Some context. The T29 and T30 was were drafted up as the M6 program failed and the Americams panicked because they needed a tank to counter the Tiger I, II, and Jagtiger. There was a belief that the 105 mm T5E1 on the T29 would not be enough to penetrate the 150 mm upper plate of the Tiger II. So the T30 was equipped with the 155mm M1A1 or Long Tom as it would be enough. Changes were made and it never made it to service, only being around to experiment. 4 survive today. Modern simultions show that the APBC shell it carried could not penetrate the upper plate of a Tiger II and would need to load HVAP (APCR), although in game that is a different story. When WOT was released, the T34 was a tier IX and the T30 was a Tier X. You can still find gameplay of the T30 in action in its glory days and clearly see why Wargaming made it into a Tier IX TD. In essence it was too strong. Due to good pen on it's standard rounds (remember that premium rounds could only be purchased using gold) and strong turret it was hard to counter, and if it was hull down, near impossible. And that is the real life story of the T30 and why it used to be a Tier X biy is now a tier IX.
the e4 line might be one of the best american lines ever. Starting from 6 to 10 theres not really a bad tank. Hellcat is absolutely op, With a super troll turret and crazy dpm paired with very solid alpha in tier 6, t25/2 is just an upgraded version of the hellcat which is crazy strong also, the t28 proto if you know what youre doing is still a pretty solid vehicle, as it has a great gun and solid armor against most tier 8s and 7s, and the t30 is just a heavy with a td gun, super strong tank, and lastly the e4, which is a pretty strong tier 10 currently
I wouldn't say the T30 is broken, it's def an amazing tank though. It struggles at teir X because the hull armour is so mid. Ofc you play it hull down. Even then, you get penned on the cheeks. So yea, it's great but not broken
nice review on the T30. I don’t think it’s op though, if a tier 9 ht has like 370mils of HEAT it could cut through the gun malet. Other than that great review! could you do a review on the CC 1 MK 2 maybe?
After Update 10.0 (Back in May 2023), the T30 became a lot stronger, but the Penetration Nerf hurts the tank a bit, which is unfortunate. That camo looks goofy to me idk why lol
HE Damage The Like Button(idk)

Very cool tbh
WITH WARGAMING YOU WILL THE MAGIC imagine they make it tier 9 to before the E4 is kind of sucks

@@shortschannel6576 agreed. The whole line is great
Hellcat has no armour anywhere whats you sayin
@@RonaldoKR7. i bounced many shots hulldowning in the hellcat, its turret is stronger than you think
@@shortschannel6576 I'd free EXP through the Hellcat & T-25\1

my favorite tier 9 tank in the game
The T30 was so much better than the T28 Prot and E4. Nowadays, I am unsure, as the E4 has gotten so much better. But its certainly still good.
The new legendery camo looks smexy on this tank
It's decent, just not worth the 5500 gold price lol
why is the T30 a TD? in real life its considered a Heavy Tank along with the T29 and T34
I have no clue lol
@@flossie___3584 cuz E4 is TD 😂 so T30 is.
I didnt like any tank in the e4 line but the hellcat and t25/2
rip... t30 is just great
@flossie___3584 oh well, I 0refer su 122 54, fits my playstyle more
@ToastedBlitz fair enough 👌
Bro from when T30 has legendary camo? I have to have it!
It got one in the latest update
Flossie idk if im in the wrong but your thumbnails for videos and streams are the same so i dont even know if its a stream or a video😅
I was testing out a thumbnail style with a few streams. Now I've gone back to my prev stream thumbnails and am using this style for vids rn
