Object 292 But Only Using HE

Decal link: tinyurl.com/42thwzv3
War Thunder has added yet another experimental Soviet tank with a giant cannon, Object 292. The event grind for it is quite bad, so I wanted to record some gameplay to see if it was worth it. It's an MBT but I played it more like artillery.

[@Tanks.With.Teeth.Malloy]

I have compared this to the 279. Similar in rounds being the best in their class (APFSDS and APHE). Similar in weird gun calibers for their class (130 and 152) both have 10 second autloaders and are both fairly agile (279 is faster than people think). Only difference is that the 279s armor is more of a problem compared to the 292.

[@SilentButDudley]

The armor on it is pretty great lol. It’s better armored than the T80B.
