T57 Tank Heavy, World of Tanks: Review, Guide, Characteristics, Secrets

Every self-respecting player in the World of Tanks sets a goal. Without this, any entertainment becomes inexpressive and boring. Therefore, whether you are a pro-player or just a beginner, you should be aware of exactly what you're driving at and what kind of car you would like to ride at high levels. Today we will consider and compare the tank T57 Heavy and Amx50B.

Modules

The most important thing that a tank commander should know is what equipment is installed on his car. There are many options and spare parts that can be used on each particular model, but only certain modules will be most effective and effective. So, we present you a guide on T57 Heavy.

• Tower. At this place will well stand model T169. It has an overview of up to 400 meters and a relatively high turn speed for a heavy tank. The only minus is armor. Fifty millimeters on the rear side are unacceptably small, since it makes the car vulnerable to medium and some light tanks.
• The 120 mm T179 gun has a high penetration for all types of projectiles. We can say that in the duel of two T57 Heavy they can inflict damage to each other without any problems.
• Engine Continental AV-1790-5C has a capacity of 810 liters. With., Which is very small even for a heavy tank. As a result, his maneuverability and the ability for rapid redeployment suffer.
• Undercarriage T97 coupled with the engine does not allow the tank to accelerate to a decent speed.
• And, finally, the AN / VRC-3 radio station providing communication at a distance of up to 745 meters.

Crew

Continuing our guide on the tank, we got to no less important component of your car. No wonder they say that the war is won not by weapons, but by people. Correctly chosen professions and skills will make T57 Heavy even stronger.

So, the complete crew of this tank consists of four people - the commander, the gunner, the loading and the driver-mechanic. Each of them should learn the skills of repair and disguise. And it will not be superfluous to add "combat brotherhood". Take into account only that this skill works when all crew members have fully studied it, and do not dock with the skill of "fighting friends".

The remaining two seats for each crew member should be occupied with the most profitable skills.

• The commander should know "radio interception" and "sixth sense". This will detect the enemy is still on the way, if you took a convenient place to protect.
• The gunner simply must have the skills of "smooth turn of the tower" and "sniper". They will increase your chances of hitting the opponent and his modules.
• The driver mechanic is responsible for the movement of the machine. Due to low maneuverability and engine power, you will need the "off-road king" talent, and to make shooting easier when moving - "smooth running".
• The charging choice is not special. "Contactless combat" will reduce the likelihood of undermining ammunition, and "desperate" will increase the speed of recharging with a drop in strength to a critical level.

Probably, our review of tanks in the World of tanks has already borne fruit, and you have learned a lot of useful information. But that's not all. Next, we'll look at the equipment that should be taken with us into battle.

Equipment

In addition to basic spare parts and human resources, you can strengthen your machine in other ways. For example, buying before the fight consumables. What to put on T57 Heavy? Equipment should be selected carefully, with an eye for future tactics.

• In any case, you will need a "stabilizer of vertical guidance" and "reinforced aiming drives." Both of these items will provide greater accuracy when firing from a stationary position.
• The third place is suitable either for "improved ventilation" to improve the efficiency of the crew, or "enlightened optics" to increase the viewing radius. Decide for yourself what you need.
• First aid kit and repair kit are required.
• Depending on what you took the third skill, you can choose either a "cola box" for improving skills, or "manual extinguisher" with "ventilation".
• The last item is ammunition. Remember: the overwhelming amount should be armor-piercing. ACS and light tanks are quietly destroyed with 1-2 shots, and in the team you are not alone. Therefore, you can use the layout of 28-8-0 or 20-16-0.

Match

So, you "bought, shod and dressed" the car, as our guide on the tank tells. If you think that no one is your enemy now, you are deeply mistaken. Much will depend on your personal skills and the "sense of battle." But even with 100% skill there are several tips for handling this tank.

• You are not a storm trooper. Go ahead, divert attention to yourself and take the first blow - it's not about you. Despite the fact that you are a heavy tank, low rates of armor will not allow to collide with the enemy forehead.
• In an open area you will be an excellent target. Even without taking into account the automatic control system, the low index of airborne armor will not protect against getting into the combat package.
• Assault from the rear. If you plan to quickly pass through the city and enter the enemy behind, in 70% of cases, the undertaking will turn into a failure. The T57 Heavy has too low maneuverability and speed for this.

But, what to do then, will the player ask how to play T57 Heavy? You are a "creeping tiger, a hiding dragon" in one person. No, you are not destined for the fate of PT and hide and seek in the bushes. But also to climb ahead, it is not necessary.

• Put forward light tanks backlight.
• Heavy tanks with an increased index of armor let them tie the fight.
• Your task - slowly bypassing the enemy, go to them in the side and finish off.
• The quick-firing clip will allow to take out several opponents at a time. But do not move far from your allies. During recharging, you will be very vulnerable.
• Do not get involved in close combat. You have a high enough accuracy to shoot at an increased distance.

Advantages

Continuing the review of tanks in the World of tanks, it's time to draw some general conclusions. Based on them, you can think over your own tactics of fighting and try to follow it.

• One recharge is enough to allow you to deal up to 1600 damage.
• Armor is installed at an ideal angle, which increases the chance of rebound.
• Good angle of fire.
• Quick recharge.
• High rates of penetration of armor.

disadvantages

• Low rates of own armor.
• Low speed.
• Small ammunition.
• Low efficiency in a solo game.
• It takes a long time.
• It often blows up the ammunition.

Comparison

One of the many issues of concern to players getting to level 10 is to choose the technology to ride. So with our tank. One of the compromises for which an experienced "tanker" is ready to go is a choice that is better: T57 Heavy or AMX50B.

We will not give a complete description of this model of the tank, but simply provide a brief comparison of this technique.

• The French tank has smaller armor values both on the turret and on the hull. In addition, it has a smaller margin of safety.
• At the same time, it makes it a little easier, so its maximum speed is almost twice as high.
• As for weapons, the level of penetration of armor and damage are approximately the same. But while the "Frenchman" loses in the rate of fire due to a long recharge of the clip.

As a result, we can say that the French tank AMX is more suitable for sudden rear attacks and maneuvers. While the "American" is intended for attacks from afar. What is more suitable for your style of play, it's up to you and only to you.

Summary

The T57 Heavy is a real killing machine. High rate of fire and good for a heavy tank speed are well suited for fighting in the city or protecting the selected area. The player who chose this tank as the main one should be prepared to put the fate of the match on his shoulders. After all, it is in the late stage of the game that he is able to quickly and effectively remove the "underfed" enemy from the field.

Unfortunately, this machine is not suitable for single player. You can not "pull out" the team if it is quickly destroyed. Therefore, for those wishing to decide the outcome in battle alone, it will be better to find another tank for yourself. For those who prefer to play in a team, this "apparatus" will become a real find. After all, a high level of penetration and damage (almost the biggest among the tanks of this level) will allow you not only to help the allies getting into the shoot-out, but also to tip the scales in your favor.
