    Of all the tanks added to War Thunder somewhat recently, the Russian PT-76-57 (also known as PT-76E) is definitely one of the most overpowered. The PT-76-57 pairs a stabilized 57mm autocannon to the PT-76 chassis, while also upgrading the engine and providing it with a laser rangefinder. At a battle rating of 7.7, the PT-76-57 mostly fights vehicles that don't have a stabilizer at all. So even if the PT can't get flank a vehicle and comfortably destroy it in one shot to the side, it can still break the target's barrel before it can react. Gaijin did raise its battle rating, but 7.7 is still not high enough.

    2. 57 MM autocannon
    3. Fully stabilized gun
    Cons :
    1. No thermal sight

    I am legit more afraid of this thing than any comteporarily-tiered tank I can think of myself - I play the Centurion variants pretty regularly and while they're all good tanks themselves, I know if I don't have my gun loaded and pointing directly at a PT-76-57 the moment it appears, I'm getting five 57mm APHE shells through my hull / gun barrel / in my cupola, it's terrifying
    Even driving the Chieftain variants and seeing someone bring this thing in as a backup is horrible - the Chieftain has a paper hull so it's never a surprise to get clapped when you're exposed in it, but when you're hull-down, angled backward, doing everything perfectly and an extremely hard kill for any other MBT, and one of these things rolls up, blasts your barrel to pieces, and then forces a billion rounds through the turret ring / gunner's sight slot / coaxial machinegun / cupola + commander's face, it just absolutely sucks

      I agree 100% with this. It was the same deal with the Puma as well. Honestly my biggest gripe with these light tanks is that they manage to consistently survive hits that absolutely should total the vehicle. If they survive a shot they will look directly at you and chip you down like a pest. I play britain as well and grinding 7.3 - 8.3 for the last few months and facing these two things along with begleits and bmp 2m's was torture.

With the addition of the Puma and PT-76-57 and the buffs on the Begleit and BMP-2M, the CV9040s does not feel that amazing to play anymore, since you have better IFVs/Light tanks options at lower BRs, with better mobility, armaments and even armor than you.

      The Puma alone is already way, way better than the Strf 9040C, and sits at 9.3 while the 9040 is at 10.0. Puma have better armor and survivability, better mobility, better gunhandling and doesn't have a ready-rack ammo.
      Yea sure the swedish 40mm cannon does a lot of damage, but c'mon, 24 shells in the ready-rack? The Begleit have an almost half-bigger cannon (57mm) with the double of ammo inside the ready-rack, have ATGMs, better gun handling and better mobility. Also sits at 9.3.
      BMP-2M have ridiculously broken ATGMs, 4 that can be shot on the move at the same time, and also have better gun handling and better mobility. And ALSO sits at 9.3, together with the Begleit and Puma.
      Like, what? Why the CV90s have to be at a higher BR while being marginally worse?

Meanwhile, at that BR it's mostly facing tanks with a stereo rangefinder and pretty much no advantage over the PT-76-57.

    • @thecloner212
      @thecloner212 2 роки тому

      It's kinda indescribably both far better and worse than back then, on average it gets stomped quite fast, often without even a single kill, because of all the nerfs it has had since its introduction, the very poor survivability , the below average gun laying on the vertical, and poor penetration with loss of its apds belt so you will struggle to fight opponents to get kills if you play it like a normal tank, most games on it will be below average if you are an average player.
      In good hands however, with someone able to exploit the advantages the cannon, speed and turret traverse this thing offers, it is TOO good, my most recent nuke game was with the zsu-57, I got it less than 5 minutes into the game by just outgunning the entire team coming out of their spawn on single "C" cap El Alamein because almost their entire team was fast light tanks rushing C cap, (yay light tank meta) held a back flank after that and carefully picked off some slower vehicles while playing defensively, had about 15 kills in the span of about 2-3 mins and when I noticed I just ended the match with a nuke.
      Was the fastest nuke game I'd even gotten, but that kinda highlights what the vehicle is, its got some extreme firepower but none of the handholds the PT-76-57 does, you don't just have to know what YOU are doing, but also what the enemy is doing, where, when, and why,(and THEN get lucky) or you won't do even decently well with this tinder box on tracks.

I don’t know what the max magnification on it is, but I do know I can very comfortably make 1000-2000m shots in that thing where most vehicles at that BR struggle. The HEAT-FS completes the package, but it’s still not a bad vehicles just running the HESH.

    You can easily carry enough ammo to get quite a bit of kills while still putting little to no ammo in the turret of the ZSU-57-2, similar to the PT-76-57.

      Easy; the blowout panels only work if the panel itself isn't penetrated. The angle he shot it at likely smashed into the interior panel, causing the ammo det to kill the crew. I'm not saying it isn't BS, but the panels pretty often (in my experience) work if the ammo is shot directly from the side. This isn't to detract from your statement about the PT76-57; it's *very* overpowered, but in this case the blowout panels likely wouldn't have worked as the interior was damaged.

    Almost a year later, its just barely gotten to 8.0, there are vehicles with 25mm autocannons and far less penetration at 8.3-8.7 but they are there because apparently just having gen 1 thermals gets you there
    Meanwhile the russian auto 57, the most OP autocannon in game...

    Now imagine combining it and BMP-2M. Though such turret module might become too heavy for PT-76 and BMP-1/2...

    I would like to see you play the wiesel 1a2! Seeing some rat gameplay of the rattiest vehicle would be fun to watch I'm sure.

    Ah yes, Gaijin. When a russian company stops even pretending to be balanced.

    US Suggestion: I've never seen you play the M60AOS (add on stabilizer) it's on of the 8.0 m60's that (either I'm blind) I've never seen a vid on. I think it's very mid.
