E 75 against weaknesses. Guide to breaking through E75

Heavy Tank E-75 from German history. Excellent in its maneuverability and also has excellent armor. The tank is good both in attack on the first line and can stand up for itself in defense. Model E-75 is the predecessor model of the mighty E-100.

Historical facts of E75

As the Series E is known German tanks was only on papers, not a single prototype was created, it follows that not a single photograph was taken either. In the Ministry of Armaments of the 3rd Reich in 1942, a department was formed, which was tasked with developing the latest tanks"Series E". We will talk about the E-75, it was designed as a heavy tank with a net weight of 75-80 tons. Its purpose was to replace the Tiger ll, since it was not reliable in combat, its production was very difficult and time-consuming. According to the Ministry's estimates, the E-75 was supposed to be put on the assembly line in 1945, but it remained only in sketches.

E75 guide

The E 75 is a classic of German heavy equipment. The E75 has excellent, strong armor, its gun has good accuracy, shot power, and the combat vehicle has a high silhouette. In addition to all this, there is weak armor on the sides and stern; the result is an updated, rich Tiger II.

A fully upgraded E 75 proves to be an excellent heavy tank that can work wonders on the battlefield. Distinctive feature E75 from others heavy tanks This is the chassis. As is already known, the heavy tanks of the Germans were nicknamed slow-moving tanks, since they maximum speed 40 km/h, but despite this it shows excellent acceleration dynamics, the E75, with a 100% studied crew, shows good results when turning on various soils. It should also be noted that the tank has good survivability of 1920 HP.

The combat vehicle has excellent accuracy and excellent aiming, but the damage is relatively low compared to its counterparts per shot, until the top 128 mm gun is installed. But it has one drawback: the top gun has a low rate of fire. On a tank, the turret showed itself to be good, excellent armor, but the turret traverse speed indicator is less speed rotation of the hull, because of this, when the tank maneuvers, its sight is slowly aimed at the enemy.

If all crew members have several perks, then it is better to level up the “Combat Brotherhood” skill for absolutely everyone.

E75 equipment

Selection of equipment for E75:
Gun rammer- unchanged vehicle equipment in WoT, provides an advantage in reloading weapons and increasing DPM;
Vertical stabilizer– will help reduce the aiming circle by 20% while moving, and when stationary it will speed up the aiming circle of the gun, increasing dominance over opponents while simultaneously fighting with superior enemy forces.
Improved ventilation- the equipment will improve accuracy, rate of fire, hull rotation, of course there is an alternative, installing a super-heavy anti-fragmentation lining, which will increase your life expectancy in the game in the event of an artillery strike.

Equipment for equipment is standard, you can do without premium equipment:

Fire extinguisher – mainly used to extinguish fuel tanks;
Repair kit – necessary for repairing damaged equipment;
First aid kit - designed to treat incapacitated crew members.

25 armor-piercing shells;
8 armor-piercing sabot shells (just in case);
3 high-explosive fragmentation ones for firing at lightly armored tanks and for shooting down a grapple.

Conclusion on the E75 tank

Advantages of E75:

— Good dynamics of acceleration up to 40 km/h compared to the E-100 whose speed is 30 km/h;
— Excellent armor for the frontal part of 160 mm and the top turret of the tank 252/160/160;
— Excellent visibility of 400 meters, compared to “Tigr ll” visibility of 380 m;
— Powerful top gun 128 mm with damage 490/490/630 Hp.

Disadvantages of E75:

— High silhouette and visibility compared to its predecessor;
— Weak side armoring 120 mm;
— Visible tendency to damage internal equipment and crew;
— Long gun reload time 15.7 seconds;
— Low rotation speed of the top turret;

The E75 tank is excellently balanced, has excellent damage and armor on the front of the tank and turret, has good maneuverability and an elevated silhouette. Having studied the E75's shortcomings and strengths, in battle you can become a team leader and fight alone against an enemy that outnumbers you.

Since so many players believe that the German TT branch is simply fat and difficult to penetrate (although this is not the case), I decided to write a guide about ways breaking through e75.

The E75 is a heavy tank with unusually good turning and penetration. I myself recently switched to this tank on the E100.

When the second branch of German heavyweights was introduced, a cloud of topics appeared on the forum from players, where they screamed that there was no balance and the world was not fair. The world is certainly not fair, but there is balance.

Penetration zones e75 WoT

It must be said right away that the tank is quite strong and difficult to penetrate tanks up to level 8 (9). Of course, in this situation, tanks stand alone, but they often ricochet. When I played on this tank, I did not pay attention to tanks and tanks up to 7 level (unless, of course, you were standing stern to them).

Frontal armor penetration zones

If you play on a tank up to level 9 inclusive, then at long distances it is not wise to shoot 75 head-on. You will be able to get through, but not often.

At close range we shoot at the NBL (lower armor plate) in a completely standard manner.

Let's see vulnerabilities of the E75 tank.

If your goal is to cause damage, then shoot at the NBL. In other places there is a high chance of damage without damage.

The tracks are easily knocked down by almost everyone. As you can see in the diagram, the most profitable thing will be to kill the driver.

E75 side armor penetration zones

The situation with crits is not the best for us. If we damage the turning mechanism, it will not give us much, because the E75 turns well on the harp. Damage the radio or tanks special meaning It also doesn’t. In general, shoot for damage.

E75 stern penetration locations

In fact, I don’t really understand why I’m writing this point. Because the feed of all tanks is the most vulnerable spot and gets through almost everyone. If you want to ruin the life of the enemy E75 as much as possible, then shoot at the fuel tanks.

Author's opinion about the E75 heavy tank

When I played on this tank, I realized that this is the BEST TT among the ninth ones. Very well balanced. The player’s capabilities on it are not limited. The tank can be quickly transferred from one part of the map to another. If you have direct hands and a sense of rhythm of knowledge of the places where tanks will be penetrated as well as the general gameplay, the tank truly becomes the king of the map. On many tanks, it happens that there is a bias towards armor, but the gun is weak, in some places there is little armor, but the gun is strong. And our experimental one is the golden mean. Moreover, it leads to a truly wonderful tank E100. By the way, 100 has similar penetration points, excluding the tower.

Before I talk more about it, let's take a look at its TTX

Upgrading modules.

You should upgrade the modules for this tank in the following sequence:
1. First of all we install modules already researched on the predecessors of our tank: the top FuG 12 radio station and the 10.5 cm KwK 46 L/68 gun;
2. Further We research and install the top-end suspension E 75 verstärkteketten (it will allow us to install other top-end modules and improve the mobility of our tank);
3. Then top turret E 75 Ausf. B (unlike, the top turret is impenetrable, moreover, it will add a few units of strength, and will also allow you to install a top gun);
4. Next We research and install the top gun 12.8 cm KwK 44 L/55 (this gun will allow you to become the “king of randomness” when you get to the top);
5. And finally, the top-end Maybach HL 295 Ausf engine. A (it will significantly improve the comfort of playing on your tank).
Congratulations! You've made your E-75 top-notch!

Let's move on to battle tactics.

1.It's not difficult to fight against medium tanks. We have an advantage in armor, weight, safety margin, we have a powerful weapon that will not leave any medium tank any chance. In addition, the enemy will not be able to overwhelm us, thanks to the excellent turning speed of the chassis. In general, anyone medium tank will regret running into you. The main thing when fighting a medium tank is to keep your forehead towards it. Then the enemy will only have to run or hide from you, otherwise he will have to work a miracle to defeat you.

2. It is much more difficult to fight against heavy tanks, I would even say that these are the main opponents of our tank. But still, we have some advantages: our tank has excellent frontal armor, a powerful gun, good dynamics, and a slight advantage in safety margin. Therefore, most likely, it will be harder for the enemy to fight against you than for you to fight against him. Also, when fighting with heavy tanks, you should try to “clinch”; in a clinch you become a tank that is difficult to penetrate for any enemy, since he does not see the lower armor plate, and the upper armor plate is very difficult to penetrate. But do not forget that the enemy can shoot you through the hatch, which is located on the left side of your tower. Then you need to try to cover the hatch with your gun (lift it up) or rotate the turret left and right, so it will be very difficult for the enemy to get into your hatch. And if you are fighting on long distance, then it is advisable to find a shelter that will hide your lower armor plate. This way you can calmly fire at the enemy, and it will be unrealistically difficult for him to penetrate the “pike nose” and the turret. And so, as you understand, the E 75 can easily emerge victorious from a battle with heavy tanks.

3. It’s also not easy to fight against, since they have powerful weapons that even our armor is not afraid of. Therefore, you need to try to get into the stern of the PT in any way: for example, knock down a caterpillar, or go around it around a building (if you are in a city or near a house), a stone or some other object. But it is not advisable to climb the PT yourself. It is better to wait for the help of an ally. Together, you can disassemble any tank without losing a single unit of strength. In general, it is advisable to fight against tank destroyers not in open areas, where you can come up with many ways to deal with them.

4. Against self-propelled artillery installations fighting is very easy. Our powerful weapon, which has enormous damage, will leave no chance for any artillery (all artillery for our gun is almost always one-shot, and if you shoot, the probability of destroying the artillery with one shot is 100%!). But, despite this, you should not get out to meet the artillery (there is a risk of getting a good “splash”), it is better to act in the same way as with the AT, because the slightest unit of strength will be very useful to you in battle. You can also take advantage of an unexpected appearance (the artillery will not have time to quickly converge and hit you), or stick out only the tower from behind the hill and deliver a crushing shot at the enemy (it will be difficult for the artillery to hit a small tower sticking out from behind the hill).

1. Thanks to good vertical aiming angles you can try. This will give you a huge advantage in battle, since your tower is well armored and it will be very difficult for the enemy to penetrate it. I'm sure you'll like this tactic.

2. Thanks to good side armor, you can . You show your side from behind a building (a stone or some other object) at a large angle to the enemy (while hiding your armor plate), drive back a little, sticking out the turret, fire a shot at the enemy and move back to the building. What's the point of this technique? On the one hand, you simply crawl out from behind the building, exchange shots with the enemy and hide back... But the principle of this technique is that the enemy cannot penetrate your side at such a large angle. This means that you get out, fire a shot without losing a single unit of strength, and hide back.
You need to play with this tactic something like this:

3. Another tactic that you should also like is this. You expose your body parts (forehead and side) to the enemy at large angles, so it will be much harder for him to penetrate you. This tactic is preferred by most professional players as it can be very effective in combat (if used correctly of course). When placed in a diamond shape, even the lower armor plate becomes very difficult to penetrate.

4. In close combat, the following tactics will be very useful to you: if you do not have any cover, then try to wiggle your body left and right (or, as I call it, “dance”). This is very effective method, since it will be very difficult for the enemy to target a vulnerable spot, hit it and penetrate it.

Now I will tell you about the advantages and disadvantages of the E 75 tank.

Let's start with the advantages:
- excellent overview;
- good dynamics;
- powerful weapon;
- excellent booking;
- large margin of safety.
Now let's move on to the disadvantages:
- greater visibility;
- frequent crits of modules and crew;
- a large turret on the hatch (it’s easy to break through in a clinch);
- low traverse speed of the top turret;
- frequent fires when a shell hits the lower armor plate (due to the location of the transmission in the frontal part of the hull of our tank).

Additional modules

1) Since the E 75 has a long convergence, you need to set vertical stabilizer. The stabilizer reduces dispersion when the tank moves and reduces the time it takes to align.

2) Since our tank has a long gun reload, you need to install gun rammer. It will significantly reduce the loading time of the projectile.

3) Improved ventilation it won't hurt either. It adds +5% to all skills and abilities of each crew member, and most importantly, it reduces the gun reload and aiming time.
Additional modules will be very useful to you in battle, and you will not regret purchasing them.

Equipment.

1) You must have in battle auto or manual fire extinguisher, since the tank has weak fuel tanks, and the likelihood of a fire is high!

2) Big or small repair kit– to repair damaged modules.

3) Big or small first aid kit– to treat a shell-shocked crew member.

Every experienced player knows that going into battle without equipment is risky. Since it is impossible to play normally with a shell-shocked gunner or with a damaged ammunition rack. Well, a fire can damage many modules. Therefore, every self-respecting tanker is obliged to install equipment!

Ammunition.

1) 30 ;
2) 3 armor-piercing sub-caliber projectile(just in case);
3) And 3 high-explosive fragmentation the projectile is useful for shooting at weakly armored opponents (light tanks, artillery).

Upgrading the crew.

In total, the E-75 has five crew members:
1) commander;
2) driver;
3) gunner;
4) loader;
5) radio operator.

First perk.
1. Increase the commander’s “sixth sense.” This skill will allow you to know whether the enemy sees you or not;
2. Upgrade the “repair” perk for the rest of the crew. This skill will allow you to quickly repair a destroyed module (for example, a downed track or a damaged gun). This is very important for a heavy tank!

Second perk.
1. The commander should study “repair” so that the repair of the damaged module is very fast;
2. The driver-mechanic should master the “king of off-road” skill. Thanks to it, the tank will become a little more maneuverable, which is necessary for our E 75;
3. The gunner needs to learn the “sniper” skill. A gunner with this skill will inflict critical damage on the enemy more often;
4. The loader can pump in a “non-contact ammo rack”. This skill will increase the durability of the ammunition rack. This way the enemy will have less chance of damaging you;
5. The radio operator must study “radio interception”. This perk will allow him to increase his vision range.

Third perk.
All crew members pump in " the Brotherhood of War" This skill will reduce the reload time of the gun and increase the aiming speed.
Remember:
If you want to learn the “combat brotherhood” skill, you must equip all crew members with it. Learning this skill by multiple crew members will not produce the desired changes.

Fourth perk.
1. The “jack of all trades” skill will allow the commander to replace wounded crew members in battle;
2. The driver needs to learn the “smooth ride” skill. This skill will reduce the spread when the tank moves, allowing you to shoot on the move;
3. It would also be a good idea for the gunner to learn the “smooth turret rotation” perk. It will reduce spread when turning the turret;
4. In battle, it won’t hurt if the loader has the “desperate” skill. This perk will allow you to speed up gun reloading if the tank has less than 10% health;
5. The radio operator will learn the “repeater” skill. This perk will increase the communication range of allied tanks;

Fifth perk.
1. The commander should learn the “eagle eye” perk, this will again increase the viewing range;
2. A driver can learn the “virtuoso” skill. Thanks to this skill, our tank will turn a little faster;
3. The gunner can learn the “grudge” skill. This will allow you to see the enemy in your crosshairs for an additional two seconds;
4. It would not hurt the loader to master the “intuition” skill. This skill creates the possibility that, when changing the type of projectile, the desired one is already loaded. This perk will be useful to you if, for example, you urgently need to load a gold shell instead of an armor-piercing one.
5. The radio operator can learn the “inventor” skill. This perk can be useful, for example, if your walkie-talkie is broken.
I won’t say further what perks to download. Since you will need to spend a lot of time to level up the fifth perk; and if you still upgraded the fifth perk, then further choose the skills in your opinion, since all the most important ones have already been upgraded.

Conclusion.

The E-75 is an excellent tank, with good armor, a powerful gun and good mobility. It is significantly better than its classmates. The E-75 should appeal to fans of heavy tanks. It has a lot of advantages and very few disadvantages. For E-75, dealing with even a level ten enemy is not a problem! This tank is intended for both active (thanks to its excellent armor, powerful gun and good mobility) and defensive (thanks to its armor, large margin of safety and gun).
This concludes my guide. Thank you for your attention. Good luck on the battlefields!
