00:00Hello everybody, Toreno here, and today we're
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined3
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedThis is coming in at rank four, battle rating 7.3.
00:24Now, there has been some controversy about
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined7
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedminute or a reload rate of 6.6 seconds, but it's
00:45actually 11.9 seconds in-game. I'm pretty
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined11
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe'll start off with the main gun. Like I said,
01:02it's got an 11.9-second reload rate, and it's got
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined15
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedshould be really powerful because it's got
01:273 kg more TNT, but it's actually only got 2
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined19
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand they are mounted on the roof of the vehicle.
01:53So, you have two 7.62 mm machine guns. Armour is
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined23
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwell-armoured. The roof maxes out at 30 mm with
02:21a little bit of RHA armour on top, so you are
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined27
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedforward and 5.4 mph going backward on two
02:47gears. You have a crew of four: the driver
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined31
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhich does look rather nice, to be honest.
03:12So, let's take this out for a quick test drive
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined35
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe haven't been able to destroy it from the front.
03:39Getting a little bit closer, and while the reload
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined39
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedworld, but not the slowest by any stretch of
04:04the imagination either. That's us going
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined43
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe turret turns, and you can see it's not a
04:33quick turner. It's not a quick turner in the
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined47
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmost enemy aircraft. As you can see, it has got
05:01a standard rangefinder, so it's going to take a
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined51
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda self-propelled gun—very lightly armoured
05:30and mobile. There's just nothing really special
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
undefined:undefined55
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedits flawed stats potentially, but I think it will
05:52be a serviceable prize if you unlock it. Like I
undefined:undefined00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:11,080
