Hello Warriors,

Supertest - CZ Tier 4 - ST Vz.39

Hello Warriors,

The Czech tier 4 ST Vz.39 has arrived to supertest.


Description:

This tank was developed between 1936 and 1937 by ČKD under the designation of V-8-H as a response to the military demand for a new medium tank. A prototype was trialed in 1938 and after successful conclusion of testing, the Czechoslovak army accepted it in service under the designation of ST vz.39 (medium tank, 1939 pattern). The vehicle had superior firepower compared to early model Panzer III and IV and a mass-production was planned but those plans were ended by the occupation - the Germans tested the protototype with good results but the production of Panzer III and IV was already running. An uparmored variant (under the designation of V8H-Sv) was offered to Sweden in 1942 as well but without success.

Ranked Battles

Hello Warriors,

WG uploaded a video about the Ranked Battles:


Same gun name but different stats?

Hello Warriors,

Some of you made a very good question on why the RU 251 and the Kanonenjagdpanzer have the same gun but their statistics are different.


I got on my investigating feet and asked around.
Basically in real life the  RU 251 and Kanonenjagdpanzer have the same gun and same ammo but in-game they have same gun but different ammo (AP).



Also the guns are technically different as its impossible to have the same module available as a standard and premium (research/grind reasons).

Hope this satisfied your curiosity and very good observation as always.
