SO after I [edited] up really bad and deleted my T-43 review (I saved it on a sticky note) here it is again!

Target DPG:1550

TL;DR: The T-43 is a true medium. It has great mobility and dpm at the cost of pen.

 

FirePower

Pros

+Good DPM

+Decent accuracy

+decent alpha

Cons

-Pen is lackluster

The gun gets the job done and fires relatively quickly, however the pen is worst in tier and is inadequate  tier 8 and 9s

 

Mobility

Pros

+Fast and accelerates quickly

+Turns well

Cons

-none

The mobility is best in tier allowing you to flank and pop up from unexpected angles. 

 

Survivability 

Pros

+Stronk Soviet gun mantlet 

+Soviet cloaking device 

Cons

-armor overall is bleh

The armor isn't that good  at all the only thing you can rely on is your camo. Your gun mantlet can provide some pretty trolly bounces will be penned by most tier 8+ tanks.

 

Equipment

1st:Rammer-To pew pew pew

2nd:Egl-For 360MLG snap shots

3rd:Optics-For spotting stuffs

 

Overall

The T-43 is a strong tank for it's tier. It can be compared to a Cromwell as it has the same play style, Use your mobility to flank around and get early lights. Late game you can do some serious work by driving around and pouncing on the weak lone heavies and tds. You can also play this tank as you would a T-34-85 that was given more speed and hp as that is what it pretty much is. Another interesting thing to note is that you are put top tier quite often because of the mm changes in the last patch. Overall the tank is a solid tank and I recommend it  if you can work around low pen.

 

Mandatory I carried hard yo pic

[Meows_really_heckin]

Only major downside is the pen other than that the tank is pretty good

 

[Meows_really_heckin]

I'll probably redo this Tom. To tired to think straight :/

I loved the t43... The side armor bounces everything when side scraping...

Hey skittles f off of commander he is cool now so stop alright

[Aivris]

I quite liked the T-43. It wasn't much of an upgrade from the T-34-85 but it was a fun medium nonetheless.

fo shame

[Augustus_Sohn]

I liked it a lot. I got the shocks though, so I could fire better while moving and doing the COD. So refreshing from the slow and stiff-necked TDs.

 

I have just started the T-44 and it is kind of rough. Gotta get the mods. Can't wait for the 54.

[EPICANDY0131]

-.- Equipment shouldn't be optics. Use vents. There's no point in long range spotting in Blitz. Just flank at close quarters and play peek-a-boom.

 

Loved my T-43. Back when the noobs were plentiful.

 

[CrimsonMG]

This guide needs more gifs, otherwise I r8 8/8.

[Meows_really_heckin]

lol crimson 

Honestly it's down to personal preference on optics vs vents with the increase of bigger maps optics are becoming more relevant imo
