LT-432 Review/Guide, Is It Worth It?
I review the LT-432, a tier 8 Russian premium light tank in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 10 Overlord and tier 9 Cliff battles.
The LT-432 was just released for sale and is the strongest tier 8 light tank by a significant margin. It has the same crew layout as the tier 10 T-100 LT and is therefore a good crew trainer for it.
Strengths and Weaknesses
+ Superb turret protection: 200mm effective, very bouncy
+ Superb camouflage: over 38 with BIA, Camo, and Vents
+ Superb frontal hull protection: ~160mm effective
+ Excellent gun handling and dispersion values
+ Excellent shell velocity
+ Small, flat profile
+ Good gun depression (-7), unusual for a Russian light
+ Good DPM (almost 2.1k base)
- Difficult to reach 445+m of view range without food due to lackluster view range (380m base). To get to 445m you need a skilled crew (BIA, Situational Awareness) paired with Optics and Vents
Recommended Equipment
1. Optics
2. Rammer
3. Vents
This tank doesn't need VStab given the excellent dispersion values.
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.
