PROTOTYPE HISTORY

The German Wehrmacht started World War II... with tractors. That is what the first German tanks were called. This happened because, under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, which witnessed the defeat of Germany in World War I, the country was not allowed to develop and produce heavily armored fighting vehicles. Therefore, these products had the name of civil technology, and it was not far from the truth. The first samples of German tanks were modernized tractors. An example of this is the Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31 light tank.

The development of the tank was carried out by two well-known manufacturers of first-class military equipment: “Krupp” and “Rheinmetall”. They presented two models that differ from each other in some detail. But the main ones were the same.

The first tank "Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31" was created on a tractor chassis with 12 rollers, combined into six carts. The chassis was covered with an armor shield, however, the design of the tracks and suspension was vulnerable even to large-caliber small arms. The “Daimler Benz” engine with 100 hp the designers placed it in front, which was a controversial decision. On the one hand, he covered the crew of 4 people, and on the other hand, he was vulnerable to the enemy and increased the risk of immobilizing the combat vehicle in the battle.

The welded-riveted turret was moved back, which made the tank look like a self-propelled gun, however, the armament of the "Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31" was not very powerful. The main gun was a 37 mm KwK 36 L/45 cannon, and a 7.92 mm Dreyse machine gun was also mounted on the tank.

Features

Chassis vulnerabilities, low movement speed, light armor, and low autonomy made the "Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31" not a very popular tank. It was released in a small batch and quickly gave way to another "tractor" "Panzer I".

This tank is designed for beginners, it has tier-I, upgrade options and performs well in tutorial missions and online battles with players of the same level.
