Directly operated uniforms may encounter MBT-B opened by testers
Hello Elders, I'm Anabel Cardo. After the 1.20 update, WG also issued some of the tanks previously in the super test suit to testers, and these people may be met in the direct service to drive these tanks out for testing. The previously reported M-series 10-class heavy MBT-B is also included, but WG has also made some modifications to it. In this issue, let's take a look at its current data and my evaluation.

Spit time
Big weakness of 240 mm
MBT-B's data has been repeatedly modified several times since its inception. Its current performance has been quite a step away from the first exposure, let's first look at its defense: most of the front of this guy's turret was around 350mm thick, and even the vertical plane that seemed to be a weak point was 350mm. But under the latest data, it has turned out there to be a weak spot 240 mm thick, which is not difficult to fight in real combat. If it shakes its head and hides this weakness, it will expose the weaknesses on both sides of the turret.
The side of the guide wheel is 40 mm
This guy's body is very good on the head, only the left and right shoulders and the head are weaknesses, and the existence of these two shoulders makes the MBT-B unable to sell the side, even at the slightest angle. And the side of this guy's car body is 40 mm, and the large caliber can be easily crushed, which means that this guy sells his head very well, and the city war is depleted. After weakening, the firepower data of MBT-B can also be said to be good, but not as powerful as before - it can still be said to be good at the level of accuracy, penetration, triple expansion, and shrinkage, and DPM is not lame.
It can be confirmed that this cannon is a decoration
What really makes me regret is that the MBT-B's so-called "special abilities" turned out to be fake, and it was possible to confirm that its coaxial cannon was a decoration and could not be applied in practice. At the same time, WG's weakening of its mobility, I think is the most critical: the previous MBT-B's mobility base is very good, and if you change the maneuver appropriately, you can even let it go to the middle line to bully people, which is really terrifying. Now it is more difficult to play this way (you can play like this, but it is not as comfortable as before), and if you choose to go against Chongtan, the big weakness on its head becomes a problem again.
Again: if you are not close to the people, then there is no point
It can be said that WG has mastered the strength of MBT-B very well, and now it has not reached the terrifying point of "bald chief", and the combat effectiveness can be said to be similar to T110E5 on the whole, but both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages. For such a Level 10 special car, I personally think it may be a qualifying annual reward, similar to the 114 SP2, of course, it may also be a prize for the next assembly workshop... I said that I was playing, and I couldn't count it. Please note that all my comments above are based on the current WG test data scheme on March 5, 2023, and may change in the future. I will continue to pay attention and bring you new trends. I am Anabel, Cardo, always thinking about the vital interests of our players.
