World of tanks 8.5 M60 Patton current stats and armour values.

Something makes me think the M60 is the least expected of the coming special Tier 10 tanks. Its quite similar to the M48 Patton - nothing new to see here except the IF searchlight on the turret.

I suppose that's not so bad actually - nobody will be disappointed - we just get another Patton tank with very similar behavior  A bit less hull armour, a bit more accurate gun with a tenth of a second faster aiming. All in all nothing new here, unlike the Magic Pancake Object 907 tank and the VK7201 K Fail Lowe. On the other hand the tank won't have any noticeable flaws like the above mentioned two - one being a rear turreted German heavy that got its armour nerfed already, and the other being a tier 10 medium tank that has only 220 penetration. 1 extra tier 10 is always good when Clan Wars come around. 

World of tanks 8.5 Soviet tier 10 tank - Object 907

So, the Object 907 is finally revealed to the wider public.

Armour wise the pancake tank as its starting to get known, isn't that bad - the UFP is very well sloped, better than on the T62A for sure. The turret however is lacking - thickest parts are 228 mm which might not be enough to keep the tank safe. The tank has 2000 hit points and it looks juuust a bit more maneuverable than the T62A. Not much, just a tiny bit. Whether thats true remains to be seen.




















However, its not all a bed of roses. The gun is the same as in the T62A - the 100mm D-54TS. HOWEVER, the Object 907 has no APCR ammo - its has to use normal AP. That leaves you with barely 219 penetration - same as the T54. Needless to say that's not enough for the tank to be an effective tier 10. Aim time and accuracy are a bit lower too. I'm not sure if its a mistake - the other two T-10s the VK7201 and the M60 Patton both have proper tier 10 guns. If its not the tank will be at a a disadvantage in Random fights, though it might be used as a T62A replacement in Clan wars when the T62s are locked.
