It has only 143mm of effective protection of that 152mm, you can even see this in the damage analysts and no it's not a bug (I tried to report it because I thought it was a bug)
Can we all appreciate as a species the moment the Zis-6 cannon caused minimal damage to a tank that has less amour collectively than the gun has penetration, pure War Thunder design absolutely priceless in its quality.

Love the SU-100p the other day I was sniping and got a 1400m shot with no rangefinding, i was in shock, not as shocked as when I pinged an ELC bis in the brain from 1200m I just made goblin noises to my bro I was playing with
It's always funny to hear Spookston say 'ow' like he's been mildly inconvenienced rather than hit by a tank shell that turned at least one of his crewmates into paste.
11:53 in the same anime (anime name GATE ) the adult dragon lost an arm to basically an rpg, but later they threw everything to kill the newborns from 20mm to 155mm to atgms. Talk about overkill!
It would be neat to see you do a video on the E-series of blueprints during WW2. Kind of like a more historical video, as I've seen a lot of discussion around them. Some people to think that if they had been implemented earlier it could of saved Germany (even though it was clearly too little too late), but nonetheless I think it would be a cool video discussing the designs and how effective or game changing they might have been.
I dont think anybody say it would saved germany. The problem is with the counter narrative saying nothing would change anything even if some states doesnt get involved
You would be surprised, but some people in very dark corners of the history discussion will argue "Well actually, if Germany was able to roll the E-series into production, they would of won the war because the designs were far superior in technology to the allies and could be easily produced blah blah blah." Your typical nonsense. @@darklysm8345
This thing reminds me of the T-34-100...it typically will one shot anything...but will sometimes ricochet for no reason. I love this tank so much :) Also it went on sale about a month or so ago. Thats when i picked it up
I remember playing KV-2 with this gun in World of Tanks before there even was War Thunder and it was an absolute beast, but I've never played it in War Thunder.
This is hands-down one of my favourite tanks in the game. The cannon is incredible, and the firerrate is surprisingly fast, for the power of the cannon.
Great vid as always, Spookston. Keep up the great work! Btw, I want to clear some historical facts about ZiS-6 gun on KV-2. Initially, 107-mm gun was intended to be put on a futher KV-based heavies, like KV-3, KV-4 and KV-5 protoypes, but after it was developed Soviets just didn't have apropriate base for fire testing of the gun because it was too big for existing tanks at that point in time. So they just decided to mount it on the KV-2 chassis because it ws the only tank that was able to house this gun for the testing)
sppokston every video: " if you hadn't noticed i'm very out of it so I don't know how well ill do" Nobody: Spookston: *Proceedes to get upwards of 11 kills every game*
Idk if spookston reads old video comments, but I used this video to make my decison on purchasing the KV-2 ZiS 6. And I LOVE this tank. Thanks for the video and gameplay! :D
I just love how much that you are a CAS magnet in every game you record its always makes me chuckle cause it happens to me but without the recording. Thanks for another great video once again! I love your editing its too cute and entertaining.
I was sitting down playing warthunder and thought to myself "I feel like watching a spookston video" and the first video i see when I open RUclips is this one.
I've been wondering if a video on this season's battle pass ground vehicle, the Breda 90/53? While the gun depression is lack-luster, the gun & shell is something you don't want to miss for players that don't have the Breda 501 unlocked.
1:08 holy shit spookston how do you even do this I'm both impressed and laughing out because i wasn't expecting that the stone wall and KV-2 just disappears
To be honest as good as the Zis-6 gun KV-2 is, I still prefer the 152mm derp gun on the original KV-2. Yeah it's reload is over 30 seconds but getting kills in it is so satisfying that I can't help but laugh like an evil maniac every time I get a kill (Besides it's probably my top tank cause I used it religiously back when it was Rank III iirc. Reguardless a squad of KV-2s with 152s backed up by 1-2 107s can be quite a force to contend with. Also CAS is really starting to become a running joke in Spook's videos... just not as funny when in game though cause it's still literal cancer
Hey Spookston my username as a kid was Tank Buster because of the Battlefront II award you would get from killing the most tanks on the team. Thanks for unintentionally shouting me out in the thumbnail.
Event where you can 2v1 a dragon in F4-EJs would be both really stupid and really badass. Make it interesting. You have AH-1Ss on your team that have to kill the babies ala bomber plane targets, the dragon guarding them, and only the two F4s to distract it. Reward? A skin for your F4 that makes it look burnt to a crisp. Totally stupid. Totally not a good use of the development effort..... and totally worth it.
Spookston: "I have yet to die to a tank" Me who just got immediately killed by artillery 3 times in a row, spawned a 4th time to find 4 enemy T-34s and a KV-1S in my spawn: *insert image here*
RUclips hates you today… Your the only channel that wont load over 480p for more than a minute or 2. Ill try agian later but im sure another great video by Spookston
A type 16 walks into a bar. He asks the bartender, gimme a spookston video. The bartender says... Well I don't know what he says cuz the bartender IS spookston
Spookston "Why do I always get bombed!?" Also Spookston: 1) In a power position, 2) top 3 of the team, 3) driving the scariest vehicle in the match, and/or 4) driving something with little armor or is open topped (ergo a free kill for a plane). Gotta feel his pain though.
13:20 Well let me introduce to you the KV-3! This vehicle was meant as a test bed for the gun, which was supposed to be mounted on the KV-3. But then the KV-3 project got cancelled and so did the interest in this gun, so.. Yea. I really hope they add the KV-3 to the game some day, that'd be amazing.
This is the most CAS'd set of playthroughs I've watch this channel and this only furthers my frustrations with the CAS mechanics of this game. Anyway, hope you get enough spawn points to fully recover from your food poisoning Spook!
@Spookston talking about a KV-85 with a ~100mm gun, there was one KV-85 modified with a 10mm S-34 (I believe) in 1943 or 1944 in a matter similar to the KV-122. Would have preferred that over the IS-100 also, but the Snail decided otherwise...
He Spookston! I've been grinding France recently, and found their 8.7 lineup extremely enjoyable, using the AMX-30B2 BRENUS, regular B2, the DCA, and AMX 10 RC. It's really fun, and even though im a terrible player, i dropped 3 nukes yesterday
You know, it was funny as fist, but after watching Bo Time, Oddbaws, and Turny, back to back. Spookston is honest to god a CAS magnet to a suspicious degree.

I don’t know anything else about it, in fact I haven’t been able to even find a picture of the thing, so if it did exist it was definitely just an experiment to test the viability of having such a gun in a turret, but damn would it be cool to have in game.

Would love to see an uncommon soviet tank destroyer get showcased, like the SU-100P. Great pen for br, only thing is it is open topped (day 73)
It is deceptively decent, fast (with a decent reverse speed), an actual turret, and a "stabilizer" at very low speed.

Goddammit, that time you mentioned an anime about F4 fighting agaisnt dragons made my mind flooded with that "Gate: Thus The JSDF Fought There."
I remember playing KV-2 with this gun in World of Tanks before there even was War Thunder and it was an absolute beast, but I've never played it in War Thunder.
That thing was a legend in early WoT, just in line with the KV-5 and Type-59...
would be great to see the m36b1, its got a nice 90mm gun with tons of explosive filler.
This is hands-down one of my favourite tanks in the game. The cannon is incredible, and the firerrate is surprisingly fast, for the power of the cannon.
Spookston, I got my first nuke today. I’ve gotten so much better from watching you so thank you :)
