EBR 90 Review/Guide, Countering Enemy Light Tanks
I review the Panhard EBR 90, a tier 9 French wheeled light tank in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 10 Empire's Border and Ruinberg battles.
The Panhard EBR 90 combines a low profile with superb mobility and camouflage. Its gun provides superb handling but is underwhelming relative to the other tier 9 lights.
Strengths and Weaknesses
+ Superb top speed (85)
+ Superb reverse speed (also 85)
+ Superb acceleration
+ Superb camouflage
+ Superb gun handling
+ Low profile
+ Large wheels provide protection against HE, HESH, and HEAT
+ High pen HE round (90)
- Very poor silver AP pen (185)
- Very low view range (330)
- Poor gun depression (-6)
- Paper armor
- Low HP (1150)
- Relatively low DPM
- As with all wheeled vehicles, can't turn in place and can be awkward in cramped areas
Recommended Equipment
1. Optics
2. Rammer
3. Vents
Errata
1. the premium ammo HEAT penetration is 230, not 240 as stated in the video
This video is part of my "Road to Unicum" series in which I share what I learned as I progressed towards account Unicum rating (top 1%) with silver ammo only. I talk through how I'm reading the battle as it unfolds and discuss key decisions and mistakes. My hope is that these videos meaningfully help players improve their gameplay.
