The Scariest German Tank Destroyer

  • The German tech tree in War Thunder is infamous for having a plethora of nasty tank destroyers, but the Jagdpanzer IV is on an entirely different level. This beast sits at a battle rating of just 4.3, and is frontally invulnerable to most things it faces commonly. The teams are pretty bad, but what can you do.

      I bought the Panzer IV/70(A) a couple nights ago. It has saved me several times, and it’s funny watching people try to hit the flat plate when angled.

    People have questioned why Germany didn't make more StuGs. The original plan for the Jgdpzkw IV was that it was meant to use the main gun of the panther. But because of either troubles with the suspension, or conflicts with panther production, they were mainly fitted with the medium sized 75mm
    BTW, Spookston? Would you ever be so kind and play the StuG III A? We need a little bit more low tier representation.

    Day 41 of telling spookston to play the IT1. its a ATGM launcher on the t62 chassis, it has decent-ish mobility, the turret is squished. You can hide behind cover and shoot ATGM over the cover like a gremlin and you overpressure tanks (tho it can be rare, but it does happen without you realizing) and its MG is really werid. Also it has a cool reload animation.
