T40

125 000

Crew:

Commander (Radio Operator)
Driver
Gunner
Loader
Loader

Advantages:

Very wide gun arc, and relatively short height
The gun is mounted at the very top of the hull, allowing you to hull down effectively
Effective when on the defence, good at sniping
Able to mount both the Tier 6 76mm M1A1 and the 105mm M3 howitzer guns, both of which are very good
Easy grind to top guns

Disadvantages:

Mediocre top speed and maneuverability
Large silhouette, plus open top body which makes it prone to crew and module damage from artillery shells
Frontal armour is not thick enough to protect from most AP shells
105 mm Howitzer has poor splash radius (hits on an enemy gun or gun mantle often fail to do any damage other than to the gun)
Extremely poor gun depression (from -1 to -3.5 degrees) on all guns except 76mm M1A1

Tank description:

The T40 is an American tier 4 tank destroyer.Experimental tank destroyer developed on the basis of the M3 tank in the spring of 1942. The vehicle never entered mass production, nor saw service.The T40 is basically a M3 Lee without its small turret and roof armor, but with better guns, camouflage values, and a more ideal placed gun mount. The Hetzer is a better brawler and ambush tank, while the SU-85B is a better sniper. However, the T40 is very versatile and easy to play. It can fight at any range as long as you know how to avoid getting hit. Its top gun is excellent for tier 4 and is arguably the best mid-ranged weapon of any tank at its tier. With the 9.6 update the tank lost 90 metres of view range, dropping from 400m to 310m.The T40 marks the end of its American tank destroyer line.
