Gonna send this to my girlfriend

Thx for helping me explain to her that small is not bad

It's high fire rate and high pen makes up for its small caliber, and since it has APHE, it can do a lot of damage in one shot. One of the best and my favourite T-34 in the game!

Regular T-34-57 and the premium ones = my favourite lineup

The premium T34 57 gets the better turret and an APCR round useful for penning Churchills which are running rampant because of the current battle pass. On top of that, it gets the stronger 75 mm drivers hatch too. Talk about pay to win!

my favorite t-34. Because of the reload rate, turret rotation speed, repair costs, etc. For the 85 mm gun I use the KV-85. It's very fast for a heavy tank and has very good reverse speed. The repair costs are not high either.

I remeber when this tank was the king of 4.3. But i still love it

This is kind of the situation I have with German medium tanks. The Leopard 1 might be the one with the biggest cannon and highest BR before one gets to the stabilised cannons, but the Panther 2 tops it in every aspect for me.

I totally agree with you For how much I love 88mm of Tiger, 122mm of Is-2 and152mm of KV-2 T-34-57 is just a great tank, a nice medium tank over all, best part of it its great penetration and reload time, just go "pew pew pew"

this tank is one of the best you can play, is so good that when you level up , the t34 from higher br seems a downgrade

"and none of these mediums has a cannon smaller", what about phong khong T-34 with 37mm?

the only time when smaller is acceptable

Honestly quite incredible

I have this, premium T34-57, spaded KV-85, an AA and a CAS plane in my line up. Pretty fun to play

It's just like rifles, a smaller round will have a higher velocity giving it more penetration at closer ranges though they suffer at longer ranges as they lose speed due to drag while at longer ranges a larger round can perform better because it's greater mass will use shear mass to punch through. (This doesn't really pertain to Sabot rounds at high tiers as they use very dense metals to make up for their small size)

(Source: It was revealed to me in a dream) The main reason why it penetrates so much is that the Caliber kinda works like APDS pr APFSDS rounds Hitting a very small area making transfering energy to said area harder causing penetration

Great stuff pal....thanks

That velocity smacks

0:20 Correction, 22 across 4 nations. 20 without including phong kong anti air variants

Please please please review le funni twin 23mm cannon strapped on a APC (the BTRZD). The HE shells on that thing is ludicrous, just grazing a wing can turn a plane to mush

First if all love your gameplay man👍🏻👍🏻Superb match...👌🏻👌🏻

I thought i was tweaking when i used this tank, it felt so much better than the other t-34s and even the 85's that came after it. Honestly my favourite t-34

The Premium Version (t34-57 1943) is a extremely good money maker! Still one of my Favorite tanks !

I'm always bloody up tiered when I even look at taking this tank out 🙄

Now this is a good Christmas gift

Finally my thoughts on this legendary cannon come alive in this video

Please do the sm91 plane for ground pounding next in italian techtree

unironically the best tank I've ever used in WT, it's really good in good hands

my favorite on 5.7

I personally feel more comfortable driving the ASU-57, but this one is a good tank too.

What are the name of the songs that you're using in these videos? Not sure if the other one was in this video, too, but there's one where you usually switch to arcade gameplay

my absolute favourite t 34

Hey man, would you mind sharing your exact graphical settings that you use? Thanks!

Yes the cannon barrel is less girthy than the other T-34 guns, but it's also quite a bit longer.

thats all great but what about PIECES OF AMMUNITION

I certainly love this little tank so much that I purchased even the 1943 variant during the anniversary. It's just such a great all-arounder. I do wish to say an information that I hope gets pinned. The T-34-57 is very prone to what could be called "barrel overheating" mechanic. Basically, if you continuously fire shots after shots, mainly for long-range, your shots will not be accurate for long. If you attempt to fire long-range shots too many times, you will have to wait between each shot after your 1st or 2nd shots, else you will not hit your target properly. This is crucial information, because this is a very hidden mechanic that never gets talked about, but can heavily hinder vehicle performance and opinion about it. The T-34-57's gun is also not on the same or performance as the T-34-85's gun as one might think. There's a less hidden mechanic called overmatching that basically makes higher caliber cannons be better on angles and also create more spalling when they pen (one of the reasons the ARL-44's gun is so strong at its BR). This is one of the reasons the 85's gun is said to ignore angles when in reality, it's just that it has higher caliber shells than most tanks it faces. The T-34-57 is worse with angles, so it's sometimes better to wait for enemies that are unaware of you to show a better flat side of their armor if they're unangled atleast, otherwise you have to pray a bit for a hit.

one problem I ahve with it is by far the fact the small calliber means weaker penetration on slopes making the 57 prone to bouncing when shooting slopped armor

T34 57 was my favorite back when I was grinding Russia

which shell did you use for the 57mm?

The 57mm might have all the advantages of the world, really. The problem in my opinion is the tank. If you use it as a substitute for the t-34-85 you will have way less armour because the 85 is forged by the mighty hand of Stalin and his close friend, Mr Volumetric.

57mm gun is smallest gun mounted on a T34 and it’s variants Are we gonna forget that the phong hongs are also T34s that are armed with 37mm guns?

Do t34 100 next please.

Just played this tank tonight, with 11 kills and no deaths.

Cool Vid.

bro MG is ALWAYS useful as it can mark enemies on the map

I’ve won 1v1 duels in matches with a t34-57, just recently duel 2 tigers, won both by shoot their gun and flaking their side, the fact I can bounce a 88 mm shell is crazy haha. Can’t really pen a tiger from the fron unless ur aim is real good

HTP you should know, its not about size its how you use it

You still can play T-34-57 in hull down. It wobbles quite a bit, on the move and on the brakes. Tactically using the latter allows for huge depression boost which somehow doesn't COMPLETELY destroy your accuracy. It's difficult, but once this one click in your head, you feel yourself like some sort of slasher boogieman on most T-34 tanks, not just T-34-57.

Hey so why not score this at a 9 instead if no serious downsides? Only thing I can imagine setting it back to 8 is cannon size but reload speed and penetration make up for this slightly less than spectacular post penetration dmg. In your opinion what would set it over the top for you?

What about the chinese AA T-34 with 37mm's?

3 Nations? USSR, Germany, China and Sweden. I count 4.

1:15 It literally does not matter how stupid these dad jokes are I physically cant help myself from giggling

Just a fun fact Reloading a T34-85 on average took around and let me make this clear AROUND not exactly 5 seconds

"the 57 mm gun is the smallest gun placed on a t-34 tank." Phōng không T-34: 🗿🗿🗿

Honestly the 57s could go up in br since volumetric makes them utter hell to kill

0:21 What about the Phong Khong?

Aphe or aphebc on this tank?

well I mean technically Vietnam has that T34 AA with a smaller cannon ;)

Okay, so, the larger the round, the more air resistance, thus loss of penetration. Smaller round = less resistance, thus less pen lost over distances.

This video reminds me another time of how much I suck at this game.

Impenetrable driver's hatch.

Can you do one on both H and P versions of Tiger II?

the vietnamese AA mod of t-34 has a smaller caliber

do ru251

ummm there is 1 t34 with a smaller gun, the phong khong t34 (anti air t34 in vietnamese) which has a 2 37mm auto cannons

,,smallest cannon on T34" meanwhile phong kong T34 with twin 37mm

quickest click ever luv your videos

10 minute video, 2 commercial breaks

You are wrong about the 57mm being better than the 85mm penetration wise. The 57mm can get better flat penetration as long the 85mm isnt using APCR ( it got buffed to something like 190mm ) but what you arent considering is the INSANE angled pen of the BR 365A shell. It can literally pen angled tigers across the map.

My man hasn't even researched KV-85

I would give it more than a 8

I love Zis 2 Canon 😘😘😘😘😘

IMO the t-34-57 is the best, most all rounded t-34 in the entire game, even better than the t-34-85 because of it's lower BR.

well the phong khong t34 have 37mm

I snipe leopard 1's with this beauty at 7.0

0:18 Aren‘t there 4 Nations with atleast one T-34?

But at this time aren't there 4 nations with T-34 variants? China Russia ofc Germany Sweden And i think that technically the smallest caliber on a T-34 variants is in the Phong Khong T-34

Aren't it actually four Nations? China/Germany/Russia and Finnland? :D

finally a good tank

Cuz that what she said.

Great firepower, mobility, and protection...but only 8/10? What would it take for a vehicle to get 10/10?

T-34 OP

Theres a t34 anti Air version but you cant call it a Canon that it youses right

I love using the T-34-57 but :( the rng is never in my favor I kill more tanks with heat bullets than with the AP of the T-34-57 it's sad because I love that tank

Idk I can’t pen shit with that t-34

5:55 turet armor is very weak even for T34 model 1940. Perfect place to be oneshot by shermans, M10+, Swedish stuff, other T34 / KV1, Panzer 3 (long 50 mm), puma, panzer 4 (long 75 mm), StuG (long 75 mm), any tank destroyer soviet or german with HEAT... Trust me, i thought i would be as invicible as i faced many when playing german tanks, but i get oneshot so many times it's annoying. The lower turret front is shell trap (like on Panzer 4), so garantee oneshot from soviet 76 mm there (where EVERYONE *** AIMS)

a nightmare to fight hordes after hordes in 75mm shermans

It's my favorite russian tank And 1943 variant also

I think the d-5t is way better, it is way better at angels and it nearly always one shot.

Its way better having a 57mm gun with good fire rate and penetration than a 122mm gun (is2) with a great penetration but a damn 20+ seconds reload. Forget about playing at the front line with injured crew lol, u shoot once and the enemy 5 lmao

See? Say it with me boys: SIZE DOESN'T MATTER!

Comment for the alrogithm.

T 34 57 is best T 34. No one can change my mind

It's not small, it's average sized and good enough

The 57 is honestly my preference when choosing a T34. I think it really fixes a lot of the major problems with most russian tanks. Unfortunately russian players are attracted to HE filler as if it was cocaine. So no one will ever listen to reason

I mean... It's not small, it's pretty average

SEE THIS?! THE SMALL ONES ARE BETTER THAN THE BIG ONES!

is it me or his S sounds are sharp and pain for the ear?

Chinese T34 AA have a smaller gun ;)

You really need to stop jerking the mouse at every shot lol
