Briefly about the advantages and disadvantages, who will suit this machine and how relevant it is for a random house.
Hello tankers! With you Wotpack and the fourteenth lot Holiday calendar in World of Tanks. On this day, the developers rolled out the Swedish tank destroyer Strv S1, which is already always in stock in the premium store, but now it is on sale at a 15% discount.
TTX Strv S1
But here the display is not entirely correct and is already indicated in the siege mode, when switching to which the accuracy and aiming time are significantly improved. And in marching mode, we do not recommend firing unless absolutely necessary (unless point-blank to rush a weakly armored enemy).
Firepower
Here are four key advantages of the tool:
- High armor hit. The base 288mm sub-caliber pierces most of the enemies that stand in your way. If this is not enough against some "tens", then the 330 mm gold projectile removes all questions.
- Superior accuracy. Aiming turrets and other vulnerable areas is very easy if there is no set-up from the VBR and your hands are not shaking.
- Fast mixing time. Switching to a new target will not be a problem.
- High projectile speed. Sub-calibers fly very fast, which allows you to accurately take lead even the fastest tanks.
The main nuance - all strengths of firepower are revealed only in siege mode. But its plus is that you can combine a camouflage net and a stereo tube, the effect of them is not lost if you turn on the spot, which, with an advantageous position, allows you to control a large area.
Vitality
The margin of safety is minimal, but the VLD is at an excellent angle of inclination, and 3 gauge rule owners of 90 mm guns and below will not be able to penetrate, there will be a rebound. So at the top of the list sometimes forgives mistakes. This is a key advantage over the pumped UDES03, absolutely everything penetrates it.
Mobility and intelligence
In travel mode Strv S1 can quickly occupy key positions and generally move quickly across the battlefield. But when switching to siege, it practically does not move from its place, so do not even try to go somewhere in it, at most, roll back from the line of fire after light, if you need to drive no more than 3-4 meters.
One of the main features - excellent disguise. On open maps in the bushes it feels great, it is very difficult to light it up. At the same time, with normal allies who do not cling to the base, it can provide reliable fire support.
Results
Strv S1 At first glance, it seems like literally the perfect technique for farming. Of course, high armor penetration captivates and the technique is really less gold-dependent than many classmates. However, do not forget that sub-calibers lose in breakdown with distance, and this machine is played only at a long (sometimes medium) distance.
The second nuance is hydropneumatic suspension. This is both a plus and at the same time a hassle, since after the light you can get several penetrations while you roll back from the line of fire or change the mode. Moreover, for firing it is necessary to switch to siege, and this is another loss of 2 seconds.
That is why Strv S1 narrowly targeted tank destroyerwhose potential is not always realized. If the opponents do not go to your flank, they were left without damage. If the team quickly pierced the flank, again, they were left without shooting damage. If you are not lucky with the city map, then it will be difficult to realize the fire potential. We got 2-3 penetrations after the first light - the next detection will most likely be the last for you, since you will not have time to leave.
Verdict — you can get it at a discount, if you are ready for an unstable game due to the disadvantages listed above. A good simulator for the crew of pumped Swedish tank destroyers.
