In this episode I take a quick look at the new tanks introduced onto the Patch 1.49 Dev server, such as the new American tank destroyers, Stuh 42 and the new Russian AAA truck!
Unfortunately their does seem to be the odd voice stutter in the video, but it should only affect one or two lines in the video.

00:00Hello everybody, Tereno here, and welcome back to the patch 1.49 dev server.
00:05In this episode I'll be looking at tanks that have been added in patch 1.49.
00:10Now I should warn this was all recorded in one chunk and split into separate episodes,
00:14it may come as a bit incoherent or may reference the things I haven't actually said.
00:18There also does seem to be occasional stuttering of sound, I don't know how to fix that,
00:23it just seems to be happening for some reason, but anyway that's the introduction over,
00:27I hope you enjoy the episode.
00:30Now the other thing everyone's looking at, or looking forward to looking at,
00:33is the American tank destroyers.
00:36Now again I can't really test a lot of these, but I can test some of them.
00:40We'll start off with the M2A2, which is already unlocked, we'll quickly customize it.
00:46It's even bought I think, so one 12.7mm machine gun and a 7.62mm machine gun.
00:53I was hoping it would have two .50 caliber machine guns, but apparently not.
00:57I've already got a lot of it unlocked as well, so okay, I don't understand this.
01:03Now the, oh, ah, we've got a bunch of whole new, um,
01:09oh, how do you call it, penetration characteristics, um, okay.
01:14Well you can see here the 12.7mm machine gun is quite okay at tier 1,
01:18it can penetrate nearly 30mm of armor at tier 1.
01:23You can see how it changes depending on the angle, that wasn't there before,
01:26so 10m 28mm at 0 degrees, at 60 that's halved, or more than halved, to 13mm.
01:35Um, armor, uh, we'll look at the armor.
01:40Again, quite good armor.
01:42Um, well, actually it's not very good armor, um, but it's sloped,
01:45so here it's 30mm, so that's okay.
01:49The turrets themselves, um, 20mm roughly, they're not great if I'm honest.
01:56Crew, uh, four crew, we've got two gunners,
01:59oh, a gunner commander and driver and machine gunner.
02:04I don't, I don't think that machine gun down here actually works,
02:07I'm for increased firepower by a third, considering one's already a 7.62mm machine gun.
02:14Now we'll look at the 75mm GMC as well quickly.
02:18Again, just the cannon, no actual machine gun.
02:22Armor again is very bad, the gun shield's like 12mm, it might block the odd stray bullet.
02:29Um, you know, you're not, here it's about 50, but you'd have to hit it at such a weird slope,
02:35you know, most shots are just gonna go through that engine bit and kill everything back here.
02:40Um, again, the ammunition's on the floor, like we said,
02:44uh, oh, I looked at, it says on the dev blog article that it was all on the floor,
02:47so, um, and again, four crew, gunner, loader, uh, commander, driver.
02:54Now look at the modifications.
02:57So again, um, at 0 degrees, 100m, uh, at 10m, 112 penetration, at 60 degrees, 27,
03:05so this should be okay.
03:07I've been using the 30 degree, um, angle, because that seems quite a bit more than what
03:12most tanks are actually doing, because this is meant to be slightly worse than the Sherman,
03:16but I don't think the Sherman was even this good.
03:19Um, with the M61, that's actually got less penetration, but,
03:23because it's capped, I think it does more damage.
03:26Not really sure, um, should be an okay tank destroyer for its, um, rank and battle rating.
03:33Uh, battle rating 2.3, yeah, there we go.
03:37Now we'll look at the M10 GMC, uh, the Wolverine, uh, 76mm cannon and the machine gun.
03:45We'll look at modifications first.
03:48Again, quite very good penetration, 127mm at 0 degrees at 10m, but again, 40 at 60 degrees.
03:56Um, yeah, the improved, yeah, the, uh, you can go from
04:02armour-piercing ballistic cap to armour-piercing, which increases the penetration.
04:07Um, it should be quite, you know, quite a good tank.
04:11Uh, we'll look at the armour, if we can get it up.
04:16Armours, it's okay, it's very lightly armoured, it should be able to take one or two shots
04:21from low calibre weapons, but, you know, it's not something that can stick around and fight
04:25toe-to-toe with most other tanks.
04:27Even the mantlet's, like, maxed out at 80.
04:30Uh, it's got a little bit of sloping, but hardly worth mentioning.
04:35Um, it's an open-top turret, so, you know, you can machine gun it with, um, aircraft.
04:40Five crew, driver, machine gunner, commander, gunner and loader.
04:44Gunner's all stooped down to some odd position.
04:47Um, we'll check the next tank, the M18 GMC, or otherwise known as the Hellcat.
04:56Again, check the modifications, 76mm gun again.
05:00Oh, you can upgrade to armour, piercing, composite, rigid.
05:03So, 240mm of penetration at 10m at 0 degrees, or at 60, uh, 53.
05:12So, again, depending on how well sloped the armour is.
05:16Uh, the stock shell's 127mm at 10m, or 40 at 60 degrees, um, at 10m.
05:24Check the armour, again, I think it's actually worse than the Wolverine.
05:28Um, let's look.
05:30Again, even with sloping, it barely maxes out at 20 odd millimetres on the hull.
05:35Mantlet's at 38, you know, it's not very good armour.
05:39But again, it's meant to be a shoot-and-scoot tank, uh, 50mph max speed.
05:44So, you know, very fast, um, meant to sort of hit and run targets.
05:49Again, it's got no actual turret roof.
05:53Um, one, two, three, four, five, five crew again.
05:56One huge engine at the back.
05:58Uh, gunner, loader, commander, command.
06:02Well, that's...
06:03Oh, the machine gunner's at the top, and the commander's down the bottom.
06:05Well, that's a bit odd, or different.
06:08I believe they're actually going to have the machine gunner showing up as well.
06:10Um, before, at the moment, they're just sort of flying visibly.
06:14Um, we'll look at the M36.
06:15We'll come back to the Black Cat in a minute.
06:17Look at the M36 Jackson.
06:20Now, the armour's improved, but it's also higher battle rating and tier.
06:24So, you know, that's...
06:25That improvement's basically wiped out straight away.
06:27The mantlet's a bit better, about 80mm, um, or 100, um, depending where you hit.
06:33Um, but again, it's not all that great.
06:36Um, commander, gunner, loader, machine gunner, driver again.
06:42Some of the ammunition's been quite, um, exposed on the top of the Jackson,
06:46in this little compartment here.
06:49Um, look at the armour for the back, actually.
06:51Oh, that bit's only 25mm.
06:53Yeah, you're going to be arrow-racked quite easily.
06:57Um, it's got some tracks on the side, which may block one or two shots.
07:01Now, this has a 90mm gun, so...
07:04Stock ammo, 188mm at 0°, 100m, or 60 at 100m, 60°.
07:11Can upgrade to composite rigid, which gives a 302mm penetration,
07:16100m, 0°, or 67 at 100m, um, 60°.
07:24Now, uh, last one, T95.
07:28Hull armour and turret armour at the front, 300mm, oh god.
07:33Let's look at the gun first.
07:35Because I haven't actually been able to find, um, penetration stats for this.
07:40Um, 100m, 0°, 248mm, or 70 at 60°.
07:47Um, or with the composite rigid shell,
07:51300mm, 322mm penetration at 0°, or 60° for 100m.
07:58Okay, that's going to...
08:00Wait, let me just check the mouse.
08:01300mm, oh, we'll go back to the T95.
08:07Okay, the mouse is going to be completely destroyed.
08:10Right, so now that we've established that, um, let's go back to the T95.
08:16Um, I did, I did read that right, didn't I?
08:18300mm, yeah, 300mm.
08:23And armour, oh god, it's not really...
08:27Oh, actually, it's sloped on the sides a little bit, up to 400mm.
08:30The mantlet's 291mm, but effectively 300 something.
08:36Oh god.
08:38Right, from the side, now the actual...
08:40Oh, it's quite well sloped, actually.
08:42Down the bottom it's something like 100mm,
08:44but at the top it's only 60, because the sloping is nearly 100.
08:48That could do a little bit better than I expected.
08:50Uh, the back's 50, so, just, no, that's just not going to protect you.
08:56Uh, where's all the crew in this?
08:57I mean, what, it's just that engine that's taking up the whole back,
09:01oh, and that huge cannon breach.
09:03There's one, two, three...
09:04One, two, three...
09:06Yeah, four crew, driver, gunner, commander, loader, uh, ammunition all up the side,
09:11so if you do get penetrated, you are going to die.
09:14Is there any information? No.
09:17Right, we'll go.
09:18Now, this has four tracks, so I believe the T28's only going to get two.
09:23Battle rate in 6.7, I don't know if that's a placeholder or not,
09:27but yeah, that's going to be very overpowered.
09:31Quickly look at the T28.
09:32Um, the T28 is going to be battle rating 4.6.3, so lower than the T95,
09:40and it's going to be tier 4, because I was wondering if they were going to put it at
09:42tier 5, which they haven't done with premiums.
09:45We can actually test drive this one, so I'll quickly do that in a minute.
09:48Um, again, it's narrower because it's got some of the tracks taken off.
09:53I don't think there's any other difference other than that, you know, it's narrower,
09:57so it can fit through spaces and all that a bit easier, I suppose.
10:01Other than that, it seems basically identical.
10:03Um, we'll take it out for a really quick test drive on realistic battles.
10:08Um, no, we can't fit the other ammunition, unfortunately.
10:12So here we are in the T...
10:14Is this the T28? That was it.
10:16Uh, commander view.
10:18So the driver view is quite a bit above the gun, um, which seems a bit odd.
10:22Uh, oh, you're probably looking through that bit at the top.
10:25Let's just test it against the first target, and then we test the speed while we're going.
10:30Um, oh, if I miss this...
10:37Wow, um, okay, that... that was good.
10:40Well done, let's test the speed quickly.
10:44Um, it's slow, but not as slow as I thought it would be.
10:49This is on realistic, I think.
10:52Um, oh, actually, turning is kind of...
10:54It's slow, but not as slow as I thought it would be.
10:57Um, I do apologise for the shadows in the distance.
10:59I don't know if it was the update or something, but my settings all got changed again.
11:04Which always seems to happen, right, when they do certain updates.
11:08But there we go.
11:10Um, we'll test fire another shot.
11:12Can we hit that target all the way back there?
11:16Yep.
11:17Oh, they seem to have changed it damn well.
11:19Um, I don't know.
11:20Test reverse speed quickly.
11:22Right, two miles an hour.
11:24Okay, that's quite bad.
11:26We'll do one more test shot.
11:27Against this Panda 2, and then we'll check out the M18 Black Cat.
11:33Oh, that doesn't work.
11:34Actually, before we leave the test server, I haven't tested this against the mouse.
11:39Uh, shot one bounced.
11:41Um, I might have to pause this a little bit every now and then, just to see, you know,
11:44how it goes, because it's going to take a long time.
11:48Uh, we're actually shooting at a very dodgy angle, so I'll just sort of pause the, um,
11:52video, or stop talking, just show you the highlights.
11:56You know, if I manage to penetrate or not.
12:04Uh, taking another shot.
12:09Uh, well, we managed to hit the track.
12:10Um, right, so here we are at the sides of the Pan- uh, Panther, the mouse.
12:16Almost dead on, and it's just not going through.
12:20I'm going to try a shot or two from the rear, because this is just ridiculous.
12:24I mean, even point-blank, this thing's struggling like hell to get through the armor.
12:28I don't think I've had one penetrating shot so far, but I'll keep trying.
12:33Right, so trying a shot right from the back.
12:38Finally, from the rear, I managed a penetration at point-blank range, but the sides and the
12:44front, no chance, not with stock ammunition.
12:48It took me a bloody long time to get up here, though.
12:51It took me a bloody long time to get up here as well.
12:54That took me nearly five minutes just to drive up here.
12:57It takes, like, one in most other tanks.
13:00While I'm up here, just see if I can hit this Panther D.
13:04Yep, got it, just about.
13:06So, yeah, there's the T95.
13:08Um, not particularly great against enemy mouses, if I'm completely honest.
13:14Um, nice little tank, but I really wouldn't, at first, be worried about it.
13:20Still clubbing everything, well, you know, uh, not the mouses at least,
13:24until it gets the upgraded ammunition.
13:26Now, look at the Black Cat, which, um, as you can see, is a bit different in that it
13:30doesn't have a muzzle brake, and I can't remember if it has side skirts or not, um,
13:35see when it loads up, or chip modifications, um, it's the same gun, I believe.
13:40It's the same gun, same ammunition.
13:43Oh, it hasn't got the side skirts, and it hasn't got a muzzle brake,
13:46and it's got the, um, camouflage.
13:48Now, we'll quickly test drive this really quickly.
13:52No, we can't take any other shells.
13:53Test out speed, the gun, all that sort of stuff.
13:57So here we are, the M16 Black Cat.
13:59You can see the machine gunner at the top.
14:01Uh, just find the machine gun a little bit.
14:06Doesn't really seem to react too much.
14:09See if we can hit the Panther at the back again.
14:13Okay, my, wasn't too good there.
14:15Let's test out the speed while we reload.
14:18Actually, let's try and hit a target on the move.
14:23Yeah, um, right, we're at 27 miles per hour, so
14:27remember we're going to be going slower on, um, muds and roads.
14:31We'll work our way over to the road, actually, um, which is over here.
14:36Got a fairly fast turret traverse.
14:40So, oh, actually, that's really fast.
14:44So, it's really fast speed, you know, driving.
14:48And it's got a really quick turret.
14:50So, yeah, this is going to be a really good ambush tank.
14:54Right, let's test it on this road.
14:56Ah, it's not a stone road like I hoped it would be.
14:58But let's see if it helps a little bit.
15:01No, we seem to be maxing out about 27 miles an hour, so.
15:06Breaks quickly as well, so, yeah, it seems like a good little tank destroyer.
15:11But, yeah, that's enough testing for that for the minute.
15:14We'll test out the T, um, T95, oh god, the M3 GMC and the M2A2 quickly as well,
15:21just to see how they are.
15:23The M2A2, our test, is going to be really quick, I suspect,
15:26since it is just a machine gun armed tank.
15:29Only good for dealing with reserve tier tanks.
15:33Check out the 75mm.
15:36Uh, I've also got the test drive, test drive.
15:38Test drive.
15:41So here we are, the M3 GMC, um.
15:45Fairly, uh, it's a bit slow on the turret traverse, but, you know, it's an old cannon.
15:52See how fast we can go.
15:55While firing, trying to take a quick snapshot.
15:58Oh, we actually hit the target.
16:00So this is still 20 miles an hour.
16:02Remember the Hellcat got to 27.
16:05In a half track we've got to 24.
16:07So the Hellcat's speed is definitely going to be on the roads.
16:12Did firing the gun just slow us down, or is that just something else?
16:17No, it's the gun firing that did that.
16:22And it turns fairly quick.
16:23So, yeah, it seems like a good enough tank, um, tank to show at the moment.
16:27It's fast, it's got a good gun.
16:30I mean, again, you can't, it's hard to sort of test the gun on the, um,
16:34test drive, because there's lots of different tanks.
16:38It doesn't really replicate the sort of angles you'll be shooting at.
16:41Like, you know, people, um, angling their tank and stuff.
16:45Quickly test drive the M2A2 just to see how it is.
16:49I honestly don't think this is, it's going to be an okay tank,
16:52but I thought it'd have two .50 caliber machine guns.
16:55Having just one's seriously going to affect its firepower.
16:58I don't even know if the 7.62 millimeter machine gun can penetrate it much.
17:04You know, it's not a very good machine gun.
17:06I mean, it was never designed to deal with tanks, whereas the .50 caliber could,
17:10you know, in the 30s and 20s, probably deal with most tanks quite, you know, well.
17:16.50 caliber one's on the right.
17:23Now that's the normal machine gun.
17:25Um, the 7.62 millimeter machine gun.
17:30See how fast we can get.
17:31Um, well, we've already overtaken the Hellcat, um,
17:36although that had much better armor and weapons, so I think that...
17:41Um, okay, we're actually having quite a bit of trouble penetrating this.
17:45I may have picked the wrong ammunition loadout, though.
17:47I think I went with omnipurpose, possibly.
17:50Although I didn't, I don't think it gave me the option for anything else.
17:53Oh, we did hit something inside and we set it on fire, so...
17:57It's not like it's a bad tank, it's just not what I would particularly want when going into battle.
18:04Now, I've heard you can penetrate the Panzer IV.
18:10But, yeah, we penetrate the Panzer IV and hit the gunner, so...
18:14Yeah, so it's still marginally useful against higher tier tanks.
18:18I just wouldn't recommend it, if I'm honest.
18:20Like, you know, it's just to get you to the, um, M3,
18:25and then you can just leave it, presumably.
18:29We also have this, uh, new tank here.
18:31The M5A1 Stuart, 5th Canadian Armoured Division.
18:35Basically, it just seems to be an M5, yeah, M5A1 Stuart,
18:38but with a different paint job, um, I'm assuming.
18:42Yeah, it seems to have its own unique insignia,
18:44but other than that, it seems more or less the same, as far as I can tell.
18:50So now we've tested out the, um, American tank destroyers,
18:53we'll go over to the German tanks.
18:55Only one new one, the Stur 42G, with the 105mm howitzer.
19:01Um, let me just, um, armour, AT3050.
19:05Same armour as the, um, uh, the, what do you call it?
19:09The StuG III G, um, which I did say in my dev blog article,
19:14um, well, round-up episode.
19:16Yeah, basically the same armour.
19:18It's only the gun that's really different.
19:19Um, 77 at, uh, 65 at 100 metres at 0 degrees, or 16 at 60 degrees.
19:27Um, carries heat with 115mm, two different heat shells,
19:31high explosive, yeah, 28mm for high explosive.
19:36Um, speed is, uh, what's the speed?
19:39I can't find it.
19:4025 miles an hour, um, compare that to the StuG III G.
19:45It's the same speed, um, we'll quickly, we'll quickly
19:48give it a test drive just to, uh, we can only take out
19:52armour pierced in 77, or 65mm penetration.
19:57I honestly don't think there's gonna, it's gonna be a really short test drive.
20:00There isn't really much I can do with it.
20:02I mean, literally the only thing different about it is that gun.
20:05And, you know, um, apart from one or two test shots,
20:08I can't really test the other, you know,
20:10I can't show how good it would be in-game in an online match.
20:15I mean, I can give you rough, um, guidance,
20:19but really it's gonna be the heat shells everyone's gonna use,
20:21and I can't show them, because I haven't unlocked this tank.
20:25Uh, test it against, oh, it's a really low velocity, oh great.
20:29I mean, it turned out well, it blew up right underneath the T-26.
20:34And it's got a ridiculously long reload.
20:38Well, maybe not ridiculously long, but...
20:42So, oh, come on.
20:45Oh, and that one was just too far.
20:46Right, one last shot and then I'll leave it,
20:49because there isn't much I could show.
20:50I don't think the, oh no, the G does actually.
20:54And again, this is tier two, I believe, before the StuG III G,
20:57so if you want to get the StuG III G, I would hurry up and get this.
21:02Okay, um, yeah, it's not particularly great, this tank.
21:05I managed to miss again.
21:07I mean, it's okay, but it does seem like a really short-ranged weapon.
21:11I mean, I just can't use the low velocity weapons.
21:14You saw with the T-95, I was quite good there,
21:16hit every single one of my shots first time,
21:18but that, I managed to barely hit the first time.
21:21The second and third time, I completely missed.
21:25Now, we'll quickly look at the Russian new tanks.
21:28Now, first I'm looking at the STZ, because this really confused me.
21:33As far as I can tell, oh, actually, yeah, go back a sec.
21:36Whole armour 60, the one after it's 45 and the one before it's 45.
21:42So, I assume this is just an up-armoured T-34 tank.
21:47I'll go back to preview.
21:49I think it's got the same gun as the normal T-34s.
21:51I don't know if it's the long-barrelled one.
21:54Yeah, it seems to have the same gun.
21:55It just has the whole armour up-armoured.
21:58That seems to be the only difference I can tell.
22:01You know, it's had extra armour bolted on.
22:03So, yeah, there isn't really much to say about this tank.
22:05It's the same everywhere, except the front has a bit of bolted-on armour.
22:09It's got an F-34 cannon, the same as the T-34 1942.
22:15Nothing else for this line-up, I don't think.
22:17Nothing for the light tanks.
22:18Now, here we've got an SU-122-54.
22:21I think it's a T-54 with a 122mm gun and two 14.5mm machine guns.
22:30Right, look at the armour.
22:32Okay, that's quite sloped, so 150mm.
22:35It's better than the ISU-152 armour-wise, but still not great.
22:40You know, it's still going to be penetrated by everything.
22:42It's just, you know, lower-calibre weapons are going to be less effective
22:46if you happen to be up-tiered,
22:48or, you know, your battle rating ends up putting you in a match against this somehow.
22:52So armour looks okay.
22:54I mean, it's not great.
22:56It's better than, like I said, the ISU-152.
22:59Now, let's look at the ammunition.
23:01Stock is 200mm at 100m at 0 degrees, or 49mm at 60 degrees, or 159mm at 30.
23:10Does it come with heat?
23:12Heat shell, I have 400mm.
23:15Armour piercing, discarding, sabot shell.
23:17I don't think...
23:18I think only the Bulldog has this.
23:20315mm at 0 degrees, or 70mm at 60, 246mm at 30.
23:28The rest are generally less than that.
23:29They're, like, around 200mm, 223mm.
23:33But the discarding sabre and the heat shell are just going to be ridiculously overpowered.
23:38I can't test drive it, unfortunately.
23:40We'll look inside the tank.
23:42Well, ammunition's all over the place.
23:45Four...
23:45Oh, five crew, gunner, commander, driver, loader, loader.
23:50So...
23:52And quick reloading, mate.
23:53Well, quick compared to some other tanks.
23:5618.6, so that's going to be really overpowered, I think.
24:00I feel sorry for anyone who has to meet up against that.
24:04Now, next we've got the 4M GAZ AAA.
24:10Yeah, four 7.62mm machine guns.
24:14In a truck.
24:15After all, I've got to test drive this just to see...
24:181mm armour, 1mm penetration at, um...
24:23Something like 100m.
24:25Oh god, I've just got to see how fast this fires.
24:28Three crew, gunner, driver, commander.
24:30Really, really quickly test drive this just to see the speed of it.
24:35All right, let's just see how fast this thing fires.
24:39Wow, that is a lot of ammunition.
24:42It's got 4,000 bullets.
24:43Jesus Christ.
24:45This thing's going to be insane.
24:47And without a chute, it's not a heavy gun.
24:50All right, so the truck's going to be able to go quite fast as well.
24:53It's more appropriate for, like, I don't know, killing infantry than, like...
24:57It's an anti-aircraft tank, but, um, yeah, it's for anti-aircraft work, but...
25:02I don't know, I just...
25:04It looks like something out of a World War I movie.
25:07I don't know, but yeah, that's going to be a fun vehicle.
25:12It's not going to be that useful for anything, but it'll be very fun.
25:16Now, there's only a few more tanks to look at.
25:19Now, there's only a few more tanks to look at.
25:21There's the TU...
25:23Not TU-51, SU-57.
25:26Um, quickly check that out.
25:30Basically an M3 half-truck, um, half-track with a 57mm gun on it.
25:36Um, 137mm at 0 degrees, 100 meters.
25:40109 at 30 degrees, 33 at 60.
25:44Um, what's the next shell?
25:46Is that even that much different?
25:48The next shell's less penetration, but because it's ballistic capped, I think it does more damage.
25:52Uh, four crew, gunner, loader, commander, driver.
25:56Um, should I...
25:59I'll give it a really quick test drive.
26:00I don't think it's going to be that much different to the, um, GMC, um, M3 GMC.
26:06It's just a Russian Premium, basically.
26:08Um, but you know, we'll see how it goes quickly.
26:11Right, so we'll take a quick shot at, um, the Panther.
26:15See if I can actually hit it.
26:18Um, yeah, I'm near enough to a hit.
26:21Test the speed quickly, um.
26:25Again, this thing doesn't look particularly well-armoured, um.
26:29Take another shot just to see.
26:31Reload's fairly quick as well, so.
26:36Yeah, and we can penetrate a Panther's side.
26:38I think it seems quite a good tank, and with that reloading speed.
26:42But I don't think this is with, um, an upgraded crew or anything,
26:45because I'm just test driving, so.
26:47If you put some, if you put some, um, points into your crew reloading skills,
26:50it'd probably be quite a good tank.
26:53It's just it seems to be massively over-penetrating everything, so.
26:57That's probably going to be the main problem with it.
26:59Quickly check the arm of the gun shield.
27:01Yeah, 12mm, so it's not going to be well-protected, if I'm honest.
27:05The rest of the vehicles are Premiums, uh.
27:07The SU-76 seems to just be a re-skinned, um, normal SU-76, I think, but Premium.
27:14Um, yeah, it's got some, I don't think there's much difference to it, um, that I can see.
27:21Um, just seems to have a unique skin and Premium.
27:24There's an IS-2, which is like the, um, Revenge.
27:28If we can get that up.
27:31Again, seems roughly the same as normal IS-2s.
27:34I don't know if this is a 1944 or not, um.
27:36Again, unique camouflage or, you know, writing on it.
27:40Um, if we go back, well, D-5, uh, D-25T, um.
27:47Yeah, it's the same cannon, just check the armour.
27:50100mm, 120.
27:54Yeah, so I don't know if it's a model 1944 or not, um.
27:59And the T-34-85E, I think this is going to be a...
28:03I think this is another one with bolted-on armour.
28:06Oh god, what the hell?
28:07I think, oh, I think these are those bed mattress things that are meant to disrupt heat or something.
28:13And they count as 5mm, oh god.
28:17I don't know if it's had some bolted-on armour at the front.
28:19I don't think, I don't know, I can't really tell, um, 45mm.
28:24I don't know if the turret armour's had some bolted-on armour at the front, um.
28:29Yeah, this seems a bit different, um.
28:32Yeah, I think you can see some of the bolted-on armour, um, I don't know.
28:37I can't tell, um, usually it's quite easy to tell because it's got all bolts around it and stuff, but.
28:42I don't know, maybe it welded armour on, um.
28:45That's 90, 75 and 52, what's the normal?
28:4985.
28:51Oh, so it does have the same armour, what?
28:53That's, okay, so it is just literally bed stuff that's been strapped to it, like.
28:59Are they going to actually make any difference?
29:01I, maybe against heat shields they might, I don't know, um.
29:05Yeah, I'm not really sure what to think of that, um.
29:07Maybe someone with more information can tell us, I, I don't know, it seems a bit odd.
29:12It looks like some armour's been bolted-on at the back, but I can't, knowing me I'm probably still wrong, um.
29:18Yeah, I can't really tell, um, I'll have to look at that tank in more detail another time.
29:23But yeah, I think that was pretty much it for tanks today, um.
29:27I don't know when the dev server's closing, but it's open today, April 23rd.
29:30I think it just said it's closing, when they close it, and they didn't say when it's open.
29:34They didn't give a specific time, so, um, yeah, um, hope you enjoyed this episode, uh,
29:39looking at the tanks on the dev server, um.
