The Shooting Range
Before we start, here's a quick announcement.
The next episode of the Shooting Range will be out on Sunday, the 28th of January.

In this episode…
The Somua S 35 — how the French created their best pre-WWII tank;
The Middle East — let's take a look at one of the new maps;
Hotline: the developers answer questions that you've left in the comments!
But first, let's start with…..
The surprisingly fast Lorraine 40t and how to play it!
War Machines Lorraine 40t
We continue the examination of the most interesting machines from the update 1.75.
Next in the line is a tier 4 vehicle called "Char de bataille de 40 tonnes"
or simply the Lorraine 40t.
In post-war France they wanted to create a middle tank
that would serve as a more powerful analog of the German Panther.
The Lorraine prototype with an oscillating turret was the lightest and the fastest,
so the company got the contract.
But they managed to assemble only two copies of this tank, before the initial order changed completely.
The silhouette of this tank sends a clear message
This is totally not an ambushing type machine. You can't hide this.
On the other hand, you don't even have to
as your most valuable advantages are your speed and a deadly 100mm weapon with a drum autoloader.
In RB and SB you can drive as fast as 40-45 kilometers per hour out of the maximum 60.
which almost guarantees you beating everyone to the capture point.
And in arcade you can go even faster — up to 65 kmph.
Just remember, that at this pace it's really easy to lose control and accidentally go skidding,
opening your sides to enemy fire.
As for the weapon, you've got a 100mm gun shooting two types of shells
and piercing 226 mm of armour from 100 meters.
This is enough to destroy almost any target on its current BR.
The autoloader holds seven shells and reloads them in seven seconds.
Keep in mind that after seven shots you have to wait a lot longer — for 38 seconds.
You will see this driving any French tank with an oscillating turret
so the next piece of advice works for all of them.
Forget about HE shells. At all.
Use only the APCBCs — especially with the Lorraine's precise gun,
and also given the fact that the turret rotates at a very good speed of 30 degrees per second.
Now let's talk about protection.
We can't really call it armour, because 40mm in front and 30 in the sides and back
do not really do it for a post-war tier-4 tank.
Especially when 3 out of your 4 crew members reside in the turret.
Aaaaand you don't have any smokes.
So you can easily guess our next advice
play very carefully and don't let the enemies catch you in their sights.
If you are already fired at, and your gun breech is damaged, or your gunner is dead,
retreat as fast as you can.
All the more reasons to thank engineers for that great speed.
So how do you play this tank?
By relying on your advantages: your mobility and your gun.
In the very beginning of the match rush to the point and capture the hell out of it.
After that — don't just stand there, flank the enemies!
Even better if you can get to them from behind.
Plan your routes in advance
you don't get the luxury of meeting your opponents face to face and surviving.
That's why the hardest mode to play this tank is the arcade,
where it's almost impossible to stay undetected because of all the markers
and the weak protection makes it impossible to survive any kind of punishment.
Yes, the Lorraine 40t is extremely demanding of your skills.
But in capable hands it can wreak some real havoc on the battlefield!
And now let's talk about the tank that we've briefly mentioned before
the Somua S 35 and what happened to it…
Pages of History Somua S35
Right after the end of the WWI the French Army lost a lot of its fundings,
so the cavalry was being motorized very slowly.
Only by 1931 they've come up with the specifications for three armored vehicle types for recon and battle.
At the same time they've started developing their own tanks.
They were called armored vehicles because the cavalry obviously couldn't have tanks, right?
The Renault company could offer only some… mediocre light tanks,
so the cavalry commandwent to the Somua — and it was a very smart decision.
The company started working on a new middle tank in 1934
tested the prototype in a year, and in 1936 it was already in service.
That was some fast work!
The new S 35 had a very modern and somewhat unusual construction.
The lowest part consisted of two halves with all the inside tech installed before they were joined together.
Then they were also covered with other two armoured parts
one in the front and the other in the back.
Those could survive a direct hit from the German 37-mm gun at middle-range battle distances.
At the same time, the 47-mm gun of the S 35 could easily pierce any German tank of the time.
The vehicle was also pretty agile.
The engine didn't have a lot of horsepower, but it had a very high torque.
The tank was easily controlled thanks to a high-end transmission that allowed turning on the spot,
and a comfortable steering wheel for the driver instead of levers.
The S 35 wasn't the best in the world if you considered all parameters separately,
but it turned out to be a really well-balanced machine.
Of course it had some disadvantages as well
like that one-man turret that we've been talking about in the previous episodes.
The infantry soldiers and command could laugh their lungs off cracking jokes about the cavalry horses
being fed petrol instead of water.
But in the end it was the cavalry who got the best French tank of that time period.
Moreover, it wasn't assembled in a number of separate military units
like the tanks of the infantry.
Instead, the S 35 were built directly in within a cavalry division,
which resulted in improved combat efficiency.
Still, it wasn't enough to stop the nightmare of the 1940.
After the defeat, the S 35 went to the Germans.
They've put them to use, installing their own radio sets and reconstructing the commander's cupola.
These tanks fought on the Eastern Front, guarded the homefront
and also served as training machines for drivers.
In 1944 the French got their hands on the S 35s again
and, used them to fight the previous owners.
Only after the war was over, these old tanks were finally decommissioned.
By the way, even before the war began, the French started improving the S 35 and created the S 40.
It was sturdier, faster and lower than its predecessor and also received a new turret
which was invincible to the German 37-mm gun — even up close!
The first S 40 tanks were planned to be introduced into service in July 1940,
but a month earlier, France capitulated, and none of those made it from the factory line.
Still, the defeat didn't mean the French stopped working on this tank series.
We've already mentioned in the previous episodes that even while being occupied
the FCM engineers secretly developed turrets for two and three crew members for the S 40
and reworked its whole construction.
The new tank became the SARL 12
with welded hull and a completely new turret with a 75-mm gun and a range scope.
The French were going to start the production of this tank right after they would overthrow the Germans
to help the Allies deal with them for good.
But the war lasted longer than expected, and by 1944,
when they were finally able to start the production, the SARL 12 became obsolete.
And now let's take a look at one of the new maps from the latest update…
Map Guide Middle East
Recently we've added two new locations for combined battles.
One of them is called the Middle East.
Some of you are already familiar with that one
it was once a part of the game during the April Fools event.
Since that time we've seriously reworked and updated the map,
so now's the perfect time to show it to you in all its glory.
We get into a Middle East town that's been destroyed by the war.
On the streets there are barricades and abandoned guns, almost all buildings are damaged…
Still, somehow an uptown garden managed to survive the chaos of war,
and the oil derricks near the factory keep doing what they were designed for.
The map is quite small and pretty open, despite the urban environment.
So beware of the enemies, shooting at you from the other end of the street.
But even open locations won't be a problem,
as there are three underground galleries in the key parts of the map.
They are conveniently situated to ease your passage from one capture point to another,
and concrete blocks above your head serve are a great protection from air strikes.
Now let's take a look at the key points of the map.
The A point is right near the mosque.
Despite the fact that there are some one storey buildings around it, this position is quite exposed
If you're in a small tank, you'll be able to take cover in the shadows of the buildings around
but it won't save you from flanking enemies, so stay vigilant.
From there on we take our trip to the next point
and by the way, here's that underground area we were talking about.
Also, don't forget to use your scope before setting out — there may be ambushes ahead.
Now while A is at least partially covered, the B point is even more exposed.
There is literally nowhere to hide.
You can pick any of these building around the point
and the enemy can still attack you from a dozen of directions.
So you need to approach it with maximum caution. Preferably — using the smokes.
The other strategy here is a bit simpler:
Just take the heaviest and the sturdiest tanks you've got in the hangar and run over anyone who gets in your way.
Up next is the C point that's found on the factory grounds.
You have to be extra cautious on the way there as well, because between the factory and the town
there is an empty road that makes a sitting duck out of any vehicle trying to cross it.
But when (or if) you get there, you can find some cover in the third underground gallery
that leads right to the center of the C point.
Basically, this is the safest place in the whole area. Other places are all exposed.
So if you're playing a light tank and came here first to capture the point
get out as soon as you do your deed.
Otherwise the heavier enemy tanks will get there
and you'll be stuck in this underground area until the end of the battle
which doesn't sound like a good time.
There are also a couple of interesting places in other parts of the map.
Like these rocks here. Remember them.
A small tank or a tank destroyer that gets here in time... can make its opponents life really really messy.
Get ready for the traditional last part of our show: Hotline! Developers answering questions from the comments!
Hotline
The first question comes from Jacopo Perugini:
"When will we get Italian tanks and Reggiane planes?"
Hi, mate. Last time we've answered a bit about the Italian tanks, in short — you'll see some of them this year.
As for the Reggiane planes — a few aircraft are in the works right now.
Can't give you an exact date, though.
We'll add them to the game when we're finished with them.
Another popular question was sent by HJ Kim:
"Gaijin! When will you produce modern tanks?"
Hi there! We tried introducing modern tanks during the April Fools event last year,
and, all things considered, it was a great test.
We weren't actually sure how our community would react to that addition.
We, of course, saw a lot of comments concerning modern vehicles on our forum,
on social networks and here in the comments as well.
But it was the April Fools that cemented our conviction.
You liked this experience, so the modern tanks will definitely appear in the game — this way or another.
Then there is a request from a user called Shieldmate:
"Will you add an international tech tree for countries that don't have enough vehicles for a tree of their own?"
Hi, mate! Firstly, we've answered this before.
The international tech tree idea is very appealing to us
and at some point it will probably it to the game.
So next you're gonna ask us, when will that happen, or what nation will be the first.
Let's think. Right now we have the Italians who haven't got their tanks yet.
We continue adding new machines to the Italian aircraft tree as well,
and also to all other six countries, both ground and air forces.
We are also going full speed towards the Closed Beta of the Naval battles and the World War mode launch.
So, it's pretty safe to say that we've got our hands pretty full for a few coming months, don't you think?
This doesn't mean though, that we don't work on the new nations.
As we've said before, it takes a lot of time to find and process all the technical data
and historical documents, and we do this work long before we announce anything.
We continue gathering information all the time.
Depending on how fast we can go and what information gets in our hands first,
we will decide on the next nation for War Thunder.
The last message comes from a player called Bruno Mikan:
«Do u kno da wei to the best tank in game?»
Is that this... queen thing?
Might want to check the British vehicles then...we guess.
That's it for today but feel free to write your questions in the comments below.
We do read them all, and you might see some of them answered in the next episode!

See you on the Shooting Range!
