17.2k GoldenEagle  8.0 years ago

The T-61 (P) MBT, a tank built for destroying Soviet tanks such as the T-54 and the IS tanks. Used by Auruna and Belka, it was used during the Aurun-Belkan Revolt where most T-61s are tested in actual combat, and it proved to be a better tank than the current T-54 and IS-3s that the Auruns and Belkans use during the revolt.

-Design-
Then design is based off the T-54 with the turret being larger, so that means it has better gun depression angles at -10° compared to the T-54 which has next to none. With the larger turret, it can fit guns of larger calibres and it doesn't take up space. It is one of the comfortable tanks to ride on.

-Name-
It is named after the city of Omsk where the Aurun-Belkan rebels' Main Stronghold is located.

-Reliability-
Unlike any other Soviet Tank in it's time, the T-61 is more reliable than the T-54 and other Soviet tanks. It has a reliable 18 cylinder diesel engine and it doesn't break down as much as the others. It can be easily fixed and can be used by any person with basic training about the tank.

-Mobility-
More agile than the T-54 and some western tanks, it can do 52Km/h with the speed limiter on, and 62 when off and it can do 28Km/h reverse. Hull traverse is 49°/s. And it's power-to-weight ratio is 21hp/t.

-Tactics-
This tank is made for hull-down, this is because of the Siberian landscape where Auruna and Belka are located, mountainous, hilly, and forested. With the optics and the tank's effective firing range of 3.1km and the 105, 120, or the 122mm's maximum firing range of 16000m. And this tank is a deadly sniper. Move to a position where you can't be spotted but you can fire out of.

-Cons-
The armor is sacrificed for the mobility of the tank
The turret is large, making it a big target than the T-54, but it has better turret armor
