Take a "chief" inventory
Hello captains and gentlemen. After the FV4201 "Chief" prototype car this 9-level overtest vehicle was exposed, the "Chief" series tanks in the game have reached 5, and many friends said that they still can't distinguish these guys, so let's do a "Chief" topic today and take a good inventory of these "Chiefs".
Inventory of "Chiefs in the Game"
Leopard 1 early production model with Chieftain prototype car
The "Chief" can be seen as a "hybrid evolution" of the Centurion and conqueror tanks, at least the British originally thought so - to let a tank have the mobility of the centurion and the firepower of the conquerors, but due to many factors such as design conditions and NATO requirements, the performance of the "Chief" is not so good, but it is still the main tank of the British in the middle of the Cold War, and a lot of designs have been derived. For a game like wot, which spans time from the interwar to the middle and late Cold War, "Chieftain" is indeed of great significance.
Chief T95
After strengthening, it is also a rotten car
The Chieftain T95 was born out of a project jointly tossed between britain and the United States in the 1960s (Canada also participated in a kick), trying to combine the T95 medium tank that americans had high hopes for and the British "Chief" so that various benefits such as the interchange of parts could be achieved in wartime, but the most basic problem of the plan was that the turret seat rings of the tanks had size differences and could not be adapted, and it was difficult to solve the problem of turret gondola volume after using the seat ring adapter. At the same time, it was difficult for the tank soldiers of the two countries to grasp the use characteristics of these two hulls/weapons, and the training cost was extremely high and the effect was not good, and the whole project was finally completed. In the game's level 8 gold coins, the Tan Chieftain T95 is obtained by placing the turret of the T95 medium tank on the Chieftain's hull.
There is an unwritten rule in the wot, that is, the tank gun must be a rifled gun, and the armor remains in the average armored steel, but obviously this has brought a lot of trouble to WG's "car-making business", so they are also gradually breaking through this restriction. In reality, the 90mm T208 gun used by the Chieftain T95 is a smoothbore gun, and the game hides the bell with a "rifled" in the back, and this gun does not bring any special advantages to the Chief T95 - except for the 1570 bullet-speed early steel needle bullet, the penetration depth is still very general. The Chieftain T95 was strengthened once last summer, but this car is still very disappointing, the specific disadvantage is that it has a large bag on the top of its turret, the hull is not only extremely poor defense and maneuverability, the concealment of the tank is also very bad, this 90 gun is also very difficult to play, a thousand words, that is, the Level 8 Chieftain T95 is a pure rotten car.
Chieftain Mk.VI
The so-called "chieftain 10,000"
Chieftain Mk.VI is the only "chief" in our game, and it is the 6th version of "chief" in reality. In the game, it is the so-called "Chieftain Ten Thousand", which is a Y series 10 special heavy tank, which belongs to the early production of WG but has not thought about how to put it in the game. Due to the "special service" of the old national service period, as long as it was a large customer at that time, you could contact the exclusive customer service and spend ten thousand yuan to get this car, because there was no tank with such a high price in the wot before, so the name of "Chieftain Ten Thousand" was so loud. After the national service update, these old super test cars are factual out of print, but from the perspective of the 268 project V-type re-emergence, perhaps WG will be in the future through the form of activities to "ming media is marrying" to come back, after all, do it all done well, do not use it to make money that is not a waste.
The chieftain Mk.VI performance, and not so perfect
Due to the extremely expensive price of the Chieftain Mk.VI, everyone has quite a lot of "fantasies" about it, and it must be considered a hegemonic tank with air every second and second. In fact, I really don't think so - everyone knows that I have a chief Mk.VI, but I rarely mention this car, and one of the important reasons is that its experience in the field team, especially the single team, is not good. The most prominent feature of the Chieftain Mk.VI is that its cannon is very good, the three expansions, accuracy and shrinkage are impeccable, the basic DPM is as high as 3000+, and the top match can reach close to 4000. However, the chieftain's Mk.VI maneuverability is quite average, and the body defense is extremely poor, and the turret defense is not reliable. Chief Mk.VI is like a level 10 renegade, the output ability is very domineering but very fragile, more eat teammates, you can't be a big brother, and the enemy's hatred for you is very high, and it is really jailed to play this car.
T95 Chief
The so-called "Chieftain Five Thousand"
The level 10 T95 chief and the level 8 chief T95 always have friends who can't tell the difference, in fact, they both belong to the Anglo-American cooperation plan, but the turret of the T95 chief is the genuine chief, and the hull is the T95 medium tank. The T95 chief's path and life and the chief's Mk.VI are exactly the same, except that the price of the old national service to obtain the T95 chief is 5,000 yuan, so it is also named "chieftain five thousand".
The firepower is not as good as the chieftain's ten thousand
The T95 Chieftain's firepower is a little worse in all respects than the Chieftain Ten Thousand, but the gap is not particularly large, and it can still remain at the level of the Super Conqueror. However, I personally think that the T95 Chieftain is more fun than the "Chieftain Ten Thousand", and the upper limit is higher - because the chassis of the T95 medium tank gives it better maneuverability, and the funny thing is that this chassis can be better than the chassis defense of the genuine Chief, and the T95 Chief has a strange advantage that its concealment is particularly good, similar to the Type 59, and the basic concealment is about 15%. But how to say it, the hatred value of the T95 chief is also very high, although most people do not know what it is, but after the "bald chief" is issued in the national uniform, everyone only needs to see the 10th level car with the word chief is the priority greeting, so I don't drive it much.
T95/FV4201 Chief
The so-called bald chieftain
Historically, the T95/FV4201 chief and the T95 chief are basically one car, but WG made them two cars in the game, and the T95/FV4201 chief is a territorial war acquisition, known as the "bald chief". Its performance, especially the tank's comprehensive output capability and turret defense, is one of the best in the 10-level heavy tank, and has the following advantages:
A single shot of 440 damage of 120 guns, highly matched with 7-8 seconds a shot
270/322 penetration dual APCR bullet with a velocity of 1150/1334
There is also a HESH with 530 damage, 140 penetration depth, and 1067 bullet speed
Excellent integrated gun control performance
Extremely powerful turret frontal defense
-10 degree pitch angle
410 meters of basic view
Not bad for maneuverability and flexibility
If most of the 10-level cars are barely mixed by relying on one or two advantages, and a few 10-class cars rely on three or four advantages to perform well, then for the "bald chief", its own performance is the representative of "tall and complete", but there are one or two disadvantages (such as slightly poor body defense). It's not invincible, but it's more brainless to play than the average tank.
In front of 340HEAT, its head is also close to invincible
With the exception of a small hatch at the top of the turret, common tanks are basically unable to penetrate its turret from the front. And the output ability of the "Bald Chief" is very high, and it is extremely difficult to take a close look at the head bag of the "Bald Chief" with a fire of 440 damage in 7-8 seconds, not to mention that the "Bald Chief" can rely on the fire control advantage to fight with you in the head movement war, and it is extremely difficult to hit the head bag of the "Bald Chief" in this case. Even if it is a level 10 TD, only the 420 piercings of the Hundred Turks can stably penetrate the turret of the "Bald Chief" on the flat ground, and if the "Bald Chief" presses the angle to sell its head, it will be in vain. The direct service caused a great shock when the car was first introduced, and the subsequent changes in the game mechanics such as map design, HE changes, troll cars and artillery weakening invisibly lifted the "bald chief" to the supreme throne.
FV4201 Chieftain prototype
The FV4201 Chieftain prototype is a car that WG has just released recently, and it is still uncertain whether it is 9 gold or 9 special, and I personally tend to be 9 gold. Starting with last year's "AMX30 Early Prototype", it seems that WG has discovered a new wealth code - on the basis of existing tanks, they will make a version of their various prototypes into a version of the gold coin car for sale. The "IS-4 Hara" K-2, the "Little 260 Project" 259 Project A type, etc. that we said earlier are all done in this way. Only this time, WG attacked the "chief" with the most powerful combat performance in the game. Although this car is called the FV4201 Chieftain prototype, I think it is obviously closer to the "Nemesis Tank" developed by the British Tank Technical College in 1974, especially the hull. However, it is clear that the name "Chief FV4201" is louder and more appealing, which is a business strategy.
The hatch on its head is not small
According to the current data of the FV4201 Emirates prototype, the advantages and disadvantages of the car are as follows:
Although no armored model is available, the frontal defense of the turret should be extremely strong
The basic 1950 blood volume can be said to be quite strong
Good gun control, excellent ammunition, good pitch angle, large ammunition reserve, suitable for selling heads
Standard Y series 4 people, excellent crew versatility
The body's defense is very weak
The turret has a hatch at the top, which is a clear weakness here
Extremely low speed, maneuverability should be able to refer to AE Phase I
Now the FV4201 Chieftain prototype car in this data form inherits the most important advantages of the "Bald Chief" - good guns and iron heads, but the FV4201 Chieftain prototype still has its own problems - first of all, the body is very poor, and its body defense should be worse than the 59, which is a level with the T-44. Coupled with the weak (or traditional) mobility, this makes the FV4201 Chieftain prototype can not appear on the Middle Tank Line to bully people, but basically can only sell the head point and fight with the heavy tanks. Secondly, after the release of this wave of real-time pictures, you may have noticed that WG has set a weakness similar in size to the top of the turret of the FV4201 Chieftain prototype car, which will become the Achilles heel of the FV4201 Chieftain prototype car at close range.
Write at the end
When will you break through the level 10 limit?
At present, there are 5 chiefs in the game, of which the FV4201 chief prototype car is still overtested, and because I am not involved in the social gameplay such as territorial warfare, I have not got the bald chief, only the remaining three chiefs have it. After reading my analysis, in fact, it is not difficult for everyone to find that the so-called ten thousand chiefs and five thousand chiefs are not as good as imagined, on the contrary, the iron-headed prince bald chief made by WG is the strongest of these chiefs. After the future FV4201 chieftain prototype car is installed, I will definitely be the first to make one to do the evaluation, and the other chiefs can't run away, please continue to pay attention! I am Anabel, Caddo, always thinking about the vital interests of our players. If you like my car reviews, please also forward and share the promotion to let more captains go home.
