Well-deserved award WOT 2021 (award to veterans WOT 2021): gift tank.

VK 28.01 mit 10.5 cm L / 28 is another clone at this month's supertest.

VK 28.01 mit 10.5 cm L/28 (Germany, LT-6, prem, gift) was released this afternoon for testing. Short name of the car: VK 28.01 105.

According to the history of our game, this is a very interesting car turns out. VK 28.01 105 is a clone of the current "tolstopard", but which returned the same old gun 10.5 cm Kw. K. L/28. It was taken away from VK 28.01 in the ill-fated patch 0.9.18 (2017), when the LT-10 was introduced and when stretching the branches of the LT, many tanks lost their beautiful TTX. And this prem (at this stage of testing, this is prem (!), then, most likely, they will simply transfer it to promotional ones) this is an attempt to evoke nostalgia and recall the most beautiful gameplay on this light tank.

If we compare the prem VK 28.01 105 with the current VK 28.01 (2021, 1.12.1), we will get the following differences (WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE GUN!):

VK 28.01 (1.12.1) ==> VK 28.01 mit 10,5 cm L/28:

• Changed the tank class: from "Pumpable" to "Premium"

Gun:

• Not taken into account

Tower:

Engine:

• Specific power: from 26.73 to 26.06
• The cost of repairing modules (not HP): from 4 340 to 4 940

And these comparisons, if we look at the differences of the 10.5 cm L/28 gun between the new prem VK 28.01 105 and the "tolstopard" of 2017:

VK 28.01 (0.9.18) ==> VK 28.01 mit 10,5 cm L/28:

Only the gun:

• Rate of fire: from 7.82 to 6.95

• Average damage per minute: from 2,738 to 2,434
• Average high-explosive shell damage per minute: from 3,207 to 2,851

How can I get it and what will it be issued for?

But it's simple here. Nostalgia, the return of an old gun, a famous tank, as well as ~testing time on ST just tanks under the Well-deserved award of 2021 in November 2021. The tank lacks only the prefix "Super".
