This increases considerably the post-penetration damage. But instead of having 74 g TNT for explosive filler inside the shell, it has 164 g. The second round, the BR-365A APHEBC shell, only has 135 mm penetration at close range. It has a very good potential to take out enemies in a single shot with 48 g of A-IX-2 as explosive filler (74 g of TNT equivalent). The stock round is the BR-365K APHE shell which has 148 mm of penetration at close range. The gun depression is like on many other Soviet vehicles quite poor, with only 5° there are no hull-down manoeuvres possible. This might not be enough to fight Tiger IIs frontally, but it works perfectly with other tanks, which are less armoured or you can engage them from the side. The T-34-85 is equipped with the fantastic ZiS-S-53 cannon, with penetrates about 145 mm on the close range with the stock BR-365K round. Suspensions wheels are 20 mm thick and tracks are 18 mm thick.The gun mantlet has 90 mm in front with additional small and thin 40 mm plates on the sides of the gun.Cast homogeneous armour (Turret, Cupola, Driver's hatch, Machine gun port).Rolled homogeneous armour (Hull, Turret roof).Beware when exposing hull when coming out to take a shot on an enemy, someone is bound to be watching for the T-34-85 and they won't be afraid to plant a shell into the 45 mm hull armour. Thus if possible, do not prolong the exposure of the hull armour towards the enemy.Īny enemy vehicle around the T-34-85's BR can destroy it if it can get a solid shot on the hull armour. The front hull armour is only 45 mm thick, even when sloped this is a pitiful amount of armour to fight with against the other vehicles at the same BR as every other tank gun can penetrate that armour. Aside from that, both tanks share the same technical specification. The T-34-85 is an improvement over its predecessor, the T-34-85 (D-5T) with a better armament, a shorter reload time, APCR ammo, and an additional crew member. Though similar to the T-34-85 (D-5T), it has an improved gun and a full crew for combat efficiency. It was introduced during the Closed Beta Test for Ground Forces before Update 1.41.
The T-34-85 is a rank IV Soviet medium tank
