Low alpha on the gun compared to other tier 5 heavies is a serious problem in tier 7 matches. Accuracy is lacking with terrible dispersion.
Very weak side and rear armor with a large silhouette. High agility and turret traverse speed allows it to quickly respond to surprise threats detected by the player. Decent speed, high weight, and frontal armor for its tier make it one of the best ramming tanks in the game. Good rate of fire combined with good penetration for its tier. With the combination of good armor, good maneuverability, high DPM and high weight this tank will prove superior to tanks at its own tier and will prove a match to even higher tiered opponents. That said, in the hands of a good player adept at both medium tank and Hulldown (American Heavy) tactics, they will find this vehicle to be a very good tank. Alternatively, you can hold chokepoints and use your fast firing cannon to deter others from attacking.ĭo be aware that the T1 Heavy Tank requires more skill to play than the KV-1. Keep in mind that the T1 is best played as a medium tank with the speed of a heavy tank, and not as a real heavy like the KV-1. However, its long sides are very thinly protected, so keep your flanks hidden and expose only your front armor and turret to minimize incoming damage. It has good frontal armor and very thick turret armor. In addition, the T1 has a very powerful engine available as an upgrade, making the T1 a more mobile tank than its Soviet and British counterparts. Although it lacks the KV-1's extended armament options, the upgraded M1A1 cannon sports great penetration and rate of fire, taking the T1 Heavy's firepower up to par with the KV-1's 85mm.
It plays very differently compared to Soviet counterpart, the KV-1, as most players do not consider the armour on the T1 Heavy very strong. A total of 9 vehicles (1 of which was experimental) were produced.
The distinctive features of the vehicle were a cast hull and hydromechanical transmission with a double-disc hydraulic converter. The vehicle was designed as a heavy tank. The T1 Heavy Tank is an American tier 5 heavy tank.ĭevelopment of the T1E2 started in the U.S.A.
