  • The IKV 73 in War Thunder is an event vehicle available through Operation S.U.M.M.E.R that is going on right now.
    The IKV 73 is a Swedish Premium Medium Tank. It's got a very slow velocity 75mm cannon, less armour on the sides than a cheap IKEA desk but it's pretty mobile.
    This Swedish Tank sits at 3.0 and is practically identical to the tech tree varient, the EH. If I was to name this tank, I'd call it the MEH. The IKV73 falls victim to Gaijin's BR system. I don't think it's a good enough tank to warrant its 3.0 BR and even at 2.7 it could still struggle, specifically in uptiers.

  • @csgaming8101
    @csgaming8101 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Interesting fact: the 13.2 mm machine guns are good because of HE filler. HE filler is not common below 20 mm (mg 151, hispano) but the Swedish are somehow able to make filler rounds to their machine guns, so it's basically like firing Minengeschoss shells from machine guns. After the war, when they bought p51s, pilots are liked the performance of the mustang, but not so much the 50.cals, because they are a step back compared to the
    13mm-s.

    Pretty sure you'd enjoy the IKV 73 a lot more in arcade. The Strv m/42 EH is really fun in arcade and frontal bounces a fair amount of enemy shells at that BR. Just have to remember to start with the APBC round and finish off the target with the APHE once they're disabled enough to get an easy side shot.
    I agree it is somewhat underwhelming in general though. I much prefer playing the Strv m/41 S-II. It's much more durable in the battle rating and can scout.

    The Swedish 13.2mm guns fire HE shells. So they're akin to a smaller size 20mm autocannon. They have a good rate of fire as well. They're recorded being very effective against aircraft. Only a few hits were usually enough to take out normal size fighters from what the tests show.

    I think both the EH and the Ikv 73 should be 2.7 at least. maybe even 2.3 when compared to the Lee or Pz III J1 or T-127. They're quite similar to the T-28E. The main difference being slightly better penetration with the solid shot round and better mobility, but worse survivability and worse reload rate.
    We desperately need the Pvkv III and IV.

And IF you pen, the shells do nothing. Not sure what they did to the AP rounds, but I remember the British AP being much more reliable.

      ​@@kirishima638 That might be true for the real ones. But there is no excuse for them to be bad in a video game. It was their decision to give them the BRs and the ammo selection they have. Yes give tanks more pen, better reload or more horsepower (within reason ofc) if it makes them more fun or playable at least. I know there would be people screaming again, that this wouldn't be realistic. Because they still think WT is a realistic tank sim and not an arcade game. But I would choose gameplay over realism everyday.

If you have a fast vehicle, you can cap first, get in and out of engagements quickly and run circles around everyone else. Even if you have a shit gun, you can make it work.
      That's why you have BT-5s, M22s, R3s, M18s and Pumas in every battle at every tier and they always do well. All other vehicles exist to be fed upon.
