Japanese prem food is an onigiri, not sushi.

Yep. With the hydraulic suspension (http://ftr.wot-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/7.jpg) it looks to be about -15 or so. With that in mind I think -10 is a perfectly acceptable number, and it also fits with the rest of the Japanese mediums. Personally I am looking forward a proper hull down tank at tier ten, as I think anything less than -10 is (quite honestly) less than adequate for the hull down play style. But that’s just my opinion.

yes, the accuracy is similar to “121″ – some Sushi instead of Extinguishers will help here.. i just hope the turret will have some good bounce potential (with its shape the autobounce angle can achieved rather quick) and the armor model on it will not be screwed

With a HP/ton Ratio of over 20 it will be really mobile (like FV4202) and can work out the terrain quite good i guess

I really wonder what the Soft-Stats will bring (hoping for a good Gun Dispersion on the move – and allows it to hit without having a full-Stop to hit anything) – and the Ground Resistance, but i see that it has the same Tracks and it’s lighter than Leo1 (with more Armor – leads me to the conclusion that this STB-1 will be a rather tiny Tank, like Obj140 or so)

Well, you cant be standing there and thinking you can put out that dpm – the armor of this tank is just preventing the vehicle to fall apart when firing…

Well even IndienPanzer has also 8 rpm (90mm) – with much better armor imho – nothing impressive…

Hmm – Tier 8 and 8 seem to have utter Garbage Armor, do i see that right? I think rather nimble but not high Top Speed. I don’t like the look of the sub-T8 Tanks (look like disguised Tractors) – the STB-1 is the Baby to have… i will go for it.. gogo-O-Gadget-Free-XP :P

Would be a lot better to leave it as a tier 10 super Leopard PTA.

WTF? Did they remove the breech block? Maybe WG also shaved off some (most) of the barrel?

While this does make the STB-1 a lot more viable, the reality hacking is seriously disappointing.

Yeah, the non-autoloader will be better. The autoloader, including the time between the shots, will take 13 seconds. The non-autoloader has a reload time of 3.6 seconds. So, if they are both firing every time they can, the autoloader will have its next shells available in 13 seconds, while the non-autoloader will have its 4th shell available in 10.8 seconds.
