    The French M4A1 FL10 is one of my favorite premium tanks in War Thunder. It's just a cast hull Sherman with an AMX-13 turret, but its fast reload and hard-hitting rounds make it a lot of fun to use. The lack of a stabilizer isn't great, but it's easy to work around. It's one of the better premiums Gaijin has added.

    Any autoloading tank that allows for quick follow up shots are amazing, especially with all the volumetric BS happening nowadays where your shell can be eaten in its entierety by a coax machine gun and dissapear.

    fun fact i learned a while ago,gaijin has it so bombs that land on buildings (even far away ones at near ground level) seem to do top attack style damage even if it's through other buildings or the one it landed on
    so if you're in the He-111 or Pe-8, drop the bomb on the roof of a building and it will calculate damage through the roof armor instead of the side armor

      Volumetric makes it so that bullshit happens. I’ve had panthers bounce 105s on their unangled sides because it’s hit a part of the model that has pieces that overlap, and gaijin’s half baked code calculates the armor value to an impossibly high value when irl it would go right through. It’s like with the T-34 and tiger’s driver hatch being impenetrable. Gaijin can’t code for shit.

    3:48 Gaijin actually DOES model dual driver controls, but as far as I can remember it's only on a single vehicle (besides the S-Tanks), which is the Pbil m/40. If you hover the cursor over the rear facing driver in the x-ray view, it will say, "Machine gunner; Can drive the vehicle." However, that text doesn't show up on other vehicles with a rear facing driver like the 234 series or the EBR series.

    Sup Spookston. Just want to say that the m4a1 fl10 is rather interesting and i would love to see a very similar vehicle in war thunder which is the m24 fl10, because im pretty sure they made one of those just like its reversed sibling that exists in the game, although the m24 fl10 was only a prototype unlike the amx13-m24.
    Also It would be awsome if you made a video on one of my personal favorites the type 60 sprg. Its quite fun on 6.7 especially because of the double tapping recoiless rifles, awsome mobility and rather goofy looks also the lineup around it being pretty usable. Anyways keep up the good work and im exited to see what we will see next.

Note many late A1 and A2 Sherman’s came with the commanders control electronics due to it being a turret modification.

    Rooikat MTTD please. As far as I can tell they're a pretty rare site, not to mention the Rooikat 105 kinda pushes people away from it with it's better round. HOWEVER, that autoloader is pretty sweet imo. Personally very glad I grinded the MTTD and hope you would enjoy it as well.

    Ackually Spookyston, the swedish Delat Torn is just a 76 sherman but obviously built different. It does everything the sherman can do, but better. And it gets an autoloader so you're obviously gonna pubstomp any lobby you're in.
