World of tanks which is the best tank. Tips for beginners: which tank is better in World of tanks, and how to buy it


Today, one of the most popular computer games in the world is World of Tanks (WoT), which gathers on average about one million people in front of computer monitors, and this is only the Russian-speaking part of the Internet. Every player wants to “kill” the enemy by shooting the most frags and doing the most damage, and this can only be done with the best tanks in the game. We meet the ten best tanks of the World of Tanks, just note that the information is relevant for patch 8.11. Yes, half of the tanks are designed for people with straight arms who think with their heads, and not those who rush forward headlong.

In tenth place we have the British tank tank FV215b (183), which inflicts simply terrifying damage for the enemy with one shot of 1750 XP, which, by a fortunate combination of circumstances, is capable of destroying almost any tank of the ninth level and seriously crippling a dozen. Here's one bad thing: this device is designed for rich pinocchios who are ready to throw gold left and right. To produce maximum damage, you will have to shoot gold land mines, which cause damage in any case. It is advisable to have even handles, the tank is quite oblique and takes a very long time to reload.

The French arta boasts a drum for four shells, good accuracy (as for an arta, of course), fast aiming and high speed. The rotating turret allows you to track the enemy with virtually no loss of information. People with straight arms on the Bat Chatillon 155 can fight off light and medium tanks quite well. Don’t forget, this device has fairly average damage among its classmates, so first we select medium-armored targets with “soft” roofs, and take non-standard places, since speed allows.

8. T-62A

In eighth place we got the top Soviet medium tank, with a cardboard hull that can be penetrated by anyone and everyone, a machine gun instead of a cannon, and an impenetrable cast-iron turret. We hide along the ditch, exposing only the tower, or at speed we try to spin the enemy, as a variant, for the first half of the battle we can pretend to be a PT.

7. KV-1

The Soviet armored monster KV-1 is probably one of the best tanks of the fifth level in the world of tanks, which many classmates simply cannot penetrate, and for lower-level tanks it is simply a monster on tracks that brings death. We slowly drive forward, shooting everything that moves along the way. If we meet tanks on the 6th or 7th, we try not to run into trouble by traveling far ahead alone.

6. Object 268

The sixth place in the top of the best tanks in the “World of Tanks” was taken by the PTShka Object 268, for which Comrade Stalin personally developed the stealth system and nano-armor, which received a 152mm gun. We stand in a secluded corner behind the bushes and begin to take hits of 750 HP, while on this device you remain almost invisible. When the enemies finally notice the object, the armor comes into play, repelling almost everything that flies into the anti-tank. So that it’s not boring at all, the device also drives well.

A jet kid flying at the speed of sound, with a pretty good gun. The main tactic of this PT is to quickly take a comfortable position and drive the enemy to white heat, preventing him from moving. The rotating tower adds even more joy and fun to your opponents. By pumping up your camouflage, installing a camouflage net and a Hellcat pipe, you become a real ninja, terrifying those around you.

4. Waffenträger auf E 100

A deadly German waffle, driving at the speed of a formula one car with a six-shot plasma gun capable of turning any tank in the game, even the tenth level, into ashes with one salvo. An incredibly accurate weapon with almost instantaneous aiming, which also rotates, brings special joy and amusement to the enemy. It’s just that only people with hands can handle the Waffenträger auf E 100 correctly, due to the excessive fluffiness of the PTShka and the size of a two-story house, which cannot be hidden.

Another paper drum project T57 Heavy Tank took third place. It would seem to be made of paper with an armor thickness of 127 mm, which in theory can be pierced with a stick, in practice it perfectly deflects shells. A gun with four shells in a drum with a good aiming time, where each shot deals an average of 400 damage, is simply incredibly pleasing to the enemy.

The French AT has an almost impenetrable cast-iron forehead and a three-shot machine gun instead of a cannon, which produces one-time damage of 750 xp, penetrating 293 mm armor right through with conventional shells. On this device, even armless disabled people can do 2000 damage per battle, simply by getting out into a crowd of enemies and shooting off a drum, and thinking players simply burn everything out. The main thing here is not to expose your weak sides and exchange fire at long and medium distances, so that the adversaries cannot target the paper turret from above.

1. KV-1S

The most fun and also the best tank in World of Tanks is the KV-1S, also known as “kvass,” which allows you to commit genocide to everything that moves, even to an average player. Here the car has everything it needs for a happy life. Good mobility allows you to rush from flank to flank and quickly find yourself in the right place. Excellent armor, which is not always too tough for classmates thanks to the rational slopes of the armor, which the developers for some reason call cardboard. Just a fantastic gun, delivering 390 damage at level 6, from which tanks of the fifth and lower levels burst from one shot, and classmates crawl away like one-shot disabled people. We crawl out from around the corner, take good aim and delight our opponents with wild damage.

The main thing in the game is, obviously, the tanks. Historical, which existed and fought on different continents of the world, reliable paper models and bits of projects that have already been completed and thought out by the developers, each individual vehicle in the World of Tanks has its own, special and unique history. And, as they say, for every product there is a merchant, so in our game for every tank there is someone who can call it his favorite!

Well, I think it’s clear here that each player decides for himself which one is the best for him in the game, but we will try to tell you which ones are the most attractive, which are very pleasant to play, and easier/more accessible to play.

As you know, in our game there are X levels of equipment and at each level there are/are different heroes. In parallel with how bending tanks will be covered, we will also talk about the vehicles that are most popular on the World of Tanks servers. At each level we will highlight 3 cars (there will be exceptions) that stand out the most + a bonus that seems the most fun, as the players call it.
Although there are 10 levels in the game, we will start the review with tanks of the 5th level, since up to this level there are still frivolous vehicles, a sandbox, as most players like to call levels up to the 5th.

Level 5

At level V, there are several contenders for the title of best tank, and they are all Soviet.
Firstly, let's note the most popular for the game, not counting the first levels - this is the Soviet power of the KV-1. All-round armor, versatile guns, and of course, the historical component, gave this tank such a reputation! Every player, especially the older generation, considers it their duty to pump out this car.

Secondly, this is the T-34 - with no less rich history, compared to the KV-1, one of the best tanks of the war, which changed its course. What makes it so popular? Its hole-piercing guns are 57 mm ZiS-4, with high penetration but low damage. The two most popular branches in the game are the Soviet ST and TT, and through them, two great tanks are located at 5 levels: the T-34 and the KV-1.

And the third, only for the elite KV-220. It has excellent all-round armor, which is extremely difficult for level 5 guns to take, and even some sixes feel the problem of penetrating this vehicle, plus its preferential battle level! All this makes this tank a real gem, but it is very difficult to obtain.

The bonus on the 5s is the T67 - an American tank destroyer that does not feel like a tank destroyer. Excellent speed, stealth, high penetration and low silhouette allow you to bend over your classmates, and in battles at the bottom of the list, with the help of gold, not to feel suffering!

Level 6

At level VI, the trio of tanks includes all three STs - one Soviet and two British.
Let's start with a legend that everyone, young and old, knows; almost every city has a monument to this significant T-34-85 tank.
The average USSR is a universal fighter on the battlefield; its excellent weapon with good AP penetration and comfortable gold for combat against 8-kilometers, accuracy and mobility make this tank popular. Of course, we should not forget that this tank is being pumped up because of its huge combat history, and the fact that it comes next after the T-34, but this does not make it any less excellent.


The second is the British Cromwell, a technique for real extras. Unlike the 34-85, the Cromwell does not have armor, but at the same time its maximum speed and cannon, coupled with stealth, allow it to achieve excellent results that will surprise even the driver himself.

And the third, new to World of Tanks - Sherman Firefly. One of the most successful models of British tank building, with the legendary OQF 17-pdr Gun Mk. VII, in which you can fight without gold even at the bottom of the list, even against 8 levels.
The bonus on 6s is the legend of the broads - KV-2. It is both for bending and for fun. His duda 152 mm M-10 with an alpha high explosive of 900 points allows him to fight even with X levels (!!!), where one shot at a Waffenträger auf E 100, or other cardboard machines, can deprive half of the HP.

7th level

Level 7, according to players, is the most balanced, so choosing the top three here is very difficult.
The first, or rather the first ones, are IS/IS-2/IS-2. It is impossible to single out one of these machines, because they are almost identical, so we will add all three units to this list. The IS is the most famous tank, one of the 10 most popular tanks in World of Tanks. Its advantages are the D-25T with alpha from 390, mobility, turret armor. In the TOP, these vehicles do battle, distributing “Soviet henchmen”, and at the bottom of the list we play PT, imagining that you are an SU-122-44, which is also fighting with 9 levels with the same weapon.

The second unit is the German Tiger I. The German TT, which fought in World War II and has a rich history, is implemented superbly in the game. 1500 hit points, 8.8 cm Kw.K gun. 43 L/71 with 203mm breakdown, 240 alpha and with a DPM of 2000 points per minute, which is comfortable, pleasant and interesting to play. At the top of the list, the Tiger is a thunderstorm of enemies, punching through everyone, dismantling anyone with DPM, and at the bottom of the list we play PT, alternating BB with gold.

The third vehicle is the American heavy T29. If the 29 is from the mound, then even the 9th level will not be able to break through it the first time. The tank has strengths, but also has pain points. Its balance and application on the battlefield make it a great machine that you'll want to play again and again.

The bonus is the unit hated by everyone - a flea, a bug, a mosquito, a Gatling gun - this is a German tank destroyer E-25. An inconspicuous cart that causes a lot of problems for opponents, especially blind ones like Soviet TTs. Mosquito bites of 150 points in 3 seconds kill anyone who falls in the sights of this machine. Well, if you end up in an E-shek platoon, if you are in a field without cover and they are targeting you, expect trouble. The enormous popularity of the vehicle contributed to its withdrawal from sale, but there were no fewer of them in battles.

Tier 7 is so diverse that I would like to mention at least five more vehicles - these are the T-34-1, T71, M41 Walker Bulldog, LTTB and Spähpanzer SP I C. We won’t talk about them, we’ll just note that they are also worthy be on this list.

Level 8

We're getting to the top. Level VIII is no longer a sandbox. At these levels there is a global map, fortified areas and company battles.
The first tank at level 8 will be the IS-3. A vehicle that is suitable for all of the above battles, and also fills the random pool. Frontal armor of the hull and turret, the presence of bulwarks, a good gun, mobility and a low silhouette are the key to the success of the vehicle.

The second one is FCM 50t. The vehicle is not for everyone, as the huge hull and lack of armor make playing on the tank very difficult for beginners, but experienced players show excellent results on the tank, setting damage records over and over again. Tanks with a preferential combat level and an excellent 212 penetration gun, so suffering on this vehicle is excluded. An analogue of this car can be offered by another Frenchman - AMX Chasseur de chars. An even less armored vehicle, which bursts from land mines and does not have a preferential level, but has a high camouflage coefficient and the highest maximum speed at level VII among STs due to the Maybach HL 295 F engine of 1200 horsepower.

The third is another Frenchman, also a frequent guest in fortifications, companies and on the main battery - AMX 50100. A machine that can pick up any classmate in one drum and quickly escape from the scene of a crime - that’s its feature. The high penetration and alpha of 300 for each bullet is what sets the drum against all its enemies. But the most difficult thing is to change the CD of the drum at 50 seconds, when it becomes defenseless meat for the enemy. Another weak point is the lack of armor, but this is typical for all vehicles from the French branch.

Bonus for VIII, we note two vehicles - the British tank destroyer Charioteer and the Japanese medium STA 1. Both tanks are secretive samurai who conduct their battle from the shadows, supporting their butting allies. High CTA penetration and the excellent Chariothir 105 mm AT Gun L7 with 268 mm are the swords of these tanks, with which they pierce their opponents, even playing at the bottom of the list.
Another contender is the IS-6. Tanks that have become one of the most popular premium tanks in the game, having the same D-25T tank, armor and preferential combat level.

Level 9

A level 9 imba is considered to be an upgraded VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B, or alpha sneaker, which was brought back to life the last couple of patches ago, increasing the thickness of the armor. Now VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B tanks even X-tier tank destroyers, sometimes even their gold shells. To push the direction, or to restrain it, to be the first at the forefront of the attack - this is the real calling for this tank! Of course, it still has weak sides and enemy artillery, but these are small disadvantages compared to its advantage. Plus, the sneaker is also mobile, considering its weight.

The second copy is the German medium E 50. Another universal fighter who can tank at the right time and go to another part of the map. Having on board a cannon with German precision and high penetration, playing the epis, as it is called, becomes a pleasure. The E 50 can travel with allied STs, or be a second-line tank, moving with allied TTs. Who to be in battle is a choice only for the player, but with huge potential, like on the E 50, you definitely won’t have to suffer.

The third machine is M103. All American TTs are famous for their turret heads, and the 103 is no exception. Tanking even TOP guns with huge penetrations? It's very easy! An American can hold back even against multiple allies, or play cat and mouse with other opponents if the map allows. It is perfectly balanced, so you won't have to suffer on the M103.

The bonus on IX is the Soviet ST T-54. No matter how its turret was nerfed, no matter how its hull armor was changed, the 54 remains an excellent CT, one of the most popular at its level. Speed, mobility, low silhouette and the fact that the tank can forgive due to the armor provided - all this makes the vehicle so popular.

Level 10

The Xth level is the crown of each branch, the result of each nation. Each tank at this level has its own features, its own directions. Each has good characteristics. Of course, there are guns like the Waffenträger auf E 100, which will soon be replaced, or an ART-SAU, which does not allow you to relax normally in battle, as well as the presence of PT 10 with huge broads.
10s are the level of extremes. There are also drum TTs, there are also slow cast-iron walls such as Maus and E-100, and there are also versatile STs. Therefore, each player must choose for himself which tanks are interesting to him and to single out one of the others would not be correct, at least.

So, dear friends. This was only the opinion of one person, and not the crowd, because, as mentioned earlier, it depends on taste and color. But, undoubtedly, those provided in this list can bend, can become the best, but only in the hands of the right player.
And that is all! Go to World of Tanks and choose your own, the best in the game, and prove that it really is the best! Good luck on the battlefields of the World of Tanks!



Before starting the game, each player faces a painful choice: which tank is better to choose? Yes, the choice is not easy, because your victory directly depends on it. To win, you need to choose a good tank. But how to choose it and which tank is the best in the game? Which tank will lead you to victory?

The player is presented with a huge arsenal of military equipment, from which you must find the most suitable one. Tanks vary in size, power, and type, so it’s not so easy to compare them with each other. As they say: “As many people as there are, so many opinions,” so the tank that is the best for one person will not be anything special for another. We will not argue with you; it is, of course, up to you to decide. But still…

Still, we want to introduce you to our ranking of the Top 10 best tanks in World of Tanks. Even though it is difficult for us to compare tanks with each other, because sometimes they are completely different from each other, but still, our rating will be very useful for someone. If you still cannot make a choice in favor of one tank or another, then perhaps you will listen to our advice and make the right choice that will bring you the coveted victory in a tank battle.

10 FV215b (183)

The crown of the British artillery is a deadly weapon in the hands of a skilled player, because 1750 damage from one shell will be enough to destroy any level 9 tank. But the greatest efficiency is achieved exclusively when using gold shells, so people who do not have a couple of farm tanks in their hangar should not recommend this unit.

9 Bat Chatillon 155

Artillery is also in ninth place in the World of Tanks ranking of the best tanks, but it is made in France. Distinctive features from its classmates are high accuracy and speed of aiming, as well as a drum for 4 shells. However, it is worth remembering that when playing the Art Sau, you should constantly change your own deployment so as not to become an easy prey for your opponent, but, fortunately, maneuverability and a powerful engine allow you to do this.

8 T-62A

The best of the Soviet medium tanks in the game allows you to use tactics similar to the tactics of tank battles of the Great Patriotic War. Thanks to your speed and flexibility, you can attack your opponent from cover with lightning speed, spin him around and destroy him. But a head-on collision or stopping for even a couple of seconds will be fatal for you - the tank is extremely poorly armored.

7 KV-1

We placed the best Tier 5 heavy on the seventh line of the ranking of the best WoT tanks because of his ability to literally execute his classmates, most of whom are simply unable to penetrate him. If we talk about vehicles of lower levels, he clicks them like seeds, moreover, he is able to defeat even tanks of levels 6-7, but only with a high-quality position and the support of his allies.

6 Object 268

One of the best anti-tank self-propelled guns in the game. Many consider it unbalanced and constantly demand a deterioration in its characteristics. There is some rationalism in this thought, because inflicting 750 damage per shot, it remains practically invisible, but it is worth remembering that the maneuverability of this unit is practically zero - considering that even a heavy tank can spin it, comments are unnecessary. It is also worth noting the weak armor of the sides and roof, but the frontal sheet is not only extremely dense, but also provides a large number of ricochets.

5 M18 Hellcat

Perhaps every player was “ignited” after this unit appeared literally out of nowhere, and then destroyed your tank in just a few shots. Yes, a vehicle from the list of the most powerful tanks in World of Tanks can cause a lot of trouble, because it is a tank destroyer, which has a rotating turret and excellent maneuverability, which allows it to change its deployment point with lightning speed. Artillery has no chance at all against it, even being at the bottom of the list, the “kitty” creates significant problems for its opponents, playing in the style of a light tank with a high-explosive gun.

4 Waffenträgerauf E 100

We sincerely wanted to avoid metaphors, but it’s impossible to describe this vehicle in any other way: imagine a mixture of a racing car with a turret equipped with a powerful weapon with six charges in the drum, capable of turning any combat unit into ashes (level 10 tanks are no exception). However, a tank tank acquires this appearance only in skillful hands, because it cannot be hidden in the bushes due to its impressive size, and even a third-tier tank can inflict critical damage on it.

3 T57 Heavy Tank

The vehicle, equipped with a drum, was able to climb so high in the ranking - the fastest and most powerful tanks in World of Tanks - only thanks to its own magic tower. Despite the extremely weak armor, shells from enemy vehicles fly off from it like a tennis ball from a wall, only scratching the lining. And add to this a rotating turret, 4 shells that deal a total of 1600 damage, fast aiming, and you obviously don’t want to have such a unit among your opponents.

2 AMX 50 Foch (155)

We declare with confidence that the frontal armor of this tank is almost impossible to penetrate, and in response it fires you 3 shots of 750 damage each from its drum, after which it calmly rolls back into cover, joyfully watching the burnt out hull of your tank. Even inexperienced players can achieve significant success with this unit, but it is worth keeping a distance of 200-300 meters so that attackers cannot target the thin hatch above the gun.

1 KV-1S

In addition to high-quality characteristics and a convenient gaming style, this vehicle receives gold in the rating and the title of the best tank in World of Tanks also because it is extremely fun to drive. Judge for yourself: rational angles of inclination allow you to reflect most projectiles, an excellent engine provides the ability to quickly move around the battlefield, always ending up in the right place, a gun that destroys almost any tank below the sixth level with one shot - is anything else needed for a comfortable game?


The fastest and most powerful tank in World of Tanks | Video


We continue our parade of the best tanks in their damage and class, and in the last, fifth part,

We continue our parade of the best tanks in their damage and in their class, and in the last, fifth part, we will look at light tanks. Let's start the review, of course, with level 1, and end with level 8, respectively.


Who would doubt about the first level? Once upon a time, before the change in the design bureau format, it was irreplaceable, because almost the outcome of the battle depended on it. These were the eyes of the team, and in some cases, an excellent invader, and his crushing machine gun could deliver good module damage and even death to the Nineties, Sotkas and Borschts. Yes, yes and yes again, this is a T1 Cunningham, no MS-1s, no British mediums or French Renaults. Only T1, only hardcore. A machine gun in skillful hands is capable of destroying even some 2nd levels. The dynamics, although not the best, are enough for the first level. We will calmly put the armor on a high shelf to gather dust and not even say a word about it, since talking about armor at level 1 will be ridiculous. We won’t bombard you with lengthy praise of this beauty and just sum it up, let’s say that the tank is universal, playable, and in the right hands it’s even crushing and flexible.


Pros:
- Magnificent 20mm machine gun
- Acceptable dynamics
- Rear position of the tower, which allows us to go around corners and cause damage
- High rate of fire inside the drum

Minuses:
- Long drum reload (about 10 sec)
- Front engine


They talk about this tank... But they don’t say anything. It takes 2-3 battles and is forgotten like an uninteresting dream. But in vain, since the tank is very interesting and can be a pleasure to play on it. The groove is quite versatile, having acceptable dynamics for level 2 and a very good weapon. 37 mm with a penetration of 42 mm, reload time about 2.5 seconds. and mixing in 1.7 seconds, very good performance. The armor resists only some weak machine guns, and occasionally guns with a penetration of 25 mm or more. Our 11 tons are accelerated by a 220-horsepower engine, so we dare not complain about the maximum speed. Finally, let’s say that the tank is very interesting and we advise everyone to play it while going through a branch, or just at their leisure.



Pros:
- Good maneuverability and dynamics
- Frontal armor for level 2 can withstand blows
- Decent visibility (290 m)
- Quick aiming of the gun (1.7 sec)

Minuses:
- Long turn of the tower
- The sides and stern are pretty cardboard


Imba level 3, because there is no other way to say it. An 8mm machine gun can incinerate tanks 1 level higher than us. The armor for level 3 is rather weak, but looking at the maximum speed, we can safely say that armor is not the main thing for it, because the maximum speed is 79 km/h. Not every enemy will be able to hit us, but if they do, then there is a 20-30 percent chance that there will be a ricochet or no penetration. But this is all a matter of chance and only you can decide how the battle will end, but in the end we will say that the tank will bring a lot of pleasure and fun during its passage.



Pros:
- Excellent top speed (79 km/h)
- Crushing machine gun
- Small and compact dimensions
- Good review

Minuses:
- Average armor
- Low armor penetration


Surely you thought that the Chinese would bypass us, but that was not the case. Fast, rapid-fire, with excellent visibility and just a great tank. The M5A1 only causes trouble when leveling it up to the top state, and then we simply move on to the next tank without any sudden movements. The gun has indicators acceptable for level 4: 81 mm of penetration, which is quite good at our level, damage of 70 units with a reload of 2.5 seconds. Stabilization, of course, is rather poor, but in close combat the tank copes with the enemy very quickly. Our armor, as always, is in the style of a light tank, that is, none. Sometimes we can still get a ricochet due to our 45 degrees of armor tilt, but this happens quite rarely. And so we get a very playable and playful tank, which puts it in first place among tier 4 tanks.



Pros:
- Good dynamics
- Good UGN
- Compact size
- Acceptable visibility of 330 m

Minuses:
- Frequent engine crits
- Weak armor on the sides and stern


Little Chaffee deserves the honorary title of the best level 5 LT. It is good, of course, because of its visibility of 390 m and good maneuverability. The gun also does not let us down, because the CD is 2.5 seconds and the damage is 110 with a penetration of 96 mm, it’s like a bee’s sting that bites weakly but often. The cross-country ability and dynamics are generally impressive, as we feel free on different soils. Based on the excellent dynamics and visibility, we get an excellent tank for spotting and in some situations for supporting allies. Passing a tank will not cause you problems and waste of nerve cells.



Pros:
- Excellent dynamics
- Best view on the level
- Excellent stabilization
- Best top speed (77 km/h)

Minuses:
- Lack of armor as such in all projections
- Weak armor penetration


A newcomer, but already gained quite a reputation. The tank does an excellent job of its job, namely, the job of a firefly. And he can shoot too, thanks to a gun with 150 penetration and 115 damage. Reload time is around 3 seconds, and stabilization is at an acceptable level. The maximum speed of the tank is 66 km/h, which is very good for a light tank. The visibility also did not disappoint - 385 m, so it will not be difficult for us to highlight the enemy while being in the bushes, rushing all over the battlefield.



Pros:
- Remarkable speed and maneuverability
- Rapid-fire cannon
- Good review

Minuses:
- Poor armor performance
- Very mediocre body dimensions


A tank that is incredibly popular, a tank that torments its enemies with its drum, a tank that brings a lot of fun and fun. Yes, this is our crazy stool - T71. An excellent drum for 6 shells of 150 units of damage and a penetration of 175. An unsurpassed maximum speed of 64 km/h with a mass of 18 tons. Of course, we will not say anything about the armor, since 25 mm in the forehead, although at an angle, will not give us anything, because we don’t have to fight with levels 8, 9 and 10. The tank is very interesting and will bring you pleasure while passing it.



Pros:
- The presence of a drum for 6 shells
- High maximum speed and agility
- Small sizes
- Great overview

Minuses:
- Poor gun stabilization
- Lowest safety margin at the level


This choice will cause quite a lot of controversy, because at level 8 almost every tank can take first place, but still neither the ninety, nor the T49, nor anything else, namely the unsurpassed RUshka with its magnificent maximum speed of 80 km/ h, an acceptable and universal weapon, a low silhouette and remarkable UGN. And now some numbers: penetration 190 mm, damage 240 units, reduction 2.1 seconds, spread 0.36, and CD about 6 seconds. Quite average indicators, but they are quite enough. Our dynamic indicators are as follows: 80 km/h maximum speed, agility 38 degrees/sec, and acceleration ability at the highest level. Reservations in the light tank genre: 25 mm at the front of the hull and 20 mm around the turret, that is, everyone who hits us penetrates us. But our job, of course, is not tanking, but highlighting opponents and helping our allies. The tank is quite pleasant to play through, but it still requires the ability to play LT, otherwise you will simply fade away on it, never revealing the potential of this tank in battle.



Pros:
- Universal weapon
- Excellent top speed
- View at 400 m
- Low profile

Minuses:
- Quite picky chassis when it comes to soil conditions
- Long projectile flight (unlike single-level LT)

As a result of this article, I would like to say that you should not forget about the main purpose of a light tank, and do not fly to the center of the map at the beginning of the battle for an instant drain. Tactics on LT are much more difficult than on other classes, because you not only shine, but also help your allies by keeping the enemy on the rink or distracting him. A light tank should always bring the team information about the location of the enemy, otherwise the team will simply stand at the base or, having gone in one direction, will lose by capturing its base. Be careful when playing on LT and good luck in your battles!

Despite constant balance changes, World of tanks still has tanks that are more interesting to play on, and which allow you to greater influence the outcome of the battle or even fight for victory, remaining alone against several enemies.

    Of course, fulfilling all the conditions at the same time is impossible; there may be a tank, but it will have too weak weapons, which will not allow it to become the best. However, the presence of several positive qualities will indicate that we have a worthy fighting vehicle.

    So, let's begin our review of the best tanks in WoT.

    The best first level tanks in World of tanks

    Among tanks of the first level it is difficult to select favorites, but at high ranks you can distinguish excellent vehicles such as the IS-3, T-54, T-29 and others, but first things first.

    Among the players in the battles of the first levels, players on vehicles with pumped-up crews who have been playing on tanks of the first level for a long time can stand out; for example, there are quite a few such players on a Soviet tank MS-1.

    The best second tier tanks in World of tanks

    At the second level, anti-tank and artillery self-propelled guns become available to players, and among them there are vehicles that differ from others for the better. This American tank destroyer T-18 with a well-protected forehead, which most second-tier tanks cannot penetrate; in addition, the T-18 has good mobility and a good top-end gun.

    The best tanks of the third level in Wot

    The best tanks of the fourth level in World of tanks

    At the fourth level there are several cars that you will always be glad to see in your team.

    British Matilda tank

    This combat vehicle is protected better than heavy tanks of the fourth level. Being at the top Matilda capable of deciding the outcome of a battle, even remaining against several enemies. Of course, you have to pay for good armor with poor mobility. When getting into battles with opponents of the fifth and sixth levels, Matilda is not so good, but can still be useful due to a good top weapon.

    Hetzer anti-tank self-propelled gun

    The German tank destroyer is a nightmare for many fourth-tier tanks, because they cannot penetrate this vehicle head-on, while the Hetzer easily destroys them with one or two shots. Playing against senior level opponents for armor Self-propelled gun Hetzer you can’t count on it, but this machine will still be able to hit enemies from ambushes.

    The best tanks of the fifth level in World of tanks

    Among the cars of the fifth level we can distinguish Soviet heavy tank KV-1. Which, with proper play, remains impenetrable for many same-level opponents. The poor mobility of the KV-1 tank requires careful selection of the direction of attack, because returning across half the map in order to break the capture will not work. Among the advantages of the KV-1 tank, one can note the availability of several good guns - the rapid-fire Project 413, the universal F-30 85mm, and the high-explosive U-11 122mm.

    American tank destroyer T49

    An anti-tank self-propelled gun with a turret that allows this vehicle to be used, including as a medium or light tank. The T49 self-propelled gun is equipped with an excellent top-end weapon. Good mobility of this T49 tank destroyer sometimes used incorrectly by players, you should not go alone to the enemy base, where the T49 will quickly be destroyed.

    M-24 Chaffee

    American Chaffee tank- an excellent firefly, which can also attack enemies with a good, fast-firing weapon. After the introduction of new light tanks, Chaffee’s top gun was taken away, now this one is not so good, but it doesn’t even reach the tenth levels now.


    The best tanks of the sixth level in World of tanks

    At the sixth level, the KV-1S tank with an excellent D2-5T gun stood out, but it was divided into two combat vehicles - the KV-1 of the fifth level, and the KV-85 of the sixth level, which have not so impressive characteristics. .

    Hellcat in World of tanks

    American Hellcat tank destroyer has excellent dynamics and speed. Its top gun is capable of inflicting 240 units of damage, penetrating 160mm. There is practically no armor on the Helket; it is worth noting only the well-protected gun mantlet, which, together with good vertical aiming angles and a movable turret, allows you to shoot from behind hills and shelters without fear of a retaliatory hit.

    FV304 - new generation self-propelled guns

    On the sixth level, the favorite of many players is also located self-propelled art. FV304 installation With high mobility and a fast-firing gun, this vehicle shows good results.

    T 34-85 in WoT

    According to our readers, the T 34-85 should be included in the list of the best tanks in World of tanks in 2016. Indeed, we undeservedly ignored this combat vehicle. The T 34-85 is a universal fighter, without pronounced weak characteristics and, when used skillfully, can change the outcome of the battle.

    The best tanks of the seventh level in Wot

    There are quite a few good combat vehicles located on the seventh level, but the American T-29 and the German tank destroyer E-25 are worth special mention.

    T-29 - play from the tower

    Tank T-29 if used correctly, it can be considered the best heavy tank of its level. A powerful top-end gun, good elevation angles and a thick turret forehead are the best aspects of the American TT to be used.

    American heavy tank T-29

    • ✔ Good weapon
    • ✔ Thick frontal armor

    The main thing when playing a T-29 is to hide the weakly protected hull, showing only the turret to the enemy. The T-29 performs well in hilly terrain, when shooting from cover, and can compete with Soviet vehicles (which are good in cities) in battles in urban areas. .



    Unavailable E-25

    Premium tank destroyer E-25 has a bonus when balancing teams - it does not fall on level nine tanks. This makes playing on it more comfortable, but it cannot be said that it is unbalanced. The only problem is that the E-25 was removed from sale.

    The best tanks of the eighth level in World of tanks

    At level eight, one of the most dangerous opponents is German tank destroyer Rheinmetall-Borsig Waffenträger. The low silhouette and excellent top and stock guns make this vehicle one of the best in the game. It is worth noting that for a good game on Rhm. Borsig, it is advisable to place it under the control of an experienced crew with good visibility and camouflage; in addition, you need to choose the right position, because weak armor will not leave you a chance if detected. If you think that the main thing in a combat vehicle is the weapon, then Rhm. Borsig for you.

    Armored KV-4 World of tanks

    Our readers consider the KV-4 to be one of the best tier eight tanks. Good armor and a penetrating top gun are excellent qualities for joining the top of the best tanks in WoT.


    Pike nose - IS-3

    Soviet IS-3 may not have any outstanding data, but based on the totality of characteristics it deserves to be noted on this list. Good armor, powerful weapon, good mobility. What else is needed for a good tank? The IS-3 has it all.

    Heavy tank IS-3

    • ✔ Good weapon
    • ✔ Durable armor
    • ✔ Ricochet silhouette

    The best tanks of the ninth level in World of tanks

    Among the machines of the ninth level we can highlight Soviet medium tank T-54, characterized by a low ricochet silhouette, good mobility and a good weapon. T-54 tanks are especially dangerous in a group, so find yourself an assistant in a random battle or play a T-54 in a platoon.

    Medium tank T-54

    • ✔ Good weapon
    • ✔ Ricochet silhouette
    • ✔ Good mobility

    Object 704 - BL-10 carrier

    In addition, I would highlight the Soviet PT-SAU Object 704, equipped with the famous BL-10 gun in the game (several years ago this gun was the most powerful among its analogues on tank destroyers and tanks). Also, Object 704 is well protected from the front; its armor plates are located at rational angles, which gives hope for a ricochet or non-penetration. The combination of these characteristics makes it possible to act on the second line of attack, being in the thick of things.

    Tank ST-1 at the ninth level

    In 2016, our readers consider the Soviet ST-1 to be one of the best at the ninth level. This tank can be equipped with a weapon that is used in WoT on the IS-4. At the ninth level it is very strong, and allows ST-1 to break into the rank of the best.


    There are quite a few good Tier 10 vehicles, these are the American T57 Heavy and T110E5, the Soviet T-62A and Object 263, the German JagdPanzer E100 and Waffentrager E-100, the French Bat Chatillon 25t, and the British FV215B. The style of play on these tanks is different and it is difficult to single out the best vehicle.

    The best tanks in WoT in 2017 - players' opinions

    Many WoT fans named their favorites in the comments. Let's see which tanks we underestimated. Among the best tanks in 2017, players most often named: medium T-34-85 and T-34, heavy ST1, KV2, KV4.


    The mentioned tanks are really very good, the T-34 and T-34-85 are universal fighters that have good mobility and a lethal weapon for the ST. They are capable of providing worthy resistance to any enemy, and in skillful hands they become machines for destruction. These Soviet STs have long been valued by players, but in 2017 the situation has not changed.

    The Soviet KV-2 has a 152 mm caliber gun, unique for a Tier 6 TT, which makes it a very strong opponent, but only with skillful shooting from a large-caliber gun.

    The KV-4 and ST-1 are distinguished by good armor and good armament, which allows them to be included among the best.

    We looked at a lot of tanks, many candidates for the list of the best were suggested by our readers, but not all vehicles in WoT are good, there are others that we identified in.
