"T-43". World of Tanks: "T-43", reviews. «Т-43»: photo

Let's begin the review of the tank "T-43" of the middle class with a small general characteristics. In general, this type of equipment has a good margin of safety, good maneuverability, but a small thickness of armor. In the World of Tanks in the branch of the USSR it is after "T-34-85". From the latter, the tool is borrowed. In the World of Tanks, the T-43 is at the 7th level of the branch. It does not have the same speed as the T-20, and also does not have a gun like the Panther, and armor like the VK3002DB. About this - further detail.

A bit of history

Tank "T-43" was designed by the design bureau of plant No. 183 in 1942. The basic basis was taken by the T-34 with the use of its structural elements. In this case, a certain improvement was made, as the "T-34" hull was completely redesigned and a more compact arrangement of all available mechanisms and units was implemented. As a result, the protection of the tank was substantially increased (armor frontal - 75 mm). This significantly increased the survival rate of the model under development in combat conditions. In the period from 19.08.1943 to 05.09.1943, entering into the "Special Tank Company No. 100", two prototypes "T-43" were tested. This is a reliable fact. During the fighting, according to the tanks, from 1 to 11 enemy hits were carried out, but their armor was not penetrated. As a result, none of these samples was lost. After that, it was recommended to adopt the T-43 tank. However, all the same, its serial production was not carried out. All the plants were concentrated on the production of other machines. The sample in question is not very strong in terms of armor and tools, but some of its parts have been used in other developments. For example, the chassis of this tank was installed on a more reliable "T-44". Of course, the model under consideration was given attention, but not very much.

Combat effectiveness

"T-43", reviews of which are of various types, does not have the necessary speed and maneuverability for a medium-class tank. And the presence of non-rational corners of the frontal armor together with its thickness, which is not sufficient, does not provide adequate protection. As a result, the best option would be to fight at a long distance, not allowing the enemy to approach. Therefore, the effectiveness of the tank is in the quality of defense or in supporting the offensive. As a result, the "T-43" should not "protrude" in the first rows of the attack. Also low driving performance adversely affects the ability to "pokaserelit" or "spin" heavy tanks. Single combat on the "T-43" is ineffective. Therefore, it is necessary to try to act as part of a group of allies. This will ensure the greatest benefit to the team. Like all tanks, the "forty-third" possesses unique vulnerabilities. In this case, the damage to the fuel tank is quite frequent, and also often the bombing takes place, which occupies the rear of the tower.

pros

• Good speed.
• The presence of two alternative top guns.
• Not bad UHV (angles of vertical aiming).

Minuses

• The difficulty of using armor: the T-43 models have the ability to deal damage to all tanks from level 5 onwards.
• Weak dynamics: the maximum speed of 55 km / h you can develop except from different descents.

Crew T-43 ("World of tanks")

It consists of four people.

• Commander. Affects the review of the tank, as well as the efficiency of the entire crew.
• Gunner. Provides the speed of the reduction of the gun and the speed of rotation of the turret.
• Driver mechanic. Affects the speed of movement and the speed of rotation of the tank.
• Charging. Provides speed recharge gun.

On the skills of the crew

The first skill should be selected for all "Repair". But if you want to improve the effectiveness of the battle, then carry out the following actions.

• For the commander it is necessary to conduct training "Eagle Eye" and "Sixth Sense". The latter allows you to warn you about the discovery of a tank, which is not unimportant. This gives a chance to hide from a possible enemy fire.
• For the gunner to carry out training "Smooth turning of the tower." This allows you to reduce the spread of the gun.
• For the driver-mechanic, you should choose "Virtuoso" and "Off-road King". This will make it possible to move faster and more efficiently along different soils.
• Charging it is recommended to train "Radio interception" and "Noncontact combat laying". This will bring significant benefits. The latter reduces the probability of a bombing explosion.
• Then you can take "Combat Brotherhood". Or take it first, and then - all of the above.

The best option is to use the crew with "T-34-85". As a result, when you open the 43rd, you are likely to have already learned the 1st skill and a little bit - the 2nd one. Retraining the crew is best for loans or gold. Further the crew does not change. Thus, you can transfer the crew to "T-44", and then - to "T-54".

Modules of the T-43 tank in the World of Tanks

• First we open the chassis for further research.
• Then the tower. It will add to the strength and review of the tank.
• The gun is set to 100 mm "D-10T". This is an effective tool for this level.
• And then put the radio and the engine.

Research and pumping

As it was said before, it's better to open the chassis first, because you can not install other elements without it. Then - the tower, it will increase strength and visibility. Then we install the "D-10T" or "D-5T-85BM" already open from "T-34-85". These tools will speed up the recruitment of your experience. Next, we put the radio and the engine.

Another variant of development - after the acquisition of caterpillars, take "U-11". Thus, it will be easier for you to collect experience on the engine. Therefore, we set it after this. After all, for effective combat, mobility is very necessary! After that, open the tower and put - 85 mm "D-5T-85BM" with good accuracy or more powerful - 100 mm "D-10T".

The secrets of the battle tactics on this model

In battles with different types of tanks, you must adhere to certain rules. They are as follows:

• Against light tanks. This class of equipment is often found in the form of so-called "fireflies". The most important thing is to keep them out of the allied artillery and shoot them exactly. Especially if these tanks are in motion, then it is problematic to get to them. Basically, you will need to shoot this tank for anticipation. That is, it is necessary to aim half a body ahead to get there.
• Against medium tanks. CT will be especially important for you, as you will meet them more often. Do not let them get close. Target the weak spots. If all is unsuccessful, then the correct solution will be to shoot down the caterpillars. Then the allies will help you. We must at least not let the enemy move forward.
• Against heavy tanks. In this case, I'll have to try. Do not try to fight them in the frontal, because, most likely, it will not work, and you will go to the hangar. It will be problematic to swing them to you, and not all will be able to break through. So it is necessary to beat them in vulnerable places (hatches, sight devices, etc.).
• Against PT-ACS. To combat them, the "Carousel" tactic is best suited, since many PTs have a limited angle of horizontal guidance. The most correct thing is to knock down the caterpillar, and then go round to the rear or from the side.
• Against art-self-propelled guns. This is also one of the important goals in destroying the enemy's firepower. So do not miss the chance and "disassemble" the art. Well, or at least highlight the union.

Reservation

In this case, it's a weakness. The most armored part of the "T-43" is the joint of the upper and lower armored sheet, there is 110 mm of thickness. The top part has 75 mm, and the mask - 90 mm. In general, the armor should not be counted. Unless, thanks to the upper part, at an angle there is a chance that you will get a rebound. And in other cases, the tank "T-43", reviews about which are different, will punch everything, even tanks of level 5 and above.

Disguise

It is necessary to investigate it first. Without this skill, a certain probability appears much faster to be detected by opponents. As a result, enemy tanks will open fire on you, as a result of which it will not be a problem to destroy the T-43. Therefore, no one else hindered additional secrecy. Also, you can apply tactics that are similar to PT-ACS, namely - "sit down" in the bushes and shoot back.

Repairs

This skill is important for medium tanks. With it, the recovery of damaged modules will be greatly accelerated. This is especially important if the caterpillar is knocked down. For a more noticeable repair effect, it is recommended that this skill be taught to all crew members.

Equipment

• Fan - increases the overall skills of the crew.
• In the presence of enhanced targeting drives, the tool's speed of notice will increase noticeably. This will allow less time to heal the enemy's vulnerable points.
• The presence of medium caliber gunner reduces the recharge time and increases the rate of fire of the gun. Consequently, this increases the possibility of causing significant damage to the enemy.

Equipment

• Fire extinguisher - for quick extinguishing.
• First aid kit - for the early recovery of crew members who are disabled.
• Ammunition. It is better to load in the ratio of armor piercing and landmines: 2/1.
• Repair kit - to restore the modules of the tank, disabled.

Tip

In the World of Tanks on the "T-43" there is no need to get ahead. This is not a good style for this tank. It is necessary to find more acceptable moments for the conduct of the battle. Also, do not shoot on strands. Do this only if necessary. The main objective are STs with weak armor. For example, "T-54" and "E-50" can be destroyed by hitting inboard or on NLD. Also, remember that the "T-43" is contra-indicated to fight with "IS-4", "E-75" and "Mouse", as it will not be able to break even into the rear.

Mismatched prototype

To some extent, the model of the tank in the game does not correspond to the real one.

• In reality, only the 76 mm F-34M gun was calculated on the T-43.
• The weight of the tank was 34.1 tons.
• Engine "V-2-44" on the "T-43" was not installed.

The result

In general, with certain game skills, this tank is not bad in use, especially if you put the right weapon on it:

• "Wet ammunition."
• "Vertical stabilizer stabilizer Mk 1".
• "Medium-caliber medium-caliber medium-sender."

All of the above will tell you exactly how to play "T-43" in World of Tanks.
