A friend said that he wanted to do map analysis and the like. In fact, I have tried to do it before, but once I made a map, people didn't like to read it. After repeated attempts, I basically stopped thinking about making maps.

Dear bosses, hello everyone, . After entering July, there is no news again... A friend said that he wanted to see map analysis and the like. In fact, I have tried to do it before, but once the map was made, people didn't like to see it very much. After doing this again and again, I basically Don't consider making maps related to . World of Tanks World of Tanks, tanks are the most important, let’s talk about cars. Today I would like to talk to you about a tank that was beaten to death by the Chinese Volunteer Army during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and was also captured. It is the M46 "Tiger" tank.

Chatting about the "M46 Tiger"

Superstition

Photos of real cars, Americans really painted the car like this

The story of the M46 "Tiger" starts with Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aiding Korea . This was the only war in which the M46 "Patton" participated. The first batch of M46s were deployed to the area around Busan along with the 6th Tank Battalion to resist the wave of attacks by the Korean People's Army. It is said that they destroyed at least 6-9 T-34-85 and SU of the Korean People's Army. -76. However, after the volunteers entered North Korea to fight, the 6th Tank Battalion lost almost all its heavy equipment in the chaotic escape. The Americans had to send out planes to blow up these abandoned tanks (many of them were still used by our military technicians) They were rescued and brought back to China to be used as teaching aids). In addition to poor reliability, the M46 has extremely high fuel consumption. When marching on ordinary South Korean roads, M46 will burn 15 liters of gasoline (4.5 gallons/mile) every 1.8 kilometers. WG military consultants are quoted here. ) , because of this or that problem, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea became the first and only war in which M46 participated.

Don't say it, it's quite cute

However, American tankers like to brag about the performance of the M46, saying that it is "invincible" when facing the T-34-85.. However, when the Americans inspected 240 destroyed Korean People's Army tanks and armored vehicles, they found that only 39 of them were clearly destroyed by tank shells, and 3 "may be tanks", so the sixth one mentioned above The M46s in the tank battalion only have a record of 6-9 tank kills, which is quite reliable. After the Volunteer Army entered Korea to fight, Americans were frightened by the Volunteer Army's anti-tank technology. I didn't know where I heard a rumor that "Chinese people are afraid of tigers", so they painted it on the body of their own tank. All kinds of tigers showing their teeth and claws . However, these ridiculous graffiti did not embolden the American tank crews. On the contrary, they became a unique "battlefield creation", which can only be said to be very ridiculous.

The existing "Tiger" painting M46

Americans don't know that the PLA has never been afraid of tanks and armored vehicles since its inception. From the Anti-Japanese War to the War of Liberation, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and even the later self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, the PLA was annihilated , I don’t know how many tanks were captured, and a set of infantry anti-tank tricks were also summed up during the war. For example, in the battle to annihilate the First Division of the 57th Regiment of the 29th Brigade Royal Rifles of the British Army and the squadron directly under the 8th British Cavalry Regiment on the evening of January 3, 1951, Li Guanglu from the 2nd Battalion, 5th Company, 446th Regiment, 50th Army of the Volunteer Army , a single person used explosive packs to blow up three British tanks in a row, and won the title of "Combat Hero" . In this battle, the British army lost 527 tanks, armored vehicles, and 3 cars. Our army captured 4 tanks, 3 armored vehicles, 18 cars, and howitzers. More than 200 people were killed and wounded, including Major and Battalion Commander Konis. 227 people raised their hands and surrendered obediently and became prisoners.

Cute Tiger in the Forest

M46 "Tiger" This car was added to the game in version 0.9.14. My car was drawn through a lottery because its data was really bad, so it kept gathering dust.In fact, WG didn't care about this car at all. They just strengthened the turret armor of the car a little in version 0.9.17, then threw the car into the game store in version 0.9.22, and then 1.5.1 The version was taken out again and placed in the promotional vehicle. The most recent enhancement to was version 1.14 last summer, which enhanced its reload time and aiming time. It seems that WG has not completely forgotten this guy .

In-game performance

It's 2022. This main gun data...

M46 "Tiger" is a relatively common one in the game. It is a level 8 90-gun Western medium tank . It is really similar to the T25 PN1 we introduced before. There is not much difference. The difference is that the M46 "Tiger" is a stereotyped equipment, everything is standard, but the data core is no different. 240 The 90-mm cannon with single-shot damage was commonplace seven or eight years ago. The penetration depth of 192/243 also made everyone less interested in the M46 "Tiger". After all, one will be used in 2022 and cannot penetrate stably. The 8-gold tank on the front of the 59 car body is really masochistic..

Medium and short-range gun control is okay

Anyway, apart from the penetration gap, the T25 PN1's accuracy, aiming time and three expansions look okay, but the gun control data of the M46 "Tiger" can only be called so far. On the good level, is more because its speed is not fast enough, so its gun control is okay when playing. ... In actual combat, my specific feeling is that the M46 "Tiger" gun is good at medium and short range. The gun control is okay, but it becomes annoying once it encounters a hard target. In actual combat with , it is impossible to choose the opponent and the battle situation. In actual combat, due to problems such as the position of both parties, player status, specific points, and even operation delays, the 192 penetration depth of the M46 "Tiger" will make you feel every time. The probability of firing a shell to penetrate the enemy and cause damage is not as good as those vehicles with a penetration depth of about 210-220 (P46, etc.) . The defense power of

is now outdated. The defense power and survivability performance of the "Tiger" can be said to be behind today in 2022. Although it uses Little Button's body + Little Button's whiteboard head,... its defense is unreliable. This turret relies entirely on mantlet random ricochet at large angles. If the enemy hits it correctly, it will penetrate it. And its body is also green, and it is unreliable to line up with the current mainstream level 8 medium tanks (such as 59). I have never seen any resistance to in actual combat. This 1450 blood is completely giving meat to the opponent . Try to rely on the terrain cover to fight, it will really be a loss if you fight hard. What to do with

? There is a gap in maneuverability with others. The mobility of

M46 "Tiger" was also poisoned by WG. I think everyone will find the mobility of level 9 Little Patton acceptable, but the M46 "Tiger"... is not that interesting. The power-to-weight ratio of the M46 "Tiger" of nearly 20 is indeed not bad, but the tracks and the 48's top speed are holding it back, and there is a gap between the driving performance and the mainstream level 8 medium tanks. For example, in the picture above, everyone is running together, but your M46 "Tiger" arrives later than the 59 and T-44, and fights with the enemy later. The traditional field of view advantage of the M series medium tank is not very obvious in the M46 "Tiger" - the base is 390 meters, which is lower than that of Pershing and other vehicles. Its base concealment is not even 13%, which is also Very American .

I personally think that the reason why the M46 "Tiger" is so unpopular is actually very simple. It is an "almost Mr." similar to T25PN1, No. 58, T95E2 and other tanks. It can do a little bit of everything, but Nothing outstanding, just ordinary and featureless.I would not choose to drive this car out for fun. It neither provides me with a good gaming experience (instead it provides a good gaming experience for the enemy), nor does it allow me to "earn silver coins while standing." , it is indeed an embarrassing car. is worth a thousand words - can be played, but is not fun. Probably apart from its collection value, it was replaced or exchanged for silver coins . I am Anabel, Cardo, and I always think about the vital interests of our players. If you like my car review, please forward to share and promote it so that more car captains can go home.
