[Top 5] World of Tanks Blitz Best Tier 5 Tanks That Are Powerful
1. BDR G1 B
The project of a new vehicle was suggested by engineers of the Baudet-Donon-Rousell company in June 1938. However, the design was never developed
The BDR G1 B is a French heavy tank at tier 5. This tank is one of the most heavily armored vehicles in its tier. The tank can only be penetrated from the front on its lower bar. It can side scrape fairly well. The tank is weak if you are shooting at it from a 90-degree angle at its side. At tier 5 it has a pretty high alpha sitting at 225. It does not have very good damage per minute though only at 1431. This means that it fires a shell after every 9.43 seconds. Its 8 degrees of gun depression is good because it has a pretty strong turret, so it can hold hills easily. Overall the tank is solid as it cannot be penetrated from the front and can fire high damage shots back at the enemy.
2. T 1 heavy tank
Development of the T1E2 started in the U.S.A. in May 1940. The vehicle was designed as a heavy tank. The distinctive features of the vehicle were a cast hull and hydromechanical transmission with a double-disc hydraulic converter. Later, the tank was designated M6. A total of 9 vehicles (1 of which was experimental) were produced. The tank never saw action.
The T1 heavy is an American tier 5 heavy tank. It is also on the list of the most heavily armored tanks in its tier. It has a strong hull and turret. The tank can only be penetrated in its lower plate. It also has side scraping capabilities. The tank has a weak rear and side if shot at from a 90-degree angle. The T1 heavy has moderate damage per minute at 1540 damage per minute firing a shell after every 7.4 seconds which deals 160 damage.
It has 10 degrees of gun depression so it can work almost every hill in the game since it also has a strong turret. The tank is not overpowered but may seem so if used correctly.
3. KV-1
Development started at the end of 1938. A prototype was produced in August 1939. The vehicle first saw combat in December 1939 at the Mannerheim Line. The tank was mass-produced from March 1940 through August 1942, with a total of 2,769 vehicles manufactured.
The KV-1 is a Soviet Union heavy tank at tier 5. The tank has incredible armor and good damage per minute. It has a strong hull which can only be penetrated in the lower plate. The tank can side scrape like a tier 7 and has amazing alpha. It has moderate damage per minute at 1295 firing a shell which deals 200 damage after every 9.27 seconds. The tank has 7 degrees of gun depression so it can work many hills in the game. The tank is not slow either, having a top speed of 34 kph. This tank is very strong at side scraping. It will bounce most shells in such a position and deal damage in return.
4. AT 2
Design for an assault tank to break through enemy defensive lines. The design was completed by May 15th, 1943. No prototypes were built, but the project helped set the stage for another heavy assault tank, the A39 Tortoise.
The AT 2 is a British tank destroyer at tier 5. This tank boasts high damage per minute and extraordinary armor. The tank can bounce every single shell fired at from the front. The tank has amazing damage per minute at 1647 firing a shell which deals 90 damage after every 3.2 seconds. The tank can permanently track its opponents and destroy their hitpoint pool. The tank has its drawbacks though. It has a top speed of only 20 kph so it is very slow. The AT 2 can hold many hills using its 7 degrees of gun depression. The tank can seem overpowered if it is used correctly.
5. S35 CA
The design called for converting tanks into tank destroyers by mounting a 17-pounder gun into an open-topped, lightly armored cabin.
The S35 CA is a French tier 5 tank destroyer. The tank has amazing damage per minute for the tier it is in. The tank has a damage per minute of 1670 firing a shell which deals 225 damage after every 8.09 seconds. The tank has a good top speed of 45 kph. It can get into position quickly and start butchering the enemy tanks with its damage per minute. It also has 9 degrees of gun depression but since it has weak armor the tank cannot be expected to hold a hill or ridgeline. This tank is one of the most powerful tank destroyers at tier 5 and can battle tier 6 as well.
