this is a very hidden mechanic that never gets talked about, but can heavily hinder vehicle performance and opinion about it.
    The T-34-57's gun is also not on the same or performance as the T-34-85's gun as one might think. There's a less hidden mechanic called overmatching that basically makes higher caliber cannons be better on angles and also create more spalling when they pen (one of the reasons the ARL-44's gun is so strong at its BR). This is one of the reasons the 85's gun is said to ignore angles when in reality, it's just that it has higher caliber shells than most tanks it faces. The T-34-57 is worse with angles, so it's sometimes better to wait for enemies that are unaware of you to show a better flat side of their armor if they're unangled atleast, otherwise you have to pray a bit for a hit.

    You still can play T-34-57 in hull down. It wobbles quite a bit, on the move and on the brakes. Tactically using the latter allows for huge depression boost which somehow doesn't COMPLETELY destroy your accuracy.
    It's difficult, but once this one click in your head, you feel yourself like some sort of slasher boogieman on most T-34 tanks, not just T-34-57.

The 57mm can get better flat penetration as long the 85mm isnt using APCR ( it got buffed to something like 190mm ) but what you arent considering is the INSANE angled pen of the BR 365A shell. It can literally pen angled tigers across the map.

      Yeah, honestly, it quite easily fits into even a 5.3-5.7 line-up. I have the premium T-34-57, so I even use it there, because it's a great alternative to the T-34-85 due to having a better reload and a far smaller profile overall. The armor being worse is irrelevant, since T-34-85s get lolpenned anyways by almost everything aside from the stalinium turrets and the mobility is almost relatively the same, so it doesn't matter. Having a better reload though can decide life and death when facing a Tiger and Panther for example.

    Its way better having a 57mm gun with good fire rate and penetration than a 122mm gun (is2) with a great penetration but a damn 20+ seconds reload. Forget about playing at the front line with injured crew lol, u shoot once and the enemy 5 lmao
