General info

Survivability and armour

Is the level of armour protection sufficient, is the placement of modules helpful for survival in combat? If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

Usage in battles

With almost no armour to speak of, your best bet is avoiding open area such as flat land, hills, or forests, and instead use one of the best guns in the game to snipe from far away, making sure to stay mobile so as to not expose yourself to incoming fire.

Pros and cons

Pros:

• Excellent gun with access to the slpprj m/95 round, which shares identical stats to the Italian CL3143
• Good mobility
• The weak armour may reduce the amount of spalling caused by being hit by enemy shells

Cons:

• Extremely weak armour, HE shells and even air-to-air missiles pose a large threat, especially the side armour, which even be penetrated by heavy machine guns
• The slpprj m/95 round is a tier IV modification, may take some time to get access to it
• Can be easily ammo racked
• Tall profile

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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).
