The Best Light Tank In War Thunder

The Soviet Object 906 light tank is probably the best of its type in War Thunder, at least in my opinion. This 7.7 vehicle is stabilized, has a very fast autoloader, and APHE rounds that can take out just about anything in one hit. I think Gaijin should move it back to 8.0, it has no business fighting 6.7s.

The Best Light Tank In War Thunder

Hey spookston. The next tank you and oddbawz should suffer in is the M5A1 Stuart with SAPHE only. Or if you’re feeling extra spicy, try the M6 heavy using the 37mm only with SAPHE.

For ones who were intrigued by Spookston's words about a crocodile In Russia, a crocodile is a slang name for desomorphine, a handicrafted opioid injection narcotic, made from cough syrups or pills that contain codeine. Low quality input and harsh circs give an output of a mud-coloured liquid, that contains remnants of acids, gasoline and other reagents that are used during the brewing process. This surrogate is mainly used by deep addicts, and often is prepared by themselves. It got its name for its influence upon human skin: around the place of injection, it becomes harsh and dry, like crocodiles. The alternative version goes from the fact most addicts who used desomorphine lose their limbs pretty soon - like if a crocodile bite them off.

5:08 In typical swedish fashion, the STRV tries to throw it back in an attempt to seduce the enemy combatant. Unfortunately this attempt to exchange his bussy for his life proves futile, as the Object 906 does not take the bait and absolutely domes him. Such is harsh life out in the snail’s savannah. This has been todays episode of National Gaijographic.

Once I was in a battle with my Leopard 1 in the new map I was fighting one of these obj 906s and I managed to get a shot on his turret, killing one of the crew members (who I thought was the loader of the supposedly non-autoloading tank) At the time I didn't know it had an autoloader, and a real fast reload for that, so I sat on front of him to put another round into him, reasoning that I would out-reload him since he had shot at me at the same time I shot him Y'all probably can guess what happened

@@user-rs5ui5lg5i I’ve .50d 906s many times before. They usually survive unless you’re firing at a vulnerable spot. Hit the rear and you’re only going to damage the engine, hit the front and they’ll bounce. Top works for tall tanks and planes but only rounds to the sides will kill if you’re anything shorter. Then again, it’s still up to the whims of the snail as sometimes you can shoot this thing with a 120 mm cannon and “bounce”. Heck, I’ve shot this thing with my CEV’s 165 HESH before and it survived.

That second STRV kill was soooooooooo nasty. Getting what is essentially a roof shot is always satisfying. If possible could you also do a video on the M50? It's mostly thought of as a meme tank but I feel like with enough practice it can be one hell of a fun tank to master because of all the potential to wipe out an entire flank.
The sketch at 1:46 illustrates the combined battles issue splendidly
I remember the patch when the OBJ 906 came. People thought the PT-57-2 or whatever that shit is called was OP. Imagine a time when you were at 7.0 BR with a 4 second reload. vs WWII tanks and maybe a few centurions here and there. This was before Sweden, Italy, Israel, and China. When it was just US, GER, RU, Brit, and japan tanks were just released but didn't have what they have now.

Object 906 is really one of the best light tanks. I did -6 in my first battle. I even had no repairs or fire extinguishers I have noticed one curious detail. Obj 906 has a slight elevation on turret roof. I'm not really sure, but it's probably extra space for breech to be lifted, which might provide some extra depression, compared to most soviet tanks
Honestly my favorite tank in game unfortunately you made a video on it so now Gaijin is probably going to raise it's BR. The stock round is amazing too!
