Somewhat expensive for medium tank, but has only alpha and some armor on turret going for it. Definitely on the turd side of the current tanks in the game, so can only recommend to stay away from this one. T-44-100 is way more versatile and even T-54 Prototype beats this hands down. This vehicle is like made to be ran with food, that would buff the lacking stats of the tank to about mediocre levels compared to it's competitors when they are ran without food. Just not enjoyable or competitive tank in any way.
Currently this has about worst DPM of single shot mediums, slow shell velocity, slow mobility, bad view range, belov average gun handling (but OK for it's alpha, still frustrating combined with it's terrible DPM and shell velocity), OKish gun depression, paper armor except on the turret. Tries to be a second line peek-a-boom tank, as the armor, mobility and terrbile DPM does not allow you to go anywhere near other tanks until they are one shot for you. However most of the time the poorish gun handling combined with RNG and slow shell velocity only manages to frustrate you if you try to take shots from medium to long range, and the worst view range (370m) of any tier 8 medium makes you unable to spot long ranges without food or binocs no matter how good crew you have.
I'd say buff the mobility, DPM and shell velocity a bit, up the view range to usable 380m ~ 390m and this tank could actually work for it's role.
