Courtesy of Applesaucebandit (US server), thank you. LTP will most likely be some kind of lowtier reward tank (possibly for WG’s birthday?), so the stats aren’t exactly groundbreaking:
Speed: 45.1 forward 18 reverse
Armor (hull): 30 front (including the driver hatch), 15 upper side, 20 lower side, 10 tracks, 30 rear
Armor (Turret): 30 all around
HP: 230
Hull traverse: 52
Cannot turn in place
Radio range: 360m
View range: 310m
Engine power: 170
Fire risk: 20%
Ground resistance (best to worst terrain): 1.2 1.3 2.3
Weight: 10.8t
Load limit: 13t
Gun: 45mm 20KL
Depression/elevation: -8°/+20°
Dispersion from hull/turret/shooting: 0.26 0.16 3.5
Ammo capacity: 150
Aim time: 2.1
Reload: 25 rpm (2.4 seconds)
Turret traverse: 36
stats look better than T1E6
For a tier 3 tank …
Well,it isn’t that bad…
LTP? A Learn To Play tank? nice :P
would be epic as a reward for completing the tutorial :D
Totally agree :D
+1
Better than T1E6 cause it’s tier III not II. Looks like T-127 but worse, only speed slightly better but worse HP/tone ratio, reload, armour, view range, Hit Points, turret traverse, even fire risk ;) . I hope it’ll have the same MM as T-127.
If it is a giveaway tank, any guesses on when it will be gifted?
Presumably, it won’t be given away to EU players?
it is a present for the 15th anniversary
Even if it will be bad premium – free garage slot :D
I know, rite?
You said it best !
when does wg have its birthday?
It seems like a very nimble tank to me. A bad HP/tonne though, but very good traverse speed. I like that.
Now I think we have something to store in our garages. ;D
So compared to the T-127…
General:
- Smaller profile (should mean better camo, if nothing else it’ll be harder to shoot at)
- Less health
- Less view range
- Better radio range
- ~2 tons lighter (don’t ram anything)
Armor:
- Frontal armor is basically the same (ignoring the upper hull where nobody ever shoots anyway)
- Lower glacis is tiny
- Turret front armor is weaker in every regard, but the turret itself is a smaller target, and there’s less flat/non-mantlet area to shoot frontally
- Tracks are thinner and cover less area
Gun:
- Same depression
- Less elevation
- Turret traverse is slower
- Reload speed is slightly slower
- (I would guess) slightly better accuracy
- Higher ammo capacity (because 100 rounds just isn’t enough?)
- Slightly more dispersion from moving the hull
- Much less dispersion from moving the turret
Mobility:
- ~5 hp/t less
- Much better traverse (52 d/s is absurdly good, should bleed little speed if any while maneuvering)
- Higher speed limit (though whether it can reach it on the flat is to be seen)
- Lower ground resistances in all terrain types
Summary:
It’s a smaller, quicker (once it gets going), more nimble T-127. It looks to me like it’s meant to be more a hull-down sniper, taking advantage of its little turret and decent gun depression.
Probably not going to be nearly as good as the T-127 at brawling due to its lower fire rate, worse power:weight, and weaker armor.
Based on what I’ve read here, I’ll probably keep it. It’s likely not going to be able to bully people like the T-127 can, but it compares decently enough.
And hey, it’s free, and leagues better in its tier than the pile of crap that was the T1E6. I appreciate gifts, and generally try my utmost to keep and use them, but…that thing got sold within the week to free the slot, it was so bad. I can see the LTP sticking around, at least for a bit.
Don’t diss the T1E6 “Cowboy”, it’s a hilarious little trashbin. The main problems it has are really A) T18 EVERYWHERE B) Province *again*?
Also it’s kinda cute, just like the T-127 and this guy. Who’s a widdle liddle tank?
Any info about crew ? (Count, specialization ect.)
I am interested in this as well – crew count and composition. I hope it has similar layout to T-127 or BT-7 so it can train Commander + Gunner + Driver kind of crew.
The turret seems to small and narrow compared to the driver’s hatch that I’m starting to worry this thing might actually be a two-man job… :/
*so
Bugger, now all it needs is a proper tier 3 MM (tier 3-5 battles) and it’s dead on arrival :-(
Still hoping for 3 man crew, BT series have relatively small turret as well (and Commander surely can’t be sitting in the ammo compartment).
If I remember correctly, It has a commander who does all of the gun stuff, and then a driver and radioman in the hull.
I just double checked and I was wrong. The crew has a commander/gunner/radioman, a driver, and a loader.
Ah, so a bog-standard Soviet pre-war infantry tank concept. And here I thought Pasholok and co. would dig up something more interesting.
Well, it is propably 15th anniversary gift, so what could we expect ;) You think they could give us something higher than T3 ? It is WG mate …
this tank is better than locust!
Today first battle ı was kill 3 tank , next battle 4 kill and last battle 5 kill i like this tank :D
