Not a single medium tank can deliver 1,280 damage in 4.5 seconds; it is this factor that allows you to halve or finish off almost any “ten” in a matter of moments.
Greetings, tankers! Here's Wotpack and a guide to the TVP T 50/51 Czechoslovakian tier 10 medium tank in World of Tanks. Let's see how relevant it is in random, what perks to download and what equipment is better to choose.
TTX TVP T 50/51
Let's take a closer look at the parameters of the equipment, comparing first of all with the Bat.-Châtillon 25 t and Progetto M40 mod. 65. Also, for the sake of completeness, I added another part of ST to the list.
Firepower
The TVP T 50/51 at its disposal , so it is not surprising that it has the lowest one-time damage among its classmates, 320 units. The situation is exactly the same with armor penetration with a basic sub-caliber projectile, which is why the vehicle is gold-dependent. A special cumulative projectile already penetrates 310 mm, you can play.
Ammunition characteristics:
The sub-caliber has a high flight speed, but the cumulative one, on the contrary, is very slow for a level 10 ST.
But what then is the feature of this ST, why do players love it so much? The thing is that the TVP T 50/51 has a drum for 4 shells with a super fast reload between shots - 1.5 seconds. Thus, he can deliver 1280 damage in less than 5 seconds. This is truly impressive, a careless departure from the enemy and immediately minus half of your HP.
In addition, the top Czechoslovak STs have good accuracy and fast aiming. The vertical guidance angles are also comfortable. The total recharge of the drum takes almost 24 seconds, which is also quite fast. Taking this into account, the potential damage per minute is 2698 units.
Vitality
The safety margin is a minimum of 1800 units and the lack of armor also leaves no chance for error. The tank requires careful play, because the hull is very thin, it can be penetrated by everyone, and land mines fly in with full damage. Therefore, modules are also often criticized.

Mobility and reconnaissance
With a mass of 40 tons, the machine has a good engine, so it has a high specific power of 25 hp/t. It quickly reaches its maximum speed of 60 km/h and has a high chassis turning speed. The stealth factor is average, due to its considerable dimensions. But the viewing radius of 410 meters is pleasing, one of the best indicators at level 10. The communication range is also high.
Equipment
In World of Tank, the new tanks are quite good. Almost the entire branch is replete with fairly balanced cars. There is only one effective set of equipment that a player should use on a Skoda T-50. As consumable items, you need to install large sets: first aid kit, repair kit and fire extinguisher. This will provide passive bonuses to protection against fires, crew injuries and equipment damage. There is no need to spend them in battle, and a one-time purchase will not cost that much.
Continuing the guide (“Skoda T-50”), you should also understand that the choice of additional equipment will depend on your playing style and the role you perform. In any case, you can safely install “Improved Ventilation” to improve all the characteristics of the tank. “Vertical aiming stabilizer” and “Reinforced aiming drives” will also be useful. The “rammer” is absolutely useless due to the presence of a drum on the top gun. Although the increase in reload speed will be significant, the main damage will still be caused by three successive shots.
With ammunition everything is also very simple. Armor-piercing shells are capable of penetrating up to 248 mm of enemy defense. This is quite enough for battles with opponents of equal level. A landmine inflicts up to 420 damage per shot, but is only capable of hitting 50 mm. HEAT shells penetrate up to 310 mm. Thus, it makes sense to take up to 60% of the armor-piercing stock and allocate 15% to other types of shells. They still cannot achieve greater efficiency.
Advantages and disadvantages
Let’s sum up our acquaintance with the tactical and technical characteristics of the TVP T 50/51 , highlighting its strengths and weaknesses.
Advantages:
- cassette for 4 shells with quick reloading between shots;
- good accuracy;
- quick mixing;
- excellent mobility;
- high visibility;
Flaws:
- small alpha strike;
- low armor penetration;
- weak armor;
- information, although fast, is longer than CD inside the drum;
- 48 shells may not be enough in a protracted battle.
More detailed information about the technique:
The T-50 battle tank before update 0.8.7 was quite good, and could perform two main tasks: active light and close combat. However, after update 0.8.7, the maximum speed dropped from 60 to 52 km/h, and the power density was halved, which led to significant deterioration. Now this tank has become a pass-through for studying the next T-34 tank, but most people choose the A-20. The armament is quite weak, but some experienced players use a 37 mm gun to destroy enemy scouts and artillery without making mistakes.
In summary: I would not recommend the T-50 tank for researching the T-34, but still it all depends on the preferences of the players.
Crew training
The top Czechoslovak ST includes four tank crews, and the commander has a combined specialization with the radio operator. We recommend the following selection of skills for TVP T 50/51 :
Considering the complete lack of armor, it is more important to rely on the vehicle’s stealth, so we first upgrade Camouflage. We maximize visibility so as not to waste a module slot on optics. Radio interception and Eagle Eye together will add 20.5 meters to the viewing radius, and another 11 meters will be from the Combat Brotherhood.
Otherwise, we are improving the stabilization of the gun, increasing the chance of a critical hit during aimed shooting, and speeding up the overall reload by 9.1% when the health factor is below 180 units.
The legendary T-50-2 returns to the battlefields of World of Tanks
The Wargaming dungeons could not contain this machine, and it broke free! The speed limit violator was identified by witnesses as the T-50-2 , one of the fastest Tier VI light tanks in the game. Now this newest scout will properly “illuminate” the battlefield for you!
If you rode out in a T-50-2 , clearly tell yourself that you are a “firefly” , since it is highly not recommended for you to engage in direct firefight. This light tank excels when it gets to key points with speed and from there tells its allies where the enemy is most vulnerable. As long as your Camouflage Net and the appropriate skills allow you to remain undetected, and you have the patience to avoid giving yourself away with reckless fire, you bring great value to the team.
If your strong point is active reconnaissance, then a 57-mm gun will come in handy. Impressive ammunition and a huge rate of fire allow the T-50-2 to fight off enemy light tanks or destroy unwary artillery.
Being a reconnaissance officer in high-level battles is a task for a real daredevil, and this premium vehicle can even get into the “nines” . But it’s not for nothing that WoT players on PC loved him so much back in the day. Don't miss the chance to purchase the T-50-2 for consoles, especially since in addition you will receive the learned "Smooth Move" skill and the "Highest Score" combat mission!

How to play TVP T 50/51
Let's look at the final configuration of TVP T 50/51:
This assembly is designed to maximize shooting comfort. But if you have not yet learned all the perks for review or are not ready to install Bays (national dish), then instead of ventilation you can install coated optics.
TVP T 50/51 is a team player, as he works best in a support role .
At the beginning of the battle, the dynamics allow you to take an advantageous position in order to catch the enemy on the road in a few seconds (if the map allows it). In the middle of the battle, you need to choose targets distracted by your allies; this is the only way to effectively use a 4-shell cassette.
It is important to save strength points for the end of the battle. When most of the enemies are “wounded animals” with less than half their HP, you can safely roll out 1 on 1 and take them away. For one shot received, you will respond with four.
Tactics
The last thing our guide should consider is the Skoda T-50 and its tasks on the tactical map. First of all, you should prepare for difficulties with pumping. You will need a lot of experience, but due to the poor stock guns, it will be gained slowly. There will also be a problem with installing the top gun - initially you will need all the chassis modifications, and this is also a lot of experience.
Due to the weak armor of the tank, our guide (Skoda T-50) recommends avoiding head-on collisions with the enemy. Despite the high damage, the vehicle has weak armor, which means someone else will have to climb first. Low traffic will not allow you to shine, so another player should also take care of this task.
Results
Top Czechoslovak medium tanks TVP T 50/51 is a very skill-dependent vehicle:
- the lack of armor forces you to play carefully;
- low armor penetration requires knowledge of the vulnerable areas of other equipment.
You will also have to spend money on gold cumulatives, otherwise you risk being left without damage. Don’t expect an easy game with this technique; you need to constantly look for options to get into the enemy’s flank or rear, because fighting head-on with such a hole and a small alpha is not an option.
Frame
The Skoda T-50 tank has mediocre armor for its level, even for the middle class. So you won’t shine in one-on-one duels. However, this vehicle is ideal for flank attacks. Fortunately, speed allows this. With a top-end engine of 1000 horsepower, the tank can reach speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour. This is suitable both for enlightenment and for quick maneuvering in defense.
The chassis is also pleasing. If in stock the turning speed is only 38 degrees, then in the updated version it is 42. Not that much, but it will allow you to effectively fight other medium tanks. The radio station does not require improvement. In the basic assembly it provides up to 730 meters of communication. In the advanced version, the range will be 850 meters.
Crew skills and abilities
For the crew on the T-50-2, you need to take those skills that maximize visibility, dynamics and camouflage. Therefore, the main skill for the T-50-2 crew is camouflage.
Next, all crew members are examined for repairs. Then the commander can learn Eagle Eye and radio interception.
To enhance the speed and maneuverability of the tank, the driver can learn the king of off-road conditions, and for effective resistance to the pursuing enemy, a smooth ride can be used.
The loader learns his skills in any order, however, the priority is the non-contact ammo rack.
