Strengths
Look for a covered position that gives you side shots while teammates hold the enemy’s attention.

Battlefield Role
Use cover on the flanks to spot enemies and pick your shots. Use active scouting if your vehicle has it.
When to spawn
Bring it to scout from cover or to attack from a new angle after losing your first vehicle.
Common Mistakes
- Repeating the same peek. Once an enemy has your range, move to another angle before firing again. A second shot from the same opening is easier to anticipate.
- Firing without a retreat. Choose cover you can reach during the reload. Do not cross into an enemy firing lane just to finish a damaged target.
Survivability and Armor
- Crew
- 3 persons
Machine guns, autocannons and nearby explosions can be dangerous. Stay hidden and know how you will get out before firing.
Positioning
Use terrain to conceal the hull and solid cover to shield the sides. Expose the turret only long enough to fire, then retreat along the covered route.
Keep exposed sides and the fighting compartment behind cover. Check the incoming round and impact angle in Protection Analysis before relying on the armor.
Ammunition
Spike-LR II · ATGM (tandem)
Check seeker and guidance requirements before launch. Keep the target within the weapon’s tracking limits and retain cover for the engagement.
Default · APDS
- Weapon
- 30 mm MK 30-2/ABM cannon
Use against armor and aim for crew or critical modules. A penetration alone may leave the enemy able to return fire.
PMC287 · APFSDS
- Weapon
- 30 mm MK 30-2/ABM cannon
Use against armored vehicles. Aim through crew or critical modules; the narrow shot path makes placement matter.
MK266 · HEI-T
- Weapon
- 30 mm MK 30-2/ABM cannon
Use against exposed crews, aircraft where applicable and lightly protected targets. Avoid spending the shot on heavy frontal armor.
PMC308 · AHEAD
- Weapon
- 30 mm MK 30-2/ABM cannon
Use against exposed crews, aircraft where applicable and lightly protected targets. Avoid spending the shot on heavy frontal armor.
Ready Rack and Carry Load
- Maximum capacity
- 4 rounds
Carry enough for the route and resupply plan. A listed first-stage capacity alone does not establish a safe spawn load or prove that another rack is empty.
Mobility
- Maximum forward speed
- 103 km/h
- Maximum reverse speed
- 19 km/h
- Power-to-weight ratio
- 21.2 hp/t
- Engine power
- 815 hp
- Weight
- 38.5 t
Top speed is not cross-country pace. Check the reverse route before taking a firing position.
