Mar 26, 2023 · The Jumbo Pershing (E5) is probably the objectively better of the two. Its 90mm gun is still potent, even if it doesn't have quite the penetration that the long 90 of the Super Pershing (E1-1), however, also has about half the reload (16.2 vs 9.7 on base crew).

Jun 21, 2024 · The T26E5 has a lot more armor than the regular M26. People usually refer to it as the “jumbo Pershing”. Iirc offhand it has like 50mm more hull armor and something like 75mm more turret armor. I remember parts of the turret being 177mm. Trade off is heavier weight and lack of a more powerful engine means it is not as mobile.

Jan 19, 2023 · As the other guy said, the T26E5 is comparatively better at CQC compared to the T34 mainly because of its small size, faster reload, and shorter gun. Although outside of CQC, the T34, in my opinion, is better, especially at longer ranges. The reason is quite obvious: big-ass and long-ass gun. As for researching, it entirely depends on you.

Jan 7, 2022 · For future readers.... In my opinion Astron, Chrysler, and Renegade are all better. Chrysler is your tier 8 slow heavy armor (not good against higher tiers) Renegade is a manueverable heavy (again of course lacks against higher tiers as armor becomes less useful) Astron is a manueverable med. auto loader (but can play better hit and run against higher …

Feb 5, 2024 · The mobility of the M26 isn’t noticeably better than the T26E5. The horsepower/ton is higher, but the T26E5 has higher final drive gear ratios which means the acceleration remains similar. It’s only the top speed which is worse, so it only matters in longer paths.

The T26E5 used to be one of the tanks everyone screamed "pay to win!" about, but it has since been surpassed. These days I would strongly recommend the Renegade instead. The Renegade is better in basically every stat, except shell cost (per damage). The cupola on the Renegade is also a lot easier to pen.

Jun 30, 2023 · T26e5 RB Ground I just got the t26e5 and i was wondering if I should focus on getting a better light tank, like the m56 or t92, or if I should focus on getting the t26e1-1, or should I get some medium tanks, like the t25 or m26

Oct 30, 2021 · The mantlet is 177mm thick now, which I believe is still not enough. As for the lower plate, for some reasons whoever made the model for Gaijin placed it at a lower constructional angle than that of the normal Pershing, despite the fact that both the T26E5 and M26 shared the same slope on the lower plate.

Mar 16, 2021 · T26E5(Patriot) isn’t the best tank especially in 2021 imho. CAX has wild dpm and might get into situations where you can put 2 shots instead of 1 way more often than Patriot. And that very same CAX isn’t considered anywhere near the best T8. Armor on Patriot is meh, speed is solid, but not like medium + ofc camo is bad.
