M4/T26: American Frankentank! - La Royale Dev Server - War Thunder
Today we take our first look at the La Royale dev server, starting off with the American Frankentank M4/T26, a combination of the M4A2 hull with the M26 Pershing turret, giving us an extremely effective 90mm armed Sherman tank! But is it as good as it cracks up to be and how will it likely perform?

00:00Hello everybody Toreno here and welcome to
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined3
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedrating of 6.0 and as you can see it's basically
00:26an M4A2 Sherman with an M26 turret, this did
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined7
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit's got the M26 turret it comes with the 90
00:49millimeter gun and we get most of the shells as on
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined11
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedone millimeter of penetration you've got the M82
01:16APCBC shell so 159 millimeters of penetration
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined15
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmillimeter machine gun in the coaxiall position.
01:39Now the turret rotation speed on this is the same
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined19
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedpowerful gun, I don't think the extra reload time
02:07is going to be a big deal breaker to be honest
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined23
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmantlet, so as you can see it generally seems to
02:29be around 150 100 millimeters plus even coming up
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined27
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedgot the variable thickness at the mantlet
02:57and definitely goes into 200 millimeters,
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined31
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedroof armor is also 25.4 millimeters.
03:19Now this somehow weighs the
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined36
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit's got the same crew got your driver and your
03:43machine gunner in the hole and then you've got
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined40
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedaway, nothing buggy about the gun so far I've
04:05definitely noticed on a few of the new vehicles
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined44
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhit it's about 450 millimeters I think
04:28yeah so we can't penetrate the whole at
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined48
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedshell it will do a lot better.
04:48We'll take you for a quick drive
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined52
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe only potential downside is the size but
05:11this doesn't really feel much bigger than
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined56
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedM4A2 hull so it's still going to suffer a little
05:35bit in regards to that it, would be better if it
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined60
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI quite like it I think it's a very good
06:01tank for between the M4A3 and T25 it's a good
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,820
undefined:undefined65
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbeen Toreno and I'll see you next time!
