The bigger gun required a bigger turret and turret ring to absorb the higher recoil. Experimental trials showed that the T-55 was inherently unsuited to mount the larger new cannon, and work therefore began on a new tank. It was decided to up-gun the T-55 with a 115 mm smoothbore cannon, capable of firing APFSDS rounds. While 100 mm HEAT ammo could have accomplished the task, they were considerably more expensive and required more training of tank crews for proper use. T-62 main_battle tank laying a smokescreenīy the late 1950s, Soviet commanders realized that the T-55's 100 mm gun was incapable of penetrating the frontal armor of newer Western tanks like the Centurion and M48 Patton with standard armor-piercing shells.

In comparison to its two 'sister tanks' the T-62a has the strongest turret and best gun handling, including excellent dispersion while shooting on the move. It should be noted that it's vastly superior to even the Tier 8 dedicated scouts in this role, and only exceeded by the BatChat.

On top of that, with its excellent camo, mobility, and view range, it's a very workable passive scout, and often times, providing vision for the team is what wins games. For example, on city maps, try to find a way around so you can start firing at the enemy's rear armor before they have time to react, essentially assuring you'll get 2 or more shots in before the enemy has a chance to shoot back. Some examples of this would include the road to the hill on Mines, where it's possible to cover only your hull while your strong turret remains exposed and your very high rate of fire, high DPM gun can stay in the fight.įor situations where you can't hull down, look for an opportunity to flank or scout since you have excellent camouflage and mobility. In order to make use of your new turret and hide your weaker hull, you need to start looking for strange spots to hull down in where you can both show as little of your tank as possible while not being on a hill too steep to use your gun depression. This makes hull down tactics viable, unlike the T-54, which suffered frequent turret penetrations. While it lost some hull armor, it gained a lot of turret armor. The T-62A has a very similar play style to its predecessor, the T-54.

Poor gun depression greatly limits good hull down positions to make good use of the turret's strong frontal armor.

Tied with the lowest alpha damage of all tier X mediums (same as the T-54/Obj.140).

Prone to engine fires and ammo rack damage.

Best "soft stats" out of any tier 10 tank which results in excellent mobility and on-the-move accuracy.

This tank may not be the fastest, best armed, or armored tier X medium tank, but it has the fastest rate of fire (1 round in less than every 6 seconds), great penetration, and can even outurn the fast T-50-2. The T-62A is not a front-line fighter, and is more suited to skirmishing tactics due to its weaker hull armour. However, the T-62A has better turret armor and the turret is located a little farther forward than the T-54. First, the T-54 is faster and has better hull armor compared to the T-62A. The T-62A is a similar tank to its predecessor, the T-54, but with some differences. Later modifications of the vehicle are still in service. The T-62 tank was mass-produced from 1961 through 1975, with a total of twenty thousand vehicles manufactured. In March 1962, mass production of the T-62A was discontinued. At the same time a variant, the T-62A, with a rifled gun was also deployed. In 1961, the T-62 tank with a smoothbore gun was deployed.
