This thing is genuinely great imho.
Not the most impressive alpha compared to most others, and doesn't spoil you with a turret like most others either.
it's really fast, has good camo, and the gun has amazing pen and accuracy.
Very reliable, and more satisfying to play than something like a Skorpion, at least for me.

Are we talking about the same tank?The gun is okay but i would not say it is fast.The normal kanjapz is fast firing but this one with the 105mm is not.Or at least it is slow firing for me.

I think he meant the tank itself was fast and has good camo - which is true.
It is a good tank to play sneakily, can reposition and switch flanks well. But just stay hidden, because it's usually insta-delete when spotted.

I referred to the tank being fast, which is why I typed "it's" infront of it when I stopped mentioning the gun.
I guess I could have written it a bit clearer. My bad.

I am quite enjoying the Cda, so what makes the Kanonen 105 much better in your opinion? (I have tank I want to get rid of, so I might swap it for the K105)
Well, they are more or less same as we know, but there are few things making Kanon more comfortable:
1. Mobility - there are no more small maps incoming, so no need to explain how it’s important to change flank faster or go for decap base etc.
2. Gun handling - better aiming time + gun traverse limit (even 15/15* much better than 10/10*) along with vehicle traverse speed ( 50*against 30*) makes Kanon more competitive.
3. HEAT penetration (330 against 310) - seems like little difference, but Kanon can easily fill the Mouse’s cheeks up with its shells
Those are the most important differences, but ofc it depends on a playstyle. For me mobility here is more important than +~70mm of armor and a little better camo. I don’t use camo net and bino, but always optics/vent/rammer.

AFAIK Wargaming released the Kanonen 105 because the original one was weak, so I don't think WG going to sell the original one again. But you never know, their opinion can change (that happened with the M6A2E1 for example).
yes, I am hoping for black market
