The Ugliest Armored Car

British tanks are not known for their great aesthetics, and the AEC Mk II armored car is a perfect example. Though it is quite similar to the T18E2 Boarhound in that it is a rare low tier wheeled vehicle with a 57mm 6 pounder (one of the best cannons in War Thunder), it is quite difficult to look at.

@@aiedenoldstien9751 M7 Medium had it in its earlier iteration. In the end the only vehicle built en masse with the 57mm was the T48 gun motor carriage, which ended up all getting sent to the British, who then sent them to the Soviets. TD Branch believed that the 75mm was better at range due to the heavier shell, and Armored Force wanted something with good HE capability.
the 6 pdr. is one of those cannons that makes you go "why is this on a higher br than the 75mm?" and when you play it you go "oh.."

Nobody likes british vehicles not even the british
In the UK we can only make two kinds of armoured vehicles. 1) Utterly hideous and looks like it wouldn't work and doesn't. 2) Utterly hideous, looks like it won't work but is somehow one of the best vehicles ever.
Britain use something other than solid shot rounds: impossible! High explosive? That's not very sporting! What, what! Attempt 28: requesting Spookston to play one of the "Alternate" Top Tier tanks: M48 Super AMX 40
I find it hilarious that Britain's best tanks aren't tanks but just cars with guns strapped onto them

Britain had some of the best armoured cars of the war and has historically being the biggest user of them. Even in modern combat, the British use armoured cars and infantry as the tip of the spear, with tanks fulfilling more of a support and hold ground role. It's why it's so criminal that we still don't have a proper domestic scout line for Britain. One of the reasons they were so good is because they had some of the best heavy vehicle manufacturers at the time, which could apply their skills to them better than a tracked vehicle. The AEC for example is built on one of their existing truck chassis. The Chieftain did a couple of video's on this particular vehicle which is well worth a watch. He also did one on the Ferret, which is a fantastic little scout car that I believe is still used today in some countries.

@@MrEsphoenix To be fair, being used in some countries isn't really a high bar. Brazil is still using the Madsen and that thing is objectively overcomplicated garbage compared to pretty much any LSW produced since the end of WW1. The Bren literally just took the Madsen's concept and made it practical, both to use and maintain, it is better than the Madsen in every way, and yet Brazil still uses them because anything that goes bang is useful. Most of the countries still using Ferrets use them for the same reason, it's a choice between no armor, or at least no light armor, or a Ferret, and that's an easy choice to make

3:11 it's even stranger when you realise the Americans used the 6pdr enmasse as a towed gun.
When you have solid shot, you run into many situations that make you wish you had APHE. When you have APHE, you run into fewer moments that make you wish you had solid shot... But those moments tend to be so annoying that it basically equals out.

Spookston the type of Halo Player to grab the sniper rifle, go 30-0, and then whine when his first death comes from some idiot with the Rocket Launcher.
Now if only the US had made more of the 105mm T8 (An American AT gun that took influence from the German PaK 43/41) and used on some tanks. Like re-arming the T32 heavy tank with the 105mm T8, then calling it the T32E2. Or a casemate TD based on the Pershing chassis that looks like a Jagdpanther that was armed with the 105mm T8.

The 6 pounder in simulator battles is like knife through butter, cold knife on cold butter, but butter nonetheless
The grunt and elite sound effects were EXCEPTIONAL in this one
Churchill III had 3 men turret with 6 pounder on ø1372mm turret ring. So if US would have adopted 6 pounder for more widespread tank use, I wouldn't be surprised if they could squeeze it onto M5 Stuart(ø1187mm if I recall right? Just use fake turret ring like Comet does, plus you would have only 2 crewmembers in turret anyway)
