They have some of the largest horizontal gun arcs, most noticeable in the M53/55, which allows them to cover large parts of the battlefield without moving the hull. It can be worthwhile to play both lines simultaneously in order to unlock guns as early as possible.Īmerican self propelled guns are all about firepower, splash radius, and wide arcs of gun traversal. The two american tank destroyer lines often share guns. Both lines are very good for supporting the team by filling very different roles in the battle order. The non-turreted line is more specialized, exchanging mobility for armor or vice-versa depending on tier. The turreted TD line remains versatile, exchanging armor for mobility and versatility, before trending more towards heavy tanks with larger guns in the high tiers.

At low tiers, they are initially mobile with varied and powerful gun selection before eventually splitting into two branches: one with turrets and one mostly without turrets. These are generally defensive or supporting positions, that allow them to use terrain to avoid damage from the front, while at the same time covering their own flanks from fire.Īmerican tank destroyers have a variety of playing styles. American heavies exploit their versatility to avoid certain pitfalls of specialization, and can make use of more varied types of cover than other nations. Good commanders position their tank to hide the weak spots and force the enemy to fire at the strongest points of the armor. Often they carry guns that are more balanced than comparable heavy tanks and have good power-to-weight ratios. At Tier 9 The American Heavy tank change from having Light Hull Armor to a more heavily armored variant and has an 'Eggshell Type' Hull which usually offers greater protection compared to it's predecessors/ They have excellent gun depression and from tier 7, are ideal for hull-down tactics.

When in a platoon of other American medium tanks of the same tier, it can engage and destroy the toughest of targets.Īmerican heavy tanks have generally light hull armor all-round (Until Tier 9) but always have a few areas of extreme thickness, mainly in the front turret. American mediums tend to play the role of support tanks more often compared to other mediums, but are perfectly capable of operating on their own merits as well. American mediums boast above average view range with some being best in their tiers. As well as this, they can deliver the firepower when needed and have decent accuracy on the move - combined with gun depression and decent turret armor, this makes them rather survivable while hull-down and comfortable to play. They are able to both move quickly, do spotting, and take some damage. The line splits into two at tier 5.Īmerican medium tanks are perfect for adaptive strategies and they are generally and more commonly referred to as 'Jack Of All Trades'. American lights are relatively large targets and can lack in armour. Their most notable feature is their good view ranges, top speeds (in the Chaffee line), and high rate of fire (which can help in a brawl).

They are a fairly easy-to-play and an easily understandable nation in comparison with other nations, but hard to master and use them to their full potential.Īmerican light tanks tanks tend to be more adaptable in combat situations than other lights, and at higher tiers can fulfill the roles of scout and flanker very well. In miscellany, American vehicles tend to be larger than their counterparts, and tend to share many components such as guns, radios and engines, making research for multiple lines easy. American guns rarely have stellar penetration values, accuracy, or damage per shell for their tier, instead preferring rapid reload times. However, they tend to perform well hull down, have good view range, and have good terrain resistance. Generally speaking, American vehicles are adequate in most roles, and they are generally 'Jack Of All Trades' but lack a specialization. Overall, tanks from the USA faction are exceptionally versatile, sacrificing the advantage of specialization in certain fields so as to perform adequately in any situation. Armored vehicles and gun carriers manufactured and fielded by the United States of America and other North American nations such as Canada.
