Tank description:

The Pz.Kpfw. III/IV is a German tier 5 medium tank.A project for the new vehicle with sloped armor plates and components of the Pz.Kpfw. III and Pz.Kpfw. IV was approved on January 4, 1944. In March 1944, a contract for three prototypes was signed, but the program was discontinued on July 12. Only a tank destroyer on a similar base saw mass production.Fast, agile and properly armored, the Pz.Kpfw. III/IV can cover the flanks of heavier tanks, as well as defend terrain from a distance. Its fast speed allows it react to cover critical points of the map and stay ahead ahead of its allies as a spotter. However, it doesn''t pay to go solo, as this tank lacks in alpha damage, so it can''t actually push through the enemy advance: it is best played like a flanker and scout for the bigger guns. On the plus side, your mobility allows you to duck into cover, poke out of it, and finally get around it. This repositioning allows you to dodge fire directed at your weak turret armor, while you shoot at them from behind with your adequately accurate 75mm gun. It is a remarkable defensive vehicle, but due to its offensive weaknesses it can''t be relied upon to win a tier 5 match all by itself.The Pz.Kpfw. III/IV marks the end of its German medium line.
