-As a Chinese light tank, the QN506 carries a variety of weapons to use in battles. The QN506 is a fairly effective vehicle when it comes to destroying enemy light tanks and helicopters without mercy. However, the QN itself is also very vulnerable to enemy fire due to its lacking armour and volatile ATGM launchers. The QN also struggles against MBTs at closer ranges, as almost no armament the QN has aside from the Fire-and-Forget QN502CDDs can reliably handle a T-72 or Leopard 2 from the front. Contrary to the expectations of many players, the QN506 does not have any meaningful advantage on hilly maps. The QN502CDDs can't lock enemy ground targets unless their hulls are mostly exposed, while the QN201CDs lack the penetration to reliably hurt enemy vehicles and the 30 mm cannon unable to depress past -5 degrees.

 With the electro-optical targeting system, the QN506 is capable of shooting down helicopters and careless jets with its powerful weapons. While jet aircraft can often be elusive with their longer ranged missiles and slow fire rate on the 30 mm autocannon of the QN, the real talent of this vehicle is against helicopters. Helicopters can get MAWS warnings from your missiles; However, there also exist a plethora of enemy helicopters that you will see without MAWS as well, such as the [[YAH-64]], [[AH-64A]], [[Mi-24P (Germany)]], [[G-LYNX]] and [[Mi-28A]] and many more; Helicopters equipped with MAWS are surprisingly rare at the QN's own BR, and as such most players won't even be aware of a small, fairly slow and smokeless ATGM headed towards their vehicle. The QN502CDDs guide for over a minute and have respectable range, and you can quite often easily handle two or even three enemy helicopters on your own should your team prove ineffective at shooting them down.

 The QN506 is based on the chassis of the [[ZTZ59 (Family)|ZTZ59]] with additional ERA and rubber side skirts. To fit the new combat compartment, the QN506 has a heightened compartment with additional 30 mm plates, as well as sporting a ZPT99G turret in the center of the hull. Unlike what most players would have expected, the combat compartment is isolated from the crew compartment (that is, the turret is unmanned), so any shots on the turret will very likely disable the guns or the turret system altogether but the crew is very likely left unharmed. Since they are now placed at the front in a tandem configuration (with the driver slightly offset from the remaining crew), any shots for the centre mass will likely knock the vehicle out right away.
-The flat frontal plate and the fragile unmanned turret are huge weak spots that can get penetrated by autocannons and disable QN506 to fight back. The ERAs on the upper glacis could help QN506 survive a few shots from HEATFS, yet it's still far from capable to stop any tandem ATGM or large-calibre APFSDS around its BR from killing the whole crew. The ATGM launchers mounted on each side of its unmanned turret are vulnerable to overpressure damage. Sometimes, a dozen of rounds from autocannon could detonate those launchers and knock out the whole crew.

 {{main|QN502CDD}}
-The 4 larger tubes on the missile launcher box house the fire-and-forget QN502CDD missiles with a tandem warhead. This armament is considered the special gun of the QN506. QN502CDD is a fire-and-forget missile with lock-on before launch and automatic self-guidance. It takes a top attack flight profile against the target with some distance and will fly directly toward the nearby one. Not only can their 1,000 mm penetration easily destroy enemy ground vehicles hit behind cover thanks to its unique trajectory, but the missile can also lock onto aerial targets from some distance - the missile will very likely take them out if the target is unaware of the missile flying straight to them. Unlike the ordinary IF missile, the QN502CDD is quite resistant to flares and HIRSS. It can also lock the aircraft in instant within 8 km of effective range without triggering MAW.

QN502CDD is a fire-and-forget missile with lock-on before launch and automatic self-guidance and can be fired whilst in motion. It takes a top attack flight profile against the target with some distance and will fly directly toward the nearby one. Not only can their 1,000 mm penetration easily destroy enemy ground vehicles hit behind cover thanks to its unique trajectory, but the missile can also lock onto aerial targets from some distance - the missile will very likely take them out if the target is unaware of the missile flying straight to them. This lethal weapon allows the QN506 to deal with multiple enemies at the same time or catch those far-away charging light targets who focus on capturing points or arriving at sniping spots. Unlike the ordinary IF missile, the QN502CDD is quite resistant to flares and HIRSS. It can also lock the target in an instant within 8 km of effective range without triggering MAW or LWS.
 Despite its brilliant firepower, the QN502CDD is quite challenging to use in practice. The awful -5° depression angle dramatically limits its usage as an ATGM carrier. It requires more than half the body of the enemy vehicle exposed in your gunner's sight to get a successful lock, which is rare in most situations. It also has a slow peak speed of 205 m/s and mediocre tracking that most enemy helicopters with proper vigilance can easily evade with a roll. Besides, since you cannot decide which place the missile should hit, you might have to spam them when you accidentally have a close-quarters battle with the enemy MBTs and pray they will hit the right spot and neutralize your enemy.
-When fighting in hilly maps, it's suggested that you should rise your gun a bit before launching the QN502CDD, or it might crash into obstacles before its climbing stage. The lock will remain as it is inside a 90° arc from your gun sight.

+The 4 larger tubes on the missile launcher box house the fire-and-forget QN502CDD missiles with a tandem warhead. This armament is considered the special gun of the QN506. QN502CDD is a fire-and-forget missile with lock-on before launch and automatic self-guidance. It takes a top attack flight profile against the target with some distance and will fly directly toward the nearby one.

-Despite its brilliant firepower, the QN502CDD is quite challenging to use in practice. The awful -5 degree of depression angle dramatically limits its usage as an ATGM carrier. It requires more than half the body of the enemy vehicle exposed in your gunner sight to get a successful lock, which is rare in most situations. It also has a slow peak speed of 205 m/s and mediocre tracking that most enemy helicopters with proper vigilance can easily evade with a roll. Besides, since you cannot decide which place the missile should hit, you might have to spam them when you accidentally have a close-quarters battle with the enemy MBTs and pray they will hit at the right spot and neutralize your enemy.

 When fighting in hilly maps, it's suggested that you should rise your gun a bit before launching the QN502CDD, or it might crash into obstacles before its climbing stage. The lock will remain as it is inside a 90° arc from your gun sight.

-The 7.62 mm MG is only effective against light vehicles with open compartment. It takes an awkward position since every else armament on this vehicle can do a better job than it from all aspects, so it will only be useful when you want to conserve your valuable ammo. It can still be used to ping targets or to destroy minor obstacles blocking your line of sight.

-As a light tank, the QN506 abnormally has an IRST tracking radar to help it fight aerial targets. This equipment increases the anti-air capability of the QN506 to both guide the QN201DD and fire your autocannon with accurate leading. However, you still have to manually find aerial targets due to the absence of a search radar.

+As currently the highest BR light tank in China tech tree, the QN506 carries many lethal weapons to use in battles. The QN506 is a great predator to slay light vehicles and helicopters. However, you're also very vulnerable to enemy firepower due to your fragile turret and volatile ATGM launchers. Besides, the QN506 lacks any efficient measure to kill a MBT from the front except for its uncontrollable QN502CDD missiles. Far from the expectation of many players, the QN506 doesn't have advantage in hilly maps. The top-attacking QN502CDD can't lock the enemy with a tiny part of the vehicle exposed. The underperforming engine and mediocre depression also limit its capability to flank and maneuver across the maps.
-With the IRST tracking radar, the QN506 is capable to shoot down helicopters and careless jets with its powerful weapons. However, all of its armaments lack proximity fuze to be a professional SPAA. On occasion, you may use QN502CDD to hunt helicopters when they sneak attack you team and immediately hide behide hills.
