[Top 5] World of Tanks Blitz Best Tier 2 Tanks
In this article, I shall discuss the best tier two tanks in the game. It is important to know which tanks are the best as it helps later on grinds. Without any delay let's start it.
1. Lt vz. 38
Developed by the ČKD design group in 1938. The tank features the manoeuvrability and speed of a light tank, as well as good armour for its class. It has two decent guns to choose from: the stock gun has a higher rate of fire, and the top gun causes more damage per shot.
The Lt vz. 38 is a Chinese light tank with good damage per minute and an amazing speed. It sits at around 673 damage per minute firing a shell which deals 55 damage after every 4.9 seconds. The Lt also has a good top speed of 42 kph so it can zip around the map and flank the enemies easily. It also has 10 degrees of gun depression so it has no problem in working hold-down positions. The tank is also the most well-performing vehicle in tier 2.
2. Cruiser Mk. lll
The vehicle was developed based on the M1931 Christie tanks, purchased by the British Army in 1936. The vehicle was intended to be a fast, lightly-armoured breakthrough tank. The modified design was deemed successful and became the basis for other cruiser tanks. A total of 65 vehicles were built. They saw combat in France and North Africa from 1940–1941.
The Cruiser Mk. lll is a British medium tank with amazing damage per minute for a tier 2 tank. It carries 706 damage per minute, and also has decent mobility. The tank carries a two-shot autoloading gun which fires two shells. Each shell deals 50 damage. The whole magazine reloads in 7.2 seconds and the intra-clip reload between shells is 1 second. The tank also has a 15-degree gun depression so it has no problem in working hold-down positions. It is also a mobile tank with a top speed of 42 kph. It can reach positions quickly and start dealing damage.
3. Chi Ni
Developed by Osaka Artillery Arsenal as a replacement for the Type 2589. The Chi-Ni and the Chi-Ha underwent combined trials in 1937. The Chi-Ha was deemed more successful. One prototype was manufactured.
The Chi Ni is a Japanese medium tank with pretty good damage per minute and good mobility. It sits at 670 damage per minute firing a 55 damage dealing shell after 4.93 seconds. It has good gun depression sitting at 9 degrees. So it will be able to work most hills and ridgelines. It has good speed with a top speed of 30 kph. The tank also has moderate armour which can bounce shells.
4. AMX 38
Developed in 1937 by the AMX company based on the Renault R-40. The vehicle had a larger turret than comparable vehicles and was equipped with a diesel engine. By 1940 two vehicles were ready for trials.
The AMX 38 is a french tier 2 medium tank. It has good damage per minute and speed which is okay. It has 686 damage per minute firing a shell which deals 50 damage after every 4.37 seconds. The tank has only 6 degrees of gun depression which is not a lot for such a low-tier tank. The tank makes up for it with the good damage per minute. It has a top speed of 28 kph. So it can get into position quickly.
5. BT-2
Developed based on the Christie tank M1931. Produced at the Kharkiv Komintern Locomotive Factory (KhPZ), with 650 BT-2 tanks and 1,884 BT-5 tanks manufactured from 1932 through 1935.
The BT-2 is a Soviet Union tier 2 light tank with a high damage per minute and excellent mobility. It is sitting at 696 damage per minute firing a shell which deals 55 damage after 4.73 seconds. The tank has 8 degrees of gun depression. It also has a top speed of 44 kph. So it can rush into position and out spot the enemy and not get spotted itself while dealing one or two shells to the enemy too. Once this tank flanks the enemy it can destroy enemy lineups
