The Marder 1A3 gets a bit better armour than its predecessor, the A1-. Still the armour is minimal. Anything except light machine guns (LMGs) can kill you. Therefore you must be REALLY careful.
Armour type:
| Armour | Front (Slope angle) | Sides | Rear | Roof |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hull | 8 mm | 8 mm Top 15 mm Bottom |
8 mm | 8 - 11 mm |
| Turret | 5 - 25 mm Turret front ___ mm Gun mantlet |
11 - 20 mm | 11 - 20 mm | 11 mm |
| Cupola | 11 mm | 11 mm | 11 mm | 11 mm |
Notes:
Mobility
Reverse gearbox
Forward and backward movement is possible at the same maximum speed
Speedforward / back
AB84 / 84 km/h
RB and SB76 / 76 km/h
Number of gears8 forward

Weight33.5 t
Engine power
AB1 145 hp
RB and SB600 hp
Power-to-weight ratio
AB34.2 hp/t
RB and SB17.9 hp/t
Unlike the armour, the mobility is very good with 84 k/h both forwards and backwards. This makes you faster than most other tanks at this battle rating, meaning if your armour can`t save you, your mobility can.

Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Good mobility
- Good ATGM
- Thermal sights
- Good against aircraft
Cons:
- Almost no armour
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
See also
Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:
- reference to the series of the vehicles;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.

- topic on the official game forum;
