Description
MGB-61 is a tier 1 Motor Gun Boat it has a battle rating of 1.7
General info
Survivability and armour
MGB-61 has no armour, so a few hits from ships with cannons will destroy MGB-61. Though small boats such as MTB's will have a tough time trying to destroy MGB-61 due the the powerful guns on board. MGB-61 has a crew of 12. In terms of survival most small boats will have a tough time trying to destroy the MGB because of the powerful guns, though larger ships will have no problem.
Mobility
Write about the ship’s mobility. Evaluate its power and maneuverability, rudder rerouting speed, stopping speed at full tilt, with its maximum forward speed and reverse speed.
Armament
Primary armament
MGB-61 has two turrets at the front of the boat, both have 2x 12.7mm Vickers MK V machine guns. Both turrets can turn 360 degrees.
Secondary armament
MGB-61 has a powerful 40 mm 2pdr Rolls Royce semi-automatic cannon, capable of destroying any boat or ship. The 40mm 2pdr has a rapid firing rate, but it can only turn in one direction.
Anti-aircraft armament
An important part of the ship’s armament responsible for air raid defense. Talk about the ship’s anti-air cannons and machine guns, the number of guns and their positions, their effective range, and about their overall effectiveness – including against surface targets.
If there is no anti-aircraft artillery, remove this section.
Torpedo armament
Many ships are armed with torpedo launchers, and for some vessels such as boats, torpedoes are an extremely important means of defeating an opponent. Evaluate the position of the torpedo launchers, discuss the ammunition available, firing specifics such as dead zones, features of the torpedoes themselves, etc.
If there is no torpedo armament, remove this section.
Special armament
2 x Mk.VII depth charges
Usage in the battles
MGB-61 capable at destroying all small boats and most ships due to the firepower. The 12.7mm guns should be used to take out fast MTBs due to the accuracy of vickers machine guns, which can fire in any direction. The 40mm 2pdr cannon should be used to take out larger boats due to it's rapid firing rate, a few good shots should do the job. Unfortunately it can only turn in one direction so its traverse speed is low.
Pros and cons
Summarize and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Do not use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - they have a substitution in the form of softer "inadequate", "effective".
Pros: powerful gun, turrets turn 360 degrees, semi-auto cannon
Cons: no armour, not as fast as MTBs, 2pdr had average accuracy, 2pdr has slow traverse speed
History
Talk about the history of the creation and military application of the ship in greater detail than in the introduction. If there turns out to be too much historical information, put it in a separate article, taking the link to the vehicle article and adding the “/historical” block to it (e.g. https://wiki.warthunder.ru/Vehicle-name/historical) and add a link to it here using the main template. Links to sources must be provided at the end of the article.
Media
An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
Read 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 ship;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
ETC.
Sources
Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:
- topic on the official game forum;
- page on ship encyclopedia;
- other literature.
