Detailed performance characteristics of tanks. Comparison of the characteristics of tanks in World of Tanks. Soil resistance, or undercarriage patency
We have collected statistics from World of Tanks for all combat vehicles in the game.
We analyzed all the tanks for 24 main indicators and collected their key characteristics in tables. Below you will see a comparison performance characteristics of tanks by damage, movement speed, penetration, durability, initial projectile flight speed, power and armor thickness.
Tank comparison
The data in the tables are divided by characteristics and represent the top lines of the list of all WOT tanks, sorted by the selected indicator.
Damage per minute DMP
The most dangerous tanks in World of Tanks in terms of maximum damage per minute of battle. The shorter the meeting with these war machines face to face, the more chances of survival.

By maximum speed
The fastest tanks are presented in the table in terms of maximum movement speed. Tanks pick up a given speed at different times. Here we compared tanks by their movement speed on the map in the World of Tanks.
Also, in terms of maximum speed, the last two places from the table are not inferior to light tanks T-50-2, A-20 and T2 Light.
By breaking through the armor
No enemy will stand against the tanks from this table. It contains combat vehicles capable of penetrating the thickest frontal armor with a high degree of probability. It is better to protect yourself from shots of such a technique behind obstacles.
| A place | Name | Class | Level | Cannon | Penetration, mm | One-time damage, hp |
| 1 | FV215b 183 | Fri-sau | 10 | 183 mm L4 | 310 | 1150 |
| 2 | FV4005 | Fri-sau | 10 | 183 mm L4 | 310 | 1150 |

| 8 | T110E3 | Fri-sau | 10 | 155 mm AT Gun T7E2 | 295 | 750 |
By margin of safety
These tanks are unmatched in terms of hit points. Often, in order to destroy any of the tanks from the HP table, you will need more than one tank ammunition!
| A place | Name | Class | Level | Hitpoints | Weight, kg |
| 1 | Maus | tt | 10 | 3200 | 188680 |
| 2 | Type 5 Heavy | tt | 10 | 2900 | 149700 |

| 8 | 113 | tt | 10 | 2300 | 44700 |
Also, the following tanks have 2300 hp in World of Tanks: 113 BO and Mauschen.
By the speed of the projectile
Here are the leaders among WoT tanks in terms of the maximum muzzle velocity of the projectile fired. Against these tanks, it will not be possible to slip between buildings at a great distance. The hit of shells from such tanks has a high chance of penetrating armor.
| A place | Name | Class | Level | Speed, m / s |
| 1 | (R) T-62A | st | 10 | 1535 |
| 2 | Object 140 | st | 10 | 1535 |

| 7 | AMX 30 B | st | 10 | 1535 |
| 8 | AMX 30 | st | 9 | 1525 |
Also, the AMX Cda 105 tank has an initial projectile speed of 1525 meters / s.
By the ratio of engine power to weight
This table shows the characteristics of tanks, which are ways to gain maximum speed faster than others. Their engine power often exceeds the required one. On such tanks it is good to conduct reconnaissance or move among many opponents. Preemptive shots at tanks from the table below have little chance of success. It is best to hit these combat vehicles with a shot in the forehead or while the tank is stationary.
By the thickness of the body armor
The list of the most protected tanks in World of Tanks crowns the comparative tables of characteristics. There are no tanks that can be penetrated easily. All vehicles are protected and have incredible frontal armor, which only a few among all combat vehicles from the world of tanks are capable of penetrating. Fighting them head-on is the most hopeless idea. This technique was created for tanking in the front rows at a great distance, as well as for conducting positional battles.
| A place | Name | Class | Level | Forehead, mm | Board, mm | Feed, mm |
| 1 | T95 | Fri-sau | 9 | 305 | 152 | 50 |
| 2 | Type 5 Heavy | tt | 10 | 270 | 160 | 150 |

Tankers!
The release of Update 9.15 will give players expanded information on the tactical and technical characteristics of combat vehicles, both in the Garage and just awaiting study or purchase. Information about new parameters will become available to you, such as masking technique, angle values vertical guidance and some others. Also, dynamic changes in performance characteristics will be added depending on installed equipment, modules, consumables (including camouflage), skills and abilities of the crew. It will be possible to familiarize yourself in advance with the characteristics of a new, not yet purchased tank and carefully examine it appearance.
Below we will tell you more about the updated display of vehicle parameters in the Garage.
New format of performance characteristics
In the game settings, it will be possible to choose the usual format for displaying vehicle parameters or switch to a new one - the so-called simplified performance characteristics. To do this, go to the settings menu and check or uncheck the box "Show simplified performance characteristics in the Hangar".
Simplified performance characteristics- this is highlighted groups of characteristics, combining parameters that are similar in their influence on the conduct of a battle. We have divided all parameters into five groups: firepower, survivability, mobility, camouflage, surveillance.
- Firepower - a group of parameters describing the combat qualities of the gun and aiming parameters:
- basic projectile damage;
- armor penetration of the basic projectile;
- rate of fire of the gun;
- gun reload time;
- horizontal guidance speed;
- turret traverse speed;
- turret rotation angles;
- vertical guidance angles;
- horizontal guidance angles;
- reloading the magazine / drum (if any);
- information time;
- spread over 100 meters;
- average damage per minute.
- Vitality - a group of parameters that affect the combat qualities of the tank, increasing its survivability in battle:
- the number of points of strength;
- hull armoring;
- armoring the tower.
- Mobility - a group of parameters that describe the mobility of the machine:
- mass / maximum mass of the tank;
- engine power;
- specific power (ratio of tank mass and engine power);
- maximum speed forward and backward;
- chassis swing speed.
- Disguise — a new parameter indicating the effectiveness of the camouflage of the tank:
- invisibility of a stationary vehicle (before and after the shot);
- invisibility of the vehicle in motion (before and after the shot);
- Observation — a group of parameters that affect the efficiency of detecting enemy vehicles and radio communication with allies:
- viewing range;
- communication range.
Dynamic performance characteristics
Dynamic parameters are called parameters that can change their value after the installation of equipment, as you study the main specialty of tankers, as well as skills and abilities, the installation of various equipment and new modules. Changes in performance characteristics in one direction or another will be displayed in the Garage. So, for example, if the entire crew has mastered the Combat Brotherhood skill, you will be able to see the effect it has on the parameters of the combat vehicle.
Also, informational messages that appear when you hover and hold the cursor on the icon of a module or equipment have changed. Now from them you will not only receive general information about the module, but also learn in advance about the changes in performance characteristics that will occur after its installation. This will allow you to be aware of what and how exactly the module or equipment affects, and to make an informed decision.
In addition to dynamic performance characteristics, other information appeared on the pop-up screens. For example, notifications describing projectiles now contain data on armor penetration at a distance.
Vehicle preview mode
You will have the opportunity to study in detail new tank before buying, and not only its fighting qualities, but also its appearance: players will have access to a preview of a combat vehicle that has not yet been purchased in the Garage. You can access the preview screen from the research tree, from the Warehouse, or from the Store.
While viewing, you will see what the vehicle looks like, you will be able to find out the performance characteristics in various configurations of modules (for example, with a basic or "top-end" weapon) and get a general idea of the tank's features.
Cars have many characteristics that are displayed in the hangar: armor thickness, one-time damage, vision, radio range, etc. But what many players do not know is that there are characteristics that are not available in this way. Moreover, they are not disclosed by the developers at all, so any data is unofficial. What are these characteristics?
The note does not dwell in detail on specific features tanks of the American, German, French or British branches, the scheme of their armor. It is devoted to the key characteristics of cars, regardless of which branch they belong to. This information will help you choose the right machines for the next swing.
Booking in World of Tanks
A hidden parameter of tanks in World of Tanks is armor. In the tactical and technical characteristics (hereinafter - TTX) of the machine, only the largest reservation is indicated, for example, the sides of the hull or stern. For example, in A-44, a Soviet medium tank of the seventh level, 150 mm is indicated for the forehead of the hull, but only a small strip between the upper and lower frontal parts has this thickness.
Without the help of special programs (the same Tank Inspector) the exact values of individual places of the reservation cannot be viewed. A variety of reference historical literature will help here, in which there are booking schemes for real prototypes. But few players are willing to spend time studying such books.
Many hidden characteristics of tanks can be found in the Tank Inspector.
Soil resistance, or undercarriage patency
An extremely important hidden characteristic of machines is soil resistance, in other words, cross-country ability... This is an extremely important characteristic that greatly affects the dynamics of the tank as a whole. Developers are trying to give virtual machines engines similar to real ones, in other words, give them the same amount of horsepower.
But due to the balancing requirements, the virtual tank needs to be made either more mobile than the real prototype, or less. Moreover, this difference can be very significant. For example, in reality, American Chaffee with great difficulty, he gained maximum speed even on good soils, and in the game and on weak grounds it both accelerates and turns well.
In other words, the specific engine power, which is indicated in the performance characteristics of the tank in the hangar, says little without meaning. cross-country ability... The tank can have a powerful engine, but poor dynamics precisely because of the mediocre cross-country ability. It is indirectly indicated by the swing speed of the chassis (usually, the higher the swing speed, the better the cross-country ability of the chassis), but there is no exact formula for the relationship.
Another extremely important characteristic of machines in is the stabilization of the gun, in other words, the influence of the movement of the body and the turret (or just the barrel) on the increase in the spread circle. As in the case of cross-country ability, without stabilization, the explicit characteristics that are indicated in the performance characteristics in the hangar mean little.
One of the important characteristics of vehicles in World of Tanks is gun stabilization.
Accuracy, stabilization and aiming speed of guns
There are guns in the game with relatively good precision and aiming speed, but in fact, mixing on them takes a long time precisely because of poor stabilization... The converse is also true; in general, accuracy by itself does not mean that you will often hit. After all, if the stabilization is bad, then after stopping you will have to reduce for a long time, for which there is often no time.
Usually stabilization is directly related to the speed of convergence: the higher the latter, the better the stabilization. But there are many exceptions to this. For example, many Tank destroyer aiming speed is very high, but stabilization is still worse than that of most medium tanks. In other words, nothing can be said with complete certainty.
Everyone is used to the hidden characteristics of tanks - both the developers and the players themselves. The first try not to overload the game with information, and the second, if they are really interested in it, can themselves find the information they need with the help of mods and additional programs.
Strictly speaking, even the actual characteristics of the tank in battle, which are obtained after applying various modifiers to them (first of all, this equipment and the level of mastery of the main specialty of the crew members), are hidden. On a pure client without mods, they are not indicated, so the player can only guess how much exactly is, for example, an overview of his tank.
In secret to the whole world ...
Why do the developers keep such data about the World of Tanks tank a secret? There could be multiple answers here. Firstly, it is worth noting that this state of affairs has developed for a very long time, both players and developers themselves are used to it. The introduction of the display of hidden characteristics takes time and effort, the developers, most likely, spend them on something more important (at least from their point of view).
Secondly, it is believed that training players in general is simply not profitable for developers, since a good player has fewer reasons, for example, to pay for a premium account. And showing the hidden characteristics is a stage of such training, as it allows you to better understand the mechanics of the game. But it is worth saying that good players are unlikely to invest less money in the game compared to inexperienced tankers, there is no direct relationship.
Showing hidden characteristics is the main step in training a new player. This is the only way he can better understand the mechanics of the game.
Thirdly, the developers of World of Tanks try not to complicate the game and not overload it with information, since the game audience mostly consists of inexperienced players, to whom such hidden characteristics generally mean little. The approach of the developers here is quite simple: those who really need it and are interested will find everything themselves with the help of mods, specialized resources, etc. Nevertheless, knowing all the parameters of the tanks, you can choose the best models.

WoTCalc is a new unique service for World players of Tanks.
Not so long ago, a website appeared on the vastness of the World Wide Web - a very convenient specialized service for World of Tanks players. The main purpose of the service is to compare any tanks from WoT in terms of characteristics, which, of course, will be extremely useful for anyone who wants to better understand the intricacies of the game. This article will discuss in detail the extensive capabilities of the site.
Sections of the site
Tank comparison
The main section that interests us the most. On the left and right, we see two columns with the tactical and technical characteristics of the tanks. In the middle is the "Comparison" column, where you can see the difference in the performance characteristics of the selected vehicle (comparison is made relative to the vehicle in the right column, that is, for example, if the characteristic is indicated green, then the tank on the right is better than the tank on the left). The following functions are available in the section:
- Studying all characteristics of tanks - both public and hidden, and even calculated ones, such as average damage per minute. You can study the performance characteristics not only of the tank as a whole, but also of each module separately. Design characteristics are calculated using reliable formulas and taking into account one hundred percent crew;
- Comparison of tanks in different configurations - want to know how the stock configuration of your tank differs from the top one? You can specify the same car in both columns, and then compare the characteristics of the modules you are interested in, simply by selecting them from the drop-down list;
- Comparison of equipment in different versions of the client- completely unique functionality, thanks to which you can track changes in the characteristics of tanks from patch to patch. Do you think that after the next update it became harder or easier to play on your favorite tank? With this service, you can easily check if there was a hidden nerf or up of the car you are interested in;
- Viewing all trees of the development of tanks in the current patch - by clicking on the "Select a tank" button, you will see a list of nations with the corresponding branches of development. With the help of this functionality, it is much easier to search for the equipment you need. However, you can do this by simply typing in the name of the car in the search bar just to the right of the list of nations:
Also notice the projectile icons next to each column:
By hovering over them, you can find out the detailed characteristics of each projectile, such as caliber, speed and range, average damage, armor penetration and price. Below are the circles, which indicate the average damage per minute for the weapon using the corresponding projectile. By hovering over the circle, you will find out the number of shots and reloads that this weapon makes per minute.
news
An equally useful section where you can track changes in latest updates World of Tanks, such as nerfing or upgrading vehicles, adding tanks, or replacing existing vehicles with new ones. Links will also be provided there, by clicking on which you will find direct comparisons of the changed or replaced vehicles, for example, a comparison of the Japanese Heavy Tank No VI premium tank introduced into the game in patch 0.9.9, better known as the "Japanese Tiger", with the Tiger 1 from the german branch.
Help the project
Every interesting project needs financial support, and this site is no exception. Anyone can transfer a voluntary monetary donation to one of the wallets indicated in this section.
Other advantages of WoTCalc.ru
In addition to extensive opportunities, the first impression and the convenience of working with the resource are very important. The site pleases the eye of the user with a discreet but strict design, unloaded with all sorts of unnecessary garbage and a comfortable arrangement of the functionality. It is also necessary to note the almost complete absence of advertising - you will not see any pop-ups or huge banners on half a page.
Of course, the project does not stand still, and as the site develops, the functionality of the site will only increase - new features will be added and old ones improved. But even now, this service can provide a lot of information that is extremely important for any player. Thanks to you, you will be able to accurately calculate what your favorite tank is capable of and use it in battle with maximum efficiency, which will undoubtedly change the quality of your game for the best.
Despite the ease of learning, online game world of Tanks - computer game complex, with many parameters and characteristics, including tanks.What do we see in our hangar for each of our tanks? Yes, these are various characteristics of the car, but the parameters are not only not all, but also inaccurate. Let's just show it using the example of a booking, which is tritely indicated in millimeters. But there is such a reservation only on a part of the area of each projection, there are zones of weakened reservation, there is a strong cannon mask.
The picture is approximately the same with almost all characteristics. In addition, part of the tank's performance characteristics in the hangar, in principle, are not displayed, although they can be viewed on the website www .. For example, the UHN and UGN weapons are not reflected in the game client itself, but they can be found on the official wikipedia world of tanks. But far from everything is reflected there.
Let's start to figure out why the developers do not like to please players with the exact characteristics of game armored vehicles, a thorough description of the principles of game mechanics.
No need to complicate
No, you should not immediately think about an insidious conspiracy of no less insidious wargaming, although we will also talk about this in this article, but a little later. The first reason is trivial and logical - players simply don't need detailed information. In more detail and more precisely, most players do not need such information. I will say more, many do not attach importance even to those performance characteristics that are indicated right in the hangar to the right of the tank.
Developers need profit, which means that their product must meet the aspirations of the majority, even to the detriment of those who are interested in all the performance characteristics of armored vehicles. In addition, there will be some complication in the game client itself, it would be necessary to think about something about displaying a large amount of technical data, and this is an extra work of programmers, extra costs for developing the world of tanks.
So simple logic and lack of interest in technical details among the target audience lead to the fact that client wot very little is indicated on tanks. Fortunately, those who wish can get acquainted with additional performance characteristics on official resources. But there are also those characteristics that you will not find anywhere else.
Secret game of KVG
And here, yes, we are talking about a conspiracy of developers. More precisely, there is no conspiracy, it's just an additional element that allows you to correct the balance without any announcement. Now they are going to change the slope of the armor plates in Super Pershing in 0.8.8, what a fuss has arisen among the players. But you can change the masking parameters, the cross-country ability of the chassis quietly, without unnecessary noise and dust.
A number of tank characteristics are not published at all. A very important characteristic is the vehicle's stealth coefficient, you will not find it. The developers themselves edit these parameters, without our knowledge and without announcing changes. Hiding behind bushes is useful - but how specific? In 0.8.6 we weakened the effect of the bushes, but by how much? About 20%, but how much was it originally?
Do you think that the dynamics and maximum speed of the tank depend on the engine power and the mass of the armored vehicle? Yes, but in a spherical vacuum, because the tank tracks the tracks on the ground, and the cross-country ability of the chassis is not announced anywhere. Sometimes developers publish changes to these characteristics, but with what to compare, because the value itself was not named.
There are many examples here, and about each of them on www .. This gives developers a wide field of maneuver, you can change the tank without changing the open performance characteristics, without attracting much attention to it. And KVG does not intend to lose such an advantage.
Total
By and large, this article should not be considered a disclosure, because disclosure implies some kind of deception. In fact, world game of tanks is wholly owned by the developers, the players have no rights. We may or may not play tanks, and donators don’t think that they somehow stand out from the gray mass, but this is a different story.
Immediately, we just note that not all the performance characteristics of tanks, and the parameters of the game, are known to us. Many developers simply did not bring to game client so as not to burden the average player who has come to the world of tanks to relax with unnecessary data. The developers keep other game parameters secret so that the game is convenient to manipulate.
