@CrazyRider75110 жыл бұрын
Agree, if they can hit the lil coupola on the stock turret they will and that enables some T7 tanks to simply bypass your armour, not always but it happens, also getting flanked by lower tiers, if you don't turn the stock turret around in time that 130mm won't always stop those shots 150mm is a lot better. Oh and with the research I prefered to get 107mm 1st, tracks next, turret 3rd and engine last. It's slow anyway and I'm fine with it being a little bit slower for a while till I fully max out everything I need to stop the enemy fire.
@Oyamada1310 жыл бұрын
I think in Jingles' ideology, having the upgraded 107mm makes you a bit more useful than the 122mm that can barely pen half of T9 and most of T10 tanks. Having the best gun of the tank will help the team more than being a survivor but still can't pen anything. In general MMO rule of thumb, offensive upgrades/skills first before defensive upgrades/skills. In a team-based game, the team expect you to deal as much damage as you can before you die. :)
@LaatiMafia10 жыл бұрын
The 122mm can pen quite a lot, even without gold ammo.
@Oyamada1310 жыл бұрын
No. only about half in T9 and almost none in T10. The top 122mm for the KV-4 is the same gun as the KV-3. The effective penetration is 175mm (218mm for gold). Not good enough in T10 match (and KV-3 is T7 so they never saw T10 match too). The top 107mm have more pen than the top 122mm. This is why it is best to get the 107mm to make yourself useful than just side-scaping and doing no damage at T9 and T10. Good luck fighting T10 tank though. They are tough nut to crack with a 107mm anyway (but the gold will help you that have 289mm pen), depending how good the opponent is and how knowledgeable you are with weakpoints. lol
@CrazyRider75110 жыл бұрын

jingles a couple things you are forgetting about the second turret is that it increases your overall HP, lowers the pathetic reload time on that top gun, and also with the super heavy spall taken into effect, it increases the turret armor vs HE by quite a significant margin, which people (including many arty players) WILL spam at you. the shape of the tumor turret also can become a shot trap for low arc trajectory artillery, making it harder for them to hit the flat top of your turret and actually aiding you by absorbing the shell. it's true that it will depend a lot on playstyle and equipment loadout but i think getting the second turret before the engine upgrade (or even tracks if you don't mind mounting enhanced suspension) can be a good decision down the grind road, imo.

I am a heavy tank driver, but KV 4 was a massive letdown (same as Tiger 2, as everyone and their mother can go through its turret), 100 tons of armor rendered useless by getting penetrated over and over into the mini-turret or the huge lower plate by equivalent and higher tiers. If you side-scrape, the mini-turret is so wide, that wiggling the turret and tank slightly does not make the enemy miss it. Even though my win rate in it is 56% at 800 avg experience, I was not enjoying the armour and so I sold it after getting the ST-I. While I was playing the KV4, one of my friends came over and asked about it, I said: "This is the famous KV Fortress, it is almost impenetrable." He asked: "So where can it be penetrated?" I gave it a thought, and to my surprise, started naming: "Mini-turret at the top, lower frontal plate, MG port, driver viewport, and, of course, sides and rear". He replied: "Well, that is basically everywhere, no?". It eventually struck me that he was not too wrong. I am having now a good time with E75 and ST-I. Btw, Jingles, the name is ST-EYE, not ST-ONE :)

I would highly recommend using a super heavy spall liner with the kv-4. I know that vents, rammer, and laying drive is very important to most Russian tanks, especially a kv'4, but for a tank the relies on armor more than anything and spends A LOT of time tracked and immobilized for arty to shoot at, a super heavy spall liner is definitely worth the sacrifice of the laying drive in my opinion. I know that some people may not agreed and, there are plenty of counter arguments that i even agree with but, for this tank spall liner is almost a must.

One thing worth noting about the KV-4's turrets: The stock turret has another miniturret on the top. Unlike the upgraded turret, however, this miniturret is a weakspot (compared to the rest of the armor). I found going for the top turret before the engine worked better, but maybe that was just me.

Sir Jingles - just a humble suggestion: Remind players that using the first turret ALSO means having a lower available HP healthpool (I believe that all tanks with 2nd turrets have 2 HP pools - and that means that the KV-4 is weaker with the 1st turret in terms of number of penetrating shots it can take).

Question for you Jingles. Do you only run your KV-4 with the top turret? I have swapped back between the two several times and found the stock turret is penetrated much less often, for my games anyways. Looking over the stats and how each affects the tank, the upgraded turret is heavier which poorly affects the pwr/wight ratio. It seems to only provide an additional 50hp or so to your max HP, which at those higher tiers doesn't really seem to matter when you face guns that easily shell out hundreds of damage. It seems to me, the upgraded turret makes for an easier target for enemy tanks as well. Just curious to your opinion on the pros an cons of each turret. And, thanks for the awesome videos btw.

i love how the kv-4 can be angled a surprising amount thanks to the 150mm of side armour which is only 35mm less than the maus side armour and i think it has the same side armour (without the spaced armour) as the is-7. the tiger 2 is also great and can be troll and i do prefer the gun on it as well as the better gun depression. the gun depression on the kv-4 is terrible by tier 8 standards and because its slow as hell that makes it difficult to work with the gun depression.
@RedRocky5410 жыл бұрын
Sadly however the turret cheeks of the Tiger 2 can be penetrated at range, head-on, with a gun that only has 160mm of penetration. And then there is the commander's tumor on the top, and the paper lower glacis that anything can seem to pen no matter how much I angle it. It can't really side-scrape consistently thanks to it's weak 80mm of side armor outclassed by tier 6 heavies like the T-150. And then since most tier 7s and tier 8s have around 200 pen or more the 185mm of armor on the front of the turret is relatively useless. Furthermore most tier 9s can easily penetrate the upper glacis unless you angle it a fair amount, so it's armor working really just depends on luck or lack of skill.
@15DEAN199510 жыл бұрын
RedRocky54 you need to be extremely careful side scraping the tiger 2 but the gun is devastating when it is allowed to unload on a target. with my set up it had an 8.77 second reload. also where ever you can you should hide the lower glaicais which you cant always do but when you can it can be a real bitch to pen for example there are some great positions for this on himmelsdorf. also the turret is actually really strong i tend too not take shots at the turret of the tiger 2 because if you hit the mantlet the spaced armour will absorb the shot (except in rare cases like i once had an isu-152 put a shot straight through that at point blank range killing my gunner and the gun itself. i will say something though take advantage of the fantastic gun and use it in long range engagements where possible to maximize the chances of bouncing shells.

You must let the other do the dirty work most of the time sadly, yes if you sidescrape you can and will bounce a shitload of shells but out in the open you are toast to to the conveniently placed phosforus storage behind the lower plate.

Triple KV-4 platoons are quite a wonderful thing. Especially if your pubs clue in to let us take the hits. Otherwise the KV-4 platoons very well with glass cannons, giving them a large hunk of mobile cover to hide behind.

Don't forget jingles the turret also adds HP and better reload times so i think it's a bit more important that you say :)

And the stock turret has a really weak blob on the top unlike the upgraded one!

The funniest thing was the Super Pershing running out of gold ammo. Here in North America a Super Pershing runs out of gold ammo that means he is out of all ammo. Does the European server not have the same problem we have in North America concerning gold spamming?

one of my favorite things to do in the vk30.01d is to side scrap against teir7 heavys and just watch them bounce all day you do it to some extent on the 30.02 but the armor values are the same and your fighting tier 8s witch can over match the angle of the armor

Jingles, is there any way you can show what to do when your opponent is loading HEAT ammo? Angling and sidescraping is great, as is the raw thickness of armor and making sure it's angled properly. But HEAT ammo seems to just go right through it anyways because the game still views it as a flat piece of armor.

Hi, I'm a new KV5 driver & just wanted to say thanks for a really informative video! There are enough similarities between the two for me to take away a lot!! Cheers :-)

You want to reverse side scrape in that.

I decided to rebut my KV3 and grind the KV4 because it's only 50K. Xp. I had already grinded the IS heavy line. So I easily and quickly got the XP for it, but when I bought it, I realized why it was so cheap. Oh the upgrade tree, the upgrade tree. Of course I had all the guns except the final 107mm. I first upgraded the tracks, then the turret because of the stock turret has a soft weak spot on top, unlike the upgraded one. So now I have to get the final engine and gun. I rarely make a profit on it right now, because of the 122mm guns 175 pen and the shells are expensive and you aren't guaranteed a penetration, so I carry 4 APCR, even then I can't pen an enemy KV 4s lower plate easily. When it works, it's great though.

I guess it is worth adding that the stock turret is nearly 10 tons lighter. Not sure how much that matters in speed, though, that tank is not going to be fast regardless.

their are very few instances where i will load premium ammo, KV4 doesn't normal require me to do so, not to mention i carry very little gold ammo on most of my tanks

The KV’s all have one weakness at the front, it’s the part that is flat behind the sloped amour plate

How does Jingles see in the bottom left what ammo types the enemies are using? Is it a crew skill? An XVM thing? A replay thing?

Oh, Jingles. I can't wait for you to have nerdgasms when you'll get your hands on a fully equipped & pimped ST-I. Really expecting that review to be awesome. Hell, who needs an IS-4 when the ST-I is so much better?! Meanwhile, enjoy your Steel Wall sponge aka KV-4! Make sure you get at least 15k potential damage received in a game before selling it, just because the feeling of the enemy wasting so many shots on the KV-4 side armor is GLORIOUS (yes, even Jagd E-100 will have a very hard time penning a sidescraping KV-4)

And this is why I'm using the howitzer on my ISU-152 while farming for the BL-10, and not any of the 175mm pen. guns.

The KV-4 and really any other heavy armored tank would be so much more fun and worth driving with if premium shells weren't in the game. Nevertheless I've had my share of fun with both the KV-3/4, ST-I and the IS-4. The IS-4 is also really fun to sidescrape with.

KV-4 is an awesome heavy tank, like it a lot myself. The only disadvantage is of course Wargaming's tendency to give a tank great armour and then give it a weakspot the size of a PzII somewhere. In the KV4's case that ugly mini-turret on the top so everyone shoots that and completely circumvents the actual armour. - Looking forward to the ST-I, that one has a much smaller weakspot.

I have the KV-3 and I am currently researching the KV-4. I absolutely loved the T-150, I still play it daily, and find the KV-3 to be pretty fun as well, but the engines on the KV-3 are really frustrating. The first engine upgrade for the KV-3 costs 11k experience, and provides no increase in horsepower or reduction in fire chance. This seems ridiculous, and the only advantage I have heard of over the stock engine, is that the upgraded engine is slightly harder to damage. Does anyone else think that this engine is only there to slow down your progression of making the the tank elite? Does it have some kind of very important historical significance? (I doubt it)

Jingles I disagree that tanks cannot be killed by willpower.On Warthunder, I was destroyed by a KV-1 (while in an angled Tiger I) because the shell hit my barrel, bounced 90 degrees onto my gunner's optics and proceeded to penetrate and detonate into shrapnel at the exact spot where it killed all of my crew. No, I still don't believe it.
