Tank description:

The Pz.Kpfw. I Ausf. C is a German tier 3 light tank.The initial order for this tank was placed in 1939. It was originally conceived as a high-speed reconaissance tank for airborne units. Mass production started at the beginning of 1942. In early 1943 two vehicles were deployed with the 1st Tank Division. Another 38 vehicles were deployed with the 58th Reserve Tank Corps in the summer of 1944.The Pz.Kpfw. I Ausf. C, (Or shortly called as "PzIC") became very popular quickly after its release in-game, and with good reason. It is extremely fast (one of the fastest tanks in the game) and highly maneuverable, rivaling even the Soviet now gone T-50-2. It sports sloped 30mm armor on its front and is relatively well-armored for its tier. Lower-tier tanks and machine guns will have difficulty penetrating its armor and an even harder time hitting one at full speed. Its top gun, the 7.92 mm Mauser, is a rapid-firing machine gun that holds 5 8-round bursts in its drum, meaning it fires 40 rapid shots before reloading with a good ~320 damage potential. Despite its relatively low penetration of "only" 33mm, the 7.92 mm gun can easily take out full-health tier 2-3 tanks within seconds with shots to spare. The Pz.Kpfw I Ausf. C also has great gun elevation arc angles which can assist with using cover and firing on the move. The formidable burst damage potential and high maneuverability make this tank one of the best flankers and run-and-gun drive-by vehicles; it''s great for its tier and a fun tank to play. Many high tier players also tend to seal club with this tank because of its ridiculous stats.The Pz.Kpfw. I Ausf. C marks the end of its German light line.
