On October 8, 2018, a new German premium tank destroyer called "Kanonenjagdpanzer 105" appeared in the game. The anti-tank launcher has unique characteristics, and many players foreshadow a decent game for it.
Technical specifications
On board the tank is a crew of 4 people:Firepower:
105 mm gun with high accuracy and fast aiming, allows you to deal damage at the longest distances.
Dynamics:
This is the main difference between tank destroyers and classmates. The specific power of the tank is 19.22 hp/t. The maximum speed is higher than many light tanks, so getting into position at the beginning of the game is not difficult.
Viewing range:
The visibility of the Kanonenjagdpanzer 105 is very poor, so the effectiveness of the vehicle will depend on the actions of the allies.
Vitality:
The PT has rather low durability and no armor at all, but excellent concealment with a coefficient of 23.6 when stationary and 14.14 when moving, allows you to deal damage without light.
How to play
Before you buy Kanonenjagdpanzer 105, you need to familiarize yourself with its performance characteristics. This PT belongs to the "bush" class, so the gameplay on it is not suitable for every player. It is also worth noting the good and bad features of the tank. The low profile allows you to hide from the enemy in the grass and trees, but at the first light, it will take all the projectiles that fall into it. Fortunately, high acceleration and maximum speed allow you to hide from the field of view of enemies in a matter of seconds.
A view of 360 m does not allow active light, so you should take a place where active firefights are taking place. Left alone with an opponent, it will be very difficult for the player to survive.
City maps for PT are the most inconvenient, since there is nowhere to hide your silhouette. In the city, it is recommended to take distant positions to support the allies with a powerful weapon, while not falling into their circle of vision.
Large, spacious maps are heaven for the Kanonenjagdpanzer 105. A super-precise gun with 268 mm armor penetration allows you to deal damage at long distances.
Crew training
All crew members have their own unique abilities. They can be pumped at your discretion, however, to achieve the best result, it is necessary to pump the following skills by increasing perks:
1 perk:
- commander - "sixth sense";
- driver - disguise;
- gunner - disguise;
- loader - disguise.
2 perk:
- commander - "combat brotherhood";
- driver-mechanic - "combat brotherhood";
- gunner - "combat brotherhood";
- loader - "combat brotherhood".
3 perk:
- commander - radio interception;
- driver - repair;
- gunner - "sniper";
- charging - repair.
4 perk:
- commander - "eagle eye";
- driver - "king off-road";
- gunner - repair;
- loader - non-contact ammo rack.
The rest of the crew can learn skills at their own discretion.
If you follow the above crew training tips, the tank destroyer will be the most effective in combat, because with good camouflage it will not glow when fired. Radio interception and eagle eye will help to shine the equipment as much as possible, repairs will help to quickly restore damaged modules and tracks, and brotherhood in arms will increase the effect of all skills by 5%.
Equipment and equipment
Since the tank destroyer is in a stationary state for most of the battle, the most suitable equipment would be:
- rammer;
- camouflage net;
- stereoscopic telescope.
The rammer will allow you to reload faster, the camouflage net, in combination with the trained crew skill "camouflage", will significantly increase the stealth coefficient in battle, and the stereo tube will allow you to illuminate the enemy at a distance of more than 430 m.
Other equipment will be less practical and efficient, but each player can use it as they see fit.
As for the equipment, here, too, everything is installed by the standard method. Since we are talking about premium vehicles, it is not recommended to install “gold consumables”, since they will take away the earned silver, with the exception of an automatic fire extinguisher. This gear costs 20000 silver, but only triggers when the tank's engine catches fire, so deductions will rarely occur.
Owner feedback
The new owners of the Kanonenjagdpanzer 105 share the following characteristics:
Advantages | Disadvantages |
high camouflage performance | low average damage per minute |
high armor penetration | lack of armor |
precision instrument | frequent damage to modules |
good dynamics | low resistance to high-explosive projectiles |
high top speed | small viewing radius |
This tank destroyer is often compared to the Swedish Strv S1 as they have similar gameplay. But they have some differences. When retreating, the Swedish tank needs to get out of the siege mode, without which it becomes practically incapacitated. The German, with his dynamics, is able to quickly turn around and shoot in advance.
Read on:As a result, the tank destroyer Kanonenjagdpanzer 105 has a lot of advantages. If you study all the features of the tank and use its firepower for its intended purpose, a stable income is guaranteed.
I bought it, played it and became stupid - shells of 1200 silver each and as a result - 3 hits without damage (magic crits from VG - on the sides and light tanks) 2 penetrations - in general, the result - defeat and minus 1000 silver per battle. The profitability of the premium tank lvl 8 just rolls over = expensive to maintain in battle
