''Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.''

=== Available ammunition ===


* '''BR-471''' - The default APHE shell with decent penetration of 205 mm on distance of 10 meters. Fairly slow muzzle velocity that's just shy of 800 m/s. Contains plenty of explosives (TNT equivalent of almost 250 g!)
* '''BR-471B''' - APHEBC shell. Is identical in terms of explosives, muzzle velocity to the BR-471. Ballistic cap lowers the decrease of penetration over distance, and slightly changes penetration chance on different angles.
* '''OF-471''' - HE shell. Contains 3.6 kg of TNT inside, which translates to 37 mm of penetration that is not dependent on angle or distance. Barely faster than APHE shells.
* '''BR-471D'''* - APCBC shell. Contains just over 190 g of TNT inside. Its muzzle velocity is 800 m/s, and has penetration value of 230 mm on distance of 10 meters.

''*Available only for the [[IS-3]], [[IS-4M|IS-4M]] and [[T-10A]]''

=== Comparison with analogues ===
''D-25T'' cannon is quite an unique gun on it's own Battle Rating. In comparison with lower BR tanks, such as Tiger II or T26E1-1 Super Pershing you may expect lower penetration power, but both of those tanks have around half of its TNT equivalent inside, which translates into less post penetration effect. Those vehicles will usually only cripple tanks, while D25T gun is able to easily oneshoot most of enemy tanks if penetrated.

This point stands even on higher battle rating vehicles equipped with this armament, but you may still lack in penetration, becouse unlike early MBT's you won't have any HEAT-FS projectiles with higher penetration. However - penetrating shells through thin side armor of Main Battle Tanks is not that hard, and everytime you manage to do that it will be likely to reward you with kill.

== Usage in battles ==

;IS-2 & KV-122

The 122 mm cannon can penetrate almost every enemy tank frontally (exceptions exist: Tiger I vision port, Tiger II hull, as well as american heavy tanks turrets frontally), and reliably knock outs the tank in a single shot because of the high amount of explosive filler. The downside of such firepower is the long reload which forces you to engage from a distance.

;IS-3, IS4-M & T-10A

Tank's armour gets tougher to pierce at higher ranks and their guns are also improved. Chemical energy shells are more common, which means that getting rid of enemies in a single blow is really important. Well armoured enemies are going to withstand your shells easily, so heavy tanks will be difficult to deal with. MBTs on the other hand will most likely penetrate you easily, but that's a double edged sword for them: they can penetrate you but you can also penetrate them. They may have a mobility advantage, but in terms of post-penetration damage you definitely are ahead of them.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Amazing penetration (at IS-2's BR) and post-penetration damage effects often leads to taking out enemy vehicles with a single shot
* The later APCBC shell (BR-471D) has slightly better penetration, while still retaining its wonderful post-penetration damage
* Stock shell (BR-471) has similar performance to the later BR-471B on the IS-2

'''Cons:'''

* Slow reload of around 20 seconds, mid-range sniping or providing heavy fire for your team is advised
* Has poor elevation angles on all models equipped with it.
* When attacking different targets, switching ammo types will take time
* At IS-3 or IS-4M's BR, it can't reliably penetrate tanks frontally

* BR-471D* - APCBC shell. Contains just over 190 g of TNT inside. Its muzzle velocity is 800 m/s, and has penetration value of 230 mm on distance of 10 meters.

=== Comparison with analogues ===
''Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns that have firepower equal to this weapon.''

== Usage in battles ==

;IS-2 & KV-122

The 122 mm cannon can penetrate almost every enemy tank frontally (exceptions exist: Tiger I vision port, Tiger II hull, as well as american heavy tanks turrets frontally), and reliably knock outs the tank in a single shot because of the high amount of explosive filler. The downside of such firepower is the long reload which forces you to engage from a distance.

;IS-3, IS4-M & T-10A

Tank's armour gets tougher to pierce at higher ranks and their guns are also improved. Chemical energy shells are more common, which means that getting rid of enemies in a single blow is really important. Well armoured enemies are going to withstand your shells easily, so heavy tanks will be difficult to deal with. MBTs on the other hand will most likely penetrate you easily, but that's a double edged sword for them: they can penetrate you but you can also penetrate them. They may have a mobility advantage, but in terms of post-penetration damage you definitely are ahead of them.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Amazing penetration (at IS-2's BR) and post-penetration damage effects often leads to taking out enemy vehicles with a single shot
* The later APHE shell (BR-471D) has slightly better penetration, while still retaining its wonderful post-penetration damage
* Stock shell (BR-471) has similar performance to the later BR-471B on the IS-2

'''Cons:'''

* Slow reload of around 20 seconds, mid-range sniping or providing heavy fire for your team is advised
* Has poor elevation angles on all models equipped with it.
* When attacking different targets, switching ammo types will take time
* At IS-3 or IS-4M's BR, it can't reliably penetrate tanks frontally

=== Comparison with analogues ===
''Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns that have firepower equal to this weapon.''

== Usage in battles ==
''Low BR (of 5.7 - 6.7)''

Can penetrate every enemy tank almost everywhere (exceptions: Tiger I vision port, Tiger II hull (unless angled downwards), Maus, and E100, as well as american heavy tanks turrets frontally), and reliably oneshoots the crew becouse of high amount of explosives inside of shells. Long reload is still worth it, and most likely it pays off.

''High BR (of 7.0 - 7.7)''

Tanks are going to get tougher as their guns are improved, and chemical energy shells are more and more common, which means that getting rid of enemies quick is really important. Enemies which are well armored are going to withstand your shells easily, so heavy tanks won't be fun to deal with. MBT's on the other hand will most likely penetrate you easily, but thats double edged sword. They can penetrate you, you can penetrate them. And they may have mobility advantage, but in terms of post-pen you are definitely a leader here.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Amazing penetration (at lower BR's) and post-penetration effects often leads to oneshooting enemy
* The later APHE shell (BR-471D) has slightly better penetration, while still retaining its wonderful post-penetration effect
* Stock shell (BR-471) has similar performance to the later BR-471B on the IS-2s
* Shell velocity is far better than other lower-rank 122 mm cannons found on the SU-122

'''Cons:'''

* Rather slow reload of around 20 seconds, mid-range sniping or providing heavy fire for your team is advised
* Has poor elevation angles on all models equipped with it.
* When attacking different targets, switching ammo types will take time
* At higher BR's it can't penetrate tanks front reliably

== General info ==
One projectile has weight of 5kg (11 lbs). Projectile is filled with 69 grams of Composition B mixture of explosives, that is equal to 903g of TNT. It travels with speed of 600 meters per second, making it one of the fastest missles.

=== Effective damage ===
''Small caliber of those rockets means that user may struggle with using HEAT becouse of its tiny post penetration effect , which may result being not able to destroy any not hullbreakable tanks, and may require you to take multiple passes to kill heavier opponent. Becouse of small amount of explosives inside there is almost no splash damage, and thats why you need to get direct hit into crew compartment.''

=== Comparison with analogues ===
This missle has no direct competition with any other projectile, becouse it marks a place, where it sits between rocket powered, and fired shell. It has fairly low damage for a missle, but it does more damage than solid shell fired from aircraft cannon, but at the same time most of unguided missles are slower, which makes it difficult to compare it directly to any other secondary weaponry.

== Usage in battles ==
''SNEB type 23 is quite an efficient way to deal with enemy ground targets in Ground Realistic Battles, becouse of large amount being stored inside pods. If those rockets are used carefully you can most surely destroy a lot of enemy tanks if not intercepted.''

=== Pros and cons ===
''Summarise and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.''

'''Pros:'''

-Large amount of projectiles in every single pod (18 pcs each)

-Fast moving missle means that drop is smaller, and you don't have to give as much lead as you would have to with other rockets. (600m/s)

-HEAT warhead means that you won't lose any penetration over distance.

*

'''Cons:'''

-One of the smallest postpenetration effect

-Rarely oneshoots enemy tanks

-Does not have significant amount of explosives inside, which means that there is almost no splash damage.

-Big amount of parasite drag, making planes feel a lot more sluggish.

== History ==
''The 68 mm calibre air-launched unguided rocket that became known all over the world as the SNEB rocket, was developed by Thomson Brandt Armements (now TDA), to provide the French armed forces with their own rocket system, that could be employed by both fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. Development took place in the early 1950s and the design was similar to that of the early US 2.75 in (70 mm) rockets that had evolved from the original Mickey Mouse air-to-air rockets of 1948. These early rockets employed eight flick-out tailfins for in-flight stability, and became known as FFAR (Folding Fin Aircraft Rocket). In order to cover a wide range of operational requirements several different types of warhead were developed and two basic types of motor. The Type 25 F1B motor was designed for use from fixed-wing aircraft and the Type 25 H1 for helicopter deployment. Full-scale production of the 68 mm SNEB rockets began in 1955 and has continued to date. Various launchers of different shapes and sizes were developed by TDA and Matra (now MBDA) for use with the SNEB 68 mm rockets. These include the following: for fixed-wing aircraft, Matra F-1 (36 rockets), Matra F-2 (6 rockets) and Matra F-4 (18 rockets); for helicopters, TDA 68-12C (12 rockets) and TDA 68-22C (22 rockets).In 1968, TDA began development of a 100 mm calibre range of rockets, with explosive warheads for use in the air-to-surface role against armour and fortified bunkers.In 1977 TDA began development of a second generation 68''
