Story

Armored forces in Germany appeared only during the era of the Third Reich. The Treaty of Versailles, concluded following the First World War, prohibited the Germans from having their own combat-ready fleet. Therefore, during the Weimar Republic, Germany did not have its own cars. And only the Nazis, who came to power in 1933, spun the military flywheel. At first, light tanks were produced under the guise of tractors. However, the German authorities, having acquired a taste for it, quickly stopped hiding. As for the parallels between tanks and tractors, similar practices existed in the Soviet Union, where in the 1930s. Many tractor factories were built, which in the event of war could easily be converted into tank factories.

In 1926, Germany and the USSR entered into an agreement under which future German military specialists began to study at a specialized school near Kazan. Later, this core began to create technology in their homeland. The first German tank was the Panzer I. This model turned out to be the basis of the German fleet.

By the beginning of World War II, there were more than three thousand tanks in Germany, and before the attack on the USSR, more than four thousand vehicles were concentrated on the Eastern Front alone. The Germans were the first to use heavy equipment as assault equipment. Many SS tank divisions received personal names (“Das Reich”, “Totenkopf”, etc.). A significant part of them was destroyed. In total, the Third Reich lost about 35 thousand vehicles during the war. The key German medium tank was the Panther, and the heavy tank was the Tiger.

information was presented on adding a new branch of Maus (MAUS) to the German nation. The following techniques will be added, shown in the table below:

New branch of mouse (MAUS)

Changes are being made for a more logical branch of Maus research; the slow but very armored VK 100.01 and Maushen will be an excellent replacement for the VK 45.02 auf A and VK 45.02 auf B (alpha sneakers and just slippers in common parlance). Well, if you change sneakers, and in order not to take them out of the game, a level 10 vehicle is added to the branch, namely an analogue of the VK 72.01 (K), the VK 72.02 K itself will not go anywhere and will remain the same premium vehicle, only unique camouflage and body kit for a tank. Also, additional changes to the AP of German World of Tanks tanks. The main changes will include adding mobility and comfort to the weapon.

If the hangar already has MAUS, then a new TT of the tenth level must be re-opened.
If the hangar already has MAUS, then level 8 and level 9 will already be researched and available for purchase in the game.

Changes in performance characteristics of VK 72.01

VK 72.01 in World of Tanks is a German super-heavy class tank, the successor to VK 70.01 with improved armor, was developed by the Kruppe concern and also received improved weapons, it is also compared with the Soviet IS-7 and IS-4, the armor ball is 160 mm, but the turret itself , unlike the IS-7, has bends at irrational angles. It also differs from its younger brother in its higher speed of aiming the turret and reloading 18.5 s, when fully equipped. Despite its large dimensions of 120 tons, the tank is relatively maneuverable and reaches 40 km/h; its ammunition load is less than that of the 70th version (24 rounds). The disadvantages of the tank are its high profile, which makes it an easy target for artillery, for example, on the Sand River maps. The tank received the title of “elite” due to the ability to transfer a crew from any German TT tank to it.

This tank will receive increased firepower (for example, increased damage per minute) comparable to the E100. Another important update for VK 72.01 K owners is the improvement in armor from 235 to 246 mm. Some indicators are not yet the latest before the update is released, for example, such as increased armor on the frontal projection.

Changes in performance characteristics of E100

E-class tanks began to be developed in the early 40s by the Reich Ministry of Armaments. The engineer Mr. Kniepkamp gave the task to several companies that had not previously dealt with tanks to develop a new concept of a super-heavy tank, they received the name Panzerkampfwagen E-100. The main focus was to create a tank that would be invisible in heavy battles, but at the same time it could carry large amounts of ammunition. Because of this, compared to its predecessors, the model range of tanks underwent changes in design; it was decided to abandon the torsion bar suspension. The drive wheels were located at the rear of the car to increase space inside the cabin. The engineers also wanted to create a new type of sights, but during the research they had to abandon the development.

The model available in the game is Pz.Kpfw.E-100, Great 383) 383 is a premium level 10 tank model, weighing 140 tons.

Changes in performance characteristics of MAUS

The history of the Mouses dates back to 1942. Hitler demanded the creation of a car with very powerful armor. Several concerns were involved in the development of individual parts of the tank, including the well-known company Siemens, which developed the transmission. The main developer, Ferdinard Porsche, showed a couple of prototypes in 1944, but on Hitler's orders, mass production of the tanks was stopped because Germany did not have enough resources to develop other types of weapons.

In the game, the tank is available after reaching level ten. Has the best armor in its class. Its weapon has very high one-time damage, good accuracy and resistance to penetration. The only negative is, perhaps, a long reload time and low mobility, which makes it an easy target for self-propelled guns and artillery.

Changes in the performance characteristics of Panther II

In 1942, German engineers decided to develop an improved model of the popular Panther tank, primarily changes related to armor capacity. Development was carried out in parallel with the second version of the Tiger and it was decided that the Panther would be the same Tiger only larger in size. The second version received an improved chassis, surveillance devices, and propulsion system. The armor thickness also increased from 60 to 100 mm. The Shmalturm tower had internal telescopic rangefinders and infrared devices. The increase in equipment entailed an increase in the dimensions of the machine to 47 tons. Production began in 1945 with some changes to the air defense turret.
In the game, the tank received level 8 and can be used as additional support for allies on the second line. It has a good rate of fire and good maneuvers, but has weak armor and a tall silhouette, so it can also be a target for self-propelled guns.

And today we will look at the German branch presented in the game.

Most of the medium tanks in this branch are mobile snipers.

They are equipped with rapid-firing, accurate weapons, which allows them to hit enemies at a fairly long distance.

True, in close combat with them it is problematic, their turrets are too slow, their layout is irrational and their hull is weak.

But such combat vehicles are very effective against military vehicles of other nations, due to their impressive mass. They are great for piercing or ramming.

Today's guide is dedicated to one of the best German tanks in World of Tanks. This is a premium heavy tank – Löwe.

The history of the “baby”

Gigantomania literally seized the Third Reich in the forties of the last century. Adolf Hitler issued a decree on the development of heavy breakthrough tanks.

Many well-known concerns took up development, which led to fierce competition and the emergence of quite interesting, sometimes bizarre projects.

The Löwe tank, a real tiger mouse, appeared in 1941; it was commissioned to be designed by the Krupp company when German designers came across destroyed heavy tanks of the USSR.

There were an incredibly large number of Tiger options, however, the designers were unable to achieve the desired model.

After numerous attempts, the project was “buried”, and “Mouse” appeared instead of “Lion”!

Features of the German tank

But in the World of Tanks game they decided to use a project that was never brought to life. The Löwe tank received a “new” life here, becoming a special fighting vehicle.

Moreover, it belongs to premium tanks and is quite expensive. 12500 gold coins! Let's figure out whether it's worth shelling out so much game currency for it.

1. The Löwe's armor has a weak point, like all other tanks of the German branch. But there are also some nuances. For example, the excellent mass of the gun, covering the entire front of the turret. Sufficiently wide tracks also absorb damage without consequences. The tank has an excellent “health” - 1650 HP, which allows you to catch “slaps” without visible consequences.
2. But the body is less durable. Between the NLD and VLD there is a strip of armor at right angles, which all experienced opponents try to hit. It is enough to hide the heavy part of Leo behind the folds of the terrain or become a diamond, and the chances of a rebound increase.
3. But the “baby’s” gun is beyond praise. This tank is worth purchasing even just for one. With standard shells, the Tiger cannon sews 234 mm of armor. And this is with damage of 320 HP. But that’s not all – it is amazingly accurate. You can easily hit command towers from a distance of five hundred meters! There are also disadvantages, but they are minor - it takes twelve seconds to reload.

What are the tank's disadvantages?

This is its low speed and large size. Opponents, seeing such a German tank, begin to giggle, rubbing their farts.

Imagine, he rushes at his own speed, having a wide, high body glowing in all ranges. And its roof has practically no protection, but it’s better not to allow this situation to happen.

How to properly upgrade a German tank

The premium tank of the German Löwe branch comes already in the top configuration. Therefore, let's go straight to the crew.

We pump up the “light bulb” for the commander without fail, then increase the already magnificent visibility of four hundred meters with the help of the “eagle eye”.

We develop crew members depending on how we will use military equipment at a particular moment. For brutal cuts at close ranges, we choose “repair”; for working as snipers, we choose “combat brotherhood”.

There is one very interesting point here: any crews from German heavy tanks can be transferred to the Tiger.

This makes it possible to level up one and a half times faster and with absolutely no penalties. But there is also a nuance - the impossibility of a return transfer.

Regarding special equipment. Remember these names - improved ventilation, rammer, vertical stabilizer.

This setup is ideal if you prefer to farm and shoot often.

The real king of beasts!

Many users, playing tanks, do not understand the real essence of premium vehicles.

For some reason, many people think that having paid their hard-earned money, they are obliged to be given killer devices that will destroy everything and everything around them. This is not entirely true.

Premium ones will be needed primarily to upgrade crews and earn credits.

Personally, I bought this tank to develop the German branch in World of Tanks and have never regretted the purchase. The king of beasts justified himself 100%!

To make playing with him as comfortable as possible, you just need to fight from the third and second lines, keeping such a distance. Moreover, regardless of whether you are in the top or not.

There is no need for heroism here. If circumstances arise that you need to take part in close combat, find a natural barrier for the tank.

If you are attacked in an open area, play from the side, swaying from front to back.

Don't ignore tactical cards. Experienced gamers know where to go from the very start and what advantageous positions to take in specific situations.

In conclusion, I would like to note that this German tank in World of Tanks handles well; the player’s experience and the battles fought on this wonderful unit help here.

You will understand why Leo was nicknamed the “golden tank” when you start taking out one hundred thousand loans.

This is what he is - a wonderful German Leo! If you want to know about other tanks in the game, read previous reviews or subscribe to blog updates.

I wish you successful battles! Bye everyone!

Sep 14, 2016 Game guides

Tanks are the center of World of Tanks Blitz. Understanding the differences between tanks and knowing which tanks from which country are best for you is half the battle in the game. In this guide, I will try to describe the German branch of tank development in as much detail as possible, but at the same time I will not go to extremes and will not write out huge tables with numerical data for each tank. The purpose of this guide is to give you an idea of ​​the direction in which you would like to take your German tanks.

German tanks: a general view

If you have already read the general guide to tanks of different nations, then this paragraph will not tell you anything new - but otherwise, or for repetition, you should familiarize yourself with it before we move directly to the tanks.

German tanks in general are sniper tanks. They generally have good frontal armor and accurate, rapid-fire guns with high penetration. Most German tanks focus on thick armor and sacrifice mobility. The task of most tanks of this nation is to conduct combat at medium and long distances. The main skill for a pilot of such a tank is to be able to position his tank correctly, i.e. do this in such a way that enemy shots ricochet more often and cannot penetrate the armor - place the tank at an angle and hide it behind various obstacles. The exception is high-rank light tanks - they lose armor for speed.

Now let's move on to a more detailed review of German tanks.

Light tanks of Germany

Relatively thick armor and high maneuverability (but low speed) allow German light tanks to quickly position themselves on the battlefield and shoot enemies at medium range. The first tank of this nation, the light tank Leichttraktor, copes with these tasks perfectly - an accurate weapon with a high level of penetration allows it to shoot enemies even from a high distance without much difficulty, and a good supply of health allows it to fight at short distances. Its main problem is its size - it is very easy to hit. At the same time, the low speed of this tank will not allow it to break away from faster rivals (for example, MS-1). After it, German light tanks are divided into two variations - Pz.Kpfw. 35 and Pz.Kpfw. II. The differences between the 35th and II are that the 35th has almost cardboard armor, but is very mobile and fires high caliber (40mm) shells with a high level of penetration, while the II is a more versatile tank, with good armor and a high rate of fire coupled with high accuracy and pointing speed. At the same time, it is much less mobile and copes very poorly with uphill driving. Subsequently, the 35th turns into the 38th, differing from the 35th only in its greatly reduced weight (+ speed, - armor), but its next version, Pz.Kpfw. 38 n.A., with the same properties, it also has a small size, making the tank a difficult target. Subsequently, this branch becomes the Pz.Kpfw. IV, a medium tank, which I will talk about in the corresponding section. Model Pz.Kpfw. II, meanwhile, goes into Pz.Kpwf. III Ausf. G, a lightweight version, lacking strong armor and high precision guns, but possessing a powerful caliber and high rate of fire, coupled with high speed and maneuverability. This is an excellent light German tank for close contacts with the enemy and reconnaissance. Later, two types of medium tanks and one heavy tank “grow” from it (at the fourth rank!). Also II can turn into variant II Ausf. G is a fast and light reconnaissance tank with high visibility and fast-firing guns. The next one after it, II Luchs, has the highest speed, but low maneuverability, and also has stronger armor. A really significant difference in this development is brought by the light tank VK 16.02 Leopard - it is just as fast, but has much denser armor and higher caliber guns (39mm). The next one after it, VK 28.01, only strengthens the established trend - the highest speed of 72 km/h and the most powerful high-caliber projectiles make it a powerful contender. The only downside to the situation is the high reload time. Germany's final light tanks, Spahpanze SP I C and Spahpanzer Ru 251, are more similar to tank destroyers from other countries - they are small, mobile, shoot far and hurt, but have virtually no armor. A separate positive quality of the Ru 251 is the ability to use explosive shells with a caliber of 100mm - this allows you to penetrate even some medium tanks and inflict huge damage on them from the inside.

German medium tanks

Germany's first medium tank is the third-rank Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf A - a small, mobile tank with an accurate high-caliber gun (75mm). Its disadvantage is its relatively weak hull armor. Another variant of the German medium tank is the Pz.Kpfw.III - a tank with average parameters in almost everything, which does not have any pronounced disadvantages. Its good weapon, thick frontal armor and sufficient speed allow it to perform almost any function on the battlefield, but it is more difficult to destroy heavy enemies alone. Tank IV Ausf. A later changes to IV Ausf. D, which differs from its predecessor primarily in the caliber of the gun, and then there is a transition to IV, a mobile tank with good frontal armor, which is distinguished by its very large dimensions, especially compared to its predecessors. The next one after it, VK 30.01 (P), does not get smaller - but it becomes stronger and more accurate, and is also equipped with an 88mm caliber gun. It doesn't have good mobility and gets stuck on uneven terrain, but it can accelerate well in a straight line. Later it “evolves” into Tiger (P), a good heavy tank. Tank III, mentioned earlier, is developing in a slightly different direction - the next after it III/IV also remains a good-at-everything, but not-ideal-at-anything tank with good armor, excellent mobility and high penetration, suffering from low rate of fire. The main difference between the next tank, VK 30.01 (D), is only its enormous weight and high health reserves, but the rest of the characteristics are very similar. But this tank again divides the further development of German medium tanks in two - the Panther I and VK 30.02 (D). The Panther is a heavy (by weight) tank with powerful curved frontal armor and extremely accurate, although not the most powerful, weapons. It is more difficult to control and quite large, but otherwise it is an excellent German medium tank. 30.02 (D) is significantly different - it is faster and has very curved armor, which allows it to avoid many shots, but its armor is thinner and a precise hit does more damage to it. He himself, in turn, has a rich arsenal of accurate and powerful weapons. “Panther” then turns into its second version, Panther II, and becomes even better - speed and controllability increase, the weapon becomes more powerful and fires faster. The picture is clouded only by the weak armor of the lower part of the hull. VK 30.02 (D) when upgraded becomes the Indien-Panzer, a small tank with good mobility, good armor, high rate of fire and excellent penetration. Its problems are that it takes a long time to accelerate and aim - but this does not prevent it from being used in mid-range battles. The Panther II then progresses into the E50, a large tank with very thick armor, excellent speed and high weight, capable of destroying enemies with a ram. Its next form looks more interesting - E50 Ausf. M: A relatively slow but quite durable tank with a great gun that can shoot as far as you like, quickly aim to penetrate any target, and deal massive damage. Its disadvantage is the relatively unprotected lower part of the case. Returning to the Indian-Panzer, we should say about the famous “Leopards” that followed it - Leopard Prototyp A and Leopard 1. Their essence is that they have practically paper armor, but at the same time excellent speed and maneuverability are combined with powerful, accurate guns, and small size allows you to evade enemy attacks.

Heavy tanks of Germany

The Reich's heavy tanks are really heavy. All of them are extremely slow (excluding Tiger), but at the same time they have thick armor and large-caliber weapons. Their armor is almost always flat, which is why these tanks are called “boxes”. From Durchbruchswagen 2 to Maus, they all specialize in dealing massive damage to the enemy and containing the damage. The aforementioned rank four Dbw2, for example, has extremely thick armor on all sides and shoots well, but the lack of armor slope makes it a relatively easy target for tanks with high penetration guns. For comparison, the aforementioned Maus of the tenth rank also has flat, but extremely thick armor, the largest reserve of “health” in the game, high-precision weapons and enormous mass, and at the same time it moves slowly. This description applies to almost any German heavy tank, and they are, perhaps, qualitatively less different from each other than any other tanks within the same class (unlike the German medium tanks described above). An exception to this rule is the famous Tiger - the original “Tiger” does not have heavy armor, but develops good speed and very accurately fires 88-caliber shells. Its variation from Porsche - Tiger (P) - differs from it in reduced speed, but thick frontal armor, and the second version of the Tiger, Tiger II, combines thick armor and high speed, and also gains the ability to quickly turn in one place.

German tank destroyer

The first German tank destroyer can be obtained very early - already at the second rank, immediately after the Leichttraktor light tank. The first tank destroyer is called Panzerjager I and in essence it lays the foundation for almost all subsequent tank destroyers in Germany - it is a small vehicle with an accurate gun, capable of shooting at enemies from afar and inflicting quite a lot of damage. The only problem is that the Panzerjager I has virtually no armor, so you will always have to hide - shoot from afar, use bushes and cover. The next one after it, Marder II, focuses less on shooting accuracy and more on damage - being less accurate and not as mobile, Marder II is even smaller in size and must choose a good position, spend time aiming and deliver a powerful blow. A further German tank destroyer is the Hetzer - a tank destroyer well armored at the front due to the curves of the armor, capable of quickly aiming and firing from a variety of guns - both powerful and rapid-fire. The problem with Hetzer is its low mobility and weak side armor - so it is logical to use it in ambushes and try to take a position in which it will not be visible, and try not to move. Next in the German tank destroyer branch is the StuG III Ausf. G, which is characterized by high speed and maneuverability, good rate of fire and high lethality. The disadvantages are thin armor and poor “vision” - this tank is difficult to control without a trained team and improved optics. The Jagdpanzer IV, which comes after it, does not boast high penetration, but it is very low and quite fast, and also has a fairly high rate of fire - to play effectively, you will need to actively move out of sight of the enemy and target their sides and rear parts. Next in the tank destroyer branch is the Jagdpanther, a fast tank with very good weapons, capable of shooting quickly, aiming accurately and dealing good damage. Its downside is that it is fairly easy to spot, and its armor lacks bulges, so the only way to keep it safe is to properly position it at an angle to the enemy so that enemy projectiles ricochet off the curved armor. After this, the tank destroyer development branch suddenly splits in two and allows you to choose between Jagdpanther II and Ferdinand. The second version of the Jagdpanther is much faster and its upper front part has very thick armor - but if you shoot this car from the side, its thin high walls will most likely not withstand and will be easily penetrated. Ferdinand, on the contrary, is slow, but armored on almost all sides and has a good gun (the same one that is on the Maus). The problem is that, despite its low maneuverability, it is large, and its armor, although thick, is flat - it is not difficult to aim at such a tank. The Jagdtiger, next to both models, is a very specialized tank destroyer - it doesn't have much armor and doesn't move particularly fast, and its vision range isn't that great, but it does deal massive damage to anyone in front of it. It shoots quite quickly and deals a lot of damage per shot - the main thing is not to let the enemy get around you. The latest tank destroyer of the German forces, the Jagdpanzer E100, turns into a huge slow-moving bunker on tracks - its armor is extremely thick and effective, and the weapon deals huge damage and penetrates opponents well. It is almost impossible to hide, but this is not necessary - just stand at an angle to the enemy and shoot him until he stops moving. However, you should be careful if the enemy is flanking you or shooting from below - the bottom surface of the Jagdpanzer E100 is not thick enough and can be penetrated even by medium-sized shells if fired correctly.

Conclusion

We've covered almost everythingnon-premiumGerman tanks. Some models were reviewed in more detail due to their exclusivity and effectiveness, others were skipped because they are improved versions of their predecessors. After reading this guide, you can get a complete picture of the features of German tanks and decide how (and whether it is worth it) to develop the development branch of this nation. I hope that this knowledge will help you in battles both on the side of the Reich tanks and in the battle against them. Fight like a pro in World of Tanks Blitz!

Panzerkampfwagen VI "Tiger I" Ausf E was started manually.

How did you start a Tiger?

Tiger tank on the move. Recording of the Panzerkampfwagen VI engine starting in the tank museum. To have a tiger you need strong male hands. The engine of the multi-ton combat vehicle was started manually using a metal brace and a paper clip that physically closed the mechanics.

The first Tiger tanks appeared in service with the German Army in 1937.

Why did tankers fall in love with the new one so quickly? German premium tank destroyer E-25? Almost everyone who has already tried this vehicle in combat knows the answer.

Efficiency and combat effectiveness This low-profile combat unit periodically surprises even the most experienced World of Tanks players.

Screenshot of E-25 combat effectiveness

In this screenshot, the player skated to E-25 only 10 fights. And this means, we can say with confidence that even more successful battles await him ahead.

Geschützwagen Tiger(from German Geschützwagen - carriage and German Tiger - tiger) - experienced German self-propelled 170 mm howitzer. The decision to create heavy self-propelled guns for artillery support was adopted in June 1942. Work on the car was carried out by Krupp. The self-propelled gun concept implied the possibility of installing three different artillery systems on one base chassis: a 170 mm 17 cm Kanone 72 cannon, a 210 mm 21 cm Morser howitzer and a 305 mm Skoda GrW L/16 mortar, which is why the vehicle received a rather long official name Geschützwagen "Tiger" fur 17 cm K72(Sf), fur 21 cm Mrs 18/1(Sf) und 30.5 cm GrW Sf I-606/9. A similar concept was used as the basis for the Soviet heavy self-propelled gun Su-14.

Research and upgrade of GW-Tiger

GW-Tiger can be researched after Gw-Panther for 166,000 experience

By purchasing the GW-Tiger self-propelled gun, you move to level 7 of the German artillery tree. To start the game on GW-Tiger with maximum efficiency, install previously researched modules on it. These could be the FuG 12 radio and engines: Maybach HL 210 P 30 and Maybach HL 230 P 45, which are being studied on VK 3001 (H) and VK 3601 (H). First of all, it is recommended to study the chassis of the GW-Tiger-Ketten Ausf. B for 16940 experience. It will increase the carrying capacity and allow you to install all the necessary modules, as well as a top-end weapon. Then the research can be directed towards the 21cm mortar Mrs 18/1(Sf) for 67500 experience. This is one of the best tier 7 self-propelled guns in the game. Its projectiles have splash damage of 7 squares around the point of impact and cause significant damage to heavy equipment.

Combat effectiveness of GW-Tiger

GW-Tiger- very effective self-propelled guns. This is due to low maneuverability and a long reload, but mostly due to the fact that the art predecessor Gw-Panther has a completely different effective style of play, so you actually have to learn to play all over again. On the other hand, if you understand this tank, learn to converge in advance, change position in time, then the enemies will be unpleasantly surprised by their losses from each of your shots.

Advantages of GW-Tiger

• High damage from 210 mm mortar shells
• Large radius of dispersion of fragments of HE shells
• High (for self-propelled guns) durability

Disadvantages of GW-Tiger

• The large size of self-propelled guns makes camouflage more difficult
• Low maneuverability
• Very small horizontal aiming angles
• Long mixing

The most anticipated thing in the World of Tanks game is the introduction of the second branch of German anti-tank self-propelled guns in the fall of 2017.

Popularity German tank destroyer among players is incredibly high. In addition, according to our data, kindly provided via the WoT API, the number of fully upgraded tankers is quite large and is in first place among all represented nations.

Introduction of the second full branch of German tank destroyers, is expected to cause a surge in upgrades from gamers. Now the most popular type among combat vehicles is the tank destroyer. In anticipation of the second branch of the Germans, players have already begun to accumulate free experience. The opportunity to immediately upgrade several levels of the new branch of German tank destroyers will uncontrollably motivate players to gain experience.

As usual and 2nd branch of German tank destroyers there will be a level 10 car. The portal site already knows exactly which machines formed the final new branch of Germany, but we cannot share it openly, being a partner of the World of Tanks project and having taken upon ourselves, as you understand, certain obligations (in particular, refusal to publish technical specifications before the official announcement.

In any case, detailed information will be immediately posted on our fan site for the game as soon as such an opportunity presents itself to us. In the meantime, here's more screenshot of a tank destroyer from a new thread for your consideration:

- German tank destroyer level 10. German military design thought during the Second World War. One of the representatives of the ambitious plans of the Germans can be considered self-propelled anti-tank gun JagdPz E-100.

Characteristics of the JagdPz E-100 tank destroyer

Heavy German tank "Maus" officially became the face of the game World of Tanks. When playing World of Tanks, it’s impossible not to take a ride on this miracle of German engineering.

Maus - the official tank of the game

There has been a lot of talk in the gaming community about invisible armor shields surrounding tanks. At the war machine PzKpfw IV Schmalturm Such screens can be examined in detail. After all, they represent lattice protection for the chassis, which gives the latter increased protection against damage to the harp.

PzKpfw IV Schmalturm

German premium tank Schmalturm has gun 7.5 cm KwK 44/1 L/70, which easily penetrates the armor of any tank of its level. The effectiveness of combat on the tank is achieved due to good armor penetration of 150/194/38 mm, a high rate of fire of 13.04 rounds per minute, as well as amazingly smooth and accurate aiming. Average damage caused by this weapon Schmalturm tank, not high 135/135/175 (HP), but it is easily compensated by the positive aspects of the tank that we described above. As a result, we get increased DPM (Damage per Second), which, together with a stable ranking in the top three tanks after the balance of a random battle, allows us, without straining in each average battle, to have a stable income in the form of double game credits and double experience.

A German light tank, best suited for destroying enemies of the same level or finishing off high-level tanks in close combat.
It is the starting tank for opening all branches of German armored vehicles, in particular the PzKpfw 35(t), PzKpfw II, Panzerjager I and Sturmpanzer I "Bison" tanks.
