I mean, it’s smaller, faster, better gun/hull traverse, more coax mg ammo, can sort of pen Panther(Citation needed) ??? Profit.

M8 is an anti-infantry tank with an Howitzer
M10 is a tank destroyer with an hyper-velocity gun
They have different role on the battlefield and both need infantry for survive

I still didn’t unlock the M10 but I’m curious. Is it the same type of open turret tank where a single infantry man can kill half of the crew because the commander can’t duck or popping out on the hatch is optional like for most other tanks?

Yep, same situation as M8, only difference is that the commander is a bit better protected (Helmet exposed instead of nearly 50% of the person), but they still get sniped by AI and snipers

M10 is good for kill german tank from the distance is very situational because enlisted map are cqc oriented and m10 is very easy to kill

… which is not the case for the panther so jumbo is the go for tank in this case and it shows how advanced tank allies got right
at lvl 20

Wrong even the panther the turret is were you have to aim

i mean panther is not that vulnerable in comparison to M10 , and jumbos turret is pretty much indestructible , maybe only panther can deal with it anyway current maps can hardly exploit tank destroyer capabilities

The m10 is a tank destroyer ia suppose to kill tank from km of distance in the game you have to use him in 500m of map is normal the m10 can show his good side

The whole purpose of the M10 is to counter heavy german tanks. A task you might as well do with an A-20, Thunderbolt etc.

The Jumbo has much more versatility and impact on the battlefield so I really feel M10 and Jumbo should switch positions in the campaign.

im always trying to find the right tactic with it as it is highly situational though , i can literally survive with it few minutes before somebody with brain notices M10 is on battlefield and runs with explosion pack like crazy or mark me for bomb assault :smiley: the tank destroyer role is really not suited for current enlisted

but the 12,7mm HMG on top of it and other allied tanks is just so much fun, either for AA or killing puma it goes trough like butter

if you open hatch on turret only then commander can use it, and party begins before sniper intervenes :sweat_smile: M8 has it and sherman and jumbo as well which makes sherman bit more deadly, thats why i decided to upgrade it and i can say engine upgrade is already worth it

I know how use it but in war thunder m10 hmg and other murican one i recall they was nerfed because OP so i dint know they work as intend here

that P51 Mustang with teardrop canopy has few of those 12.7mm and two bombs alongside, also quite fun but difficult

I did that a lot with plane strafing runs. 6-8 .50cals in a plane should make easy work out of a puma but in my experience it worked much better in previous versions of this game than it does now. Mostly you will only do slight damage to the wheels. Not even the 20mm from the P38 will do noteworthy post pen dmg anymore when actually all those .50s alone should make swiss cheese out of a puma.

You should try using HE Jumbo grenades against Pumas though - it’s a 1-hit kill wreckfest as it got enough penetration to explode inside the tank and can be performed even frontally when aiming against the turret. Considering that the Puma is the vehicle to encountered the most often you rarely even have to switch shells in your Jumbo anymore. You can just go melting away infantry and grab those 5 free kills every once in a while when some poor Puma lads think they would have a chance against you.
