The developers of World of tanks announced which premium tanks will soon appear in the game. In WoT, first of all, there will be premium tanks, of those classes that are not yet available for this and those nations, that is we can expect the appearance in World of tanks of a premium medium tank of level 7-8 of the USSR, an American anti-tank self-propelled gun, a German ST of level 8, an English heavy tank of the eighth level.
Panther Ausf F
The Panther Ausf F is a modification of the German Panther tank armed with an 8.8cm L/71 gun mounted in a Schmalturm turret.
Panther Ausf F in World of tanks
Panther Ausf F will become a premium tank of the eighth level in World of tanks. According to the characteristics in the Wot Panther Ausf F, it will in many ways resemble the non-premium Panther (in terms of speed, maneuverability, hull armor). However, on the upgraded Panther, the best gun is the 7.5cm L/100, while the Panther Ausf F will have the 8.8cm L/71 gun. Let's compare the characteristics of these guns.
Thus, the new premium tank will get a more powerful weapon than the Panther has.
Panther Ausf F can be called a transitional version from the first Panther to the second. From the first, the new Panther Ausf F tank received a hull and chassis, from the second, a turret and a gun.
M56 Scorpion in World of tanks
American tank destroyer M56 Scorpion will soon appear in World of tanks and will become a premium anti-tank self-propelled gun.
M56 self-propelled gun with a 90 mm M54 caliber gun mounted in an open wheelhouse. The M56 was equipped with a six-cylinder carburetor engine with a capacity of 165 hp, which made it possible to develop a speed of 45 km / h. The crew of the M56 Scorpion consisted of four people.
The developers plan to add a premium Soviet MT of the seventh or eighth level to the game. It was assumed that this tank could be the T-122-85 or T-44-122. These combat vehicles were tested, but they were not suitable for the eighth level, their further fate is still unknown.
British FV215b will become premium
The British heavy tank FV215b will become premium. For the role of the top tank in Britain, the developers of World of tanks found a more suitable combat vehicle. And FV215b, which is a product of KB Wargaming, will be moved to the eighth level and will receive premium status. Whether the premium FV215b will be gifted to players who upgraded its researched version is still unknown.
Video about T-28 Concept and other premium tanks
The T-28 Concept will be located on the seventh level. This combat vehicle is a prototype of the American T-28 self-propelled gun. The T-28 Concept has a very unusual cabin, in which the gun can rotate through angles of more than 90 degrees.
The new T-28 Concept tank destroyer will combine the advantages of the T-28 and T-28 Prototype - powerful armor and a gun with good aiming angles.
What is World of Tanks enCore RT?

Who developed the World of Tanks enCore RT program?
Like the updated Core engine, World of Tanks enCore RT is fully developed by the Wargaming team.
What will the current update of the Core engine bring to World of Tanks?
The main innovation is support for qualitatively new, softer and more realistic shadows.

New shadows will appear for all "live" gaming equipment (excluding destroyed vehicles) that are exposed to sunlight. We talked more about ray tracing technology and its capabilities in a special article.
worldoftanks.ru
Do I need a dedicated graphics card with hardware ray tracing acceleration to experience the new shadow quality?
No, not needed. Tracing technology runs on all graphics cards that support the DirectX 11 API and later.
What levels of graphics settings are there in World of Tanks enCore RT?
The program offers a choice of 3 sets (presets) of graphics quality settings: "Minimum", "Medium", "Ultra". We've also added a new setting that controls the level of shadow quality when ray tracing is enabled. It can be found in the graphics settings menu. You can enable/disable tracing technology for all levels of graphics, choosing the degree of elaboration - "Off", "High", "Maximum" and "Ultra".
What is included in the enCore RT graphics presets?
Sets (presets) of graphics quality - "Minimum", "Medium" and "Ultra" - differ in screen resolution and quality of textures, lighting, shadows, landscape, water, particles, etc. In all sets, you can change the resolution, and presets "Medium" and Ultra can be adjusted for things like anti-aliasing and the quality of ray-traced shadows. Next to the parameter values that have been changed, you will see a special gear icon.
World of Tanks enCore RT gives a message: “Error while testing performance. Please try restarting." What to do?
If this or another error occurs, please contact the Customer Support Center.
Will ray-traced shadow support be enabled by default when the game starts?
No, this feature is activated manually by the player in the graphics settings in the game client. Want to see how your favorite tanks will be transformed with ray tracing technology? Just turn it on in the settings and get ready to be amazed!
Why is World of Tanks enCore RT scoring my computer and not showing FPS?
The points adequately reflect the performance of the computer and make it possible to compare your result with others. If your computer scores 10,000 points or more, this is an excellent result, which means that there will be no “brakes” and sharp drops in FPS at the selected quality level. A score of 8001 and above ("gold") is excellent, 3001-8000 points ("silver") is good, up to 3000 points ("bronze") is acceptable.
What operating systems does World of Tanks enCore RT support?
World of Tanks enCore RT supports Windows 7/8/10.
What are the minimum system requirements for World of Tanks enCore RT?
The same as the main World of Tanks client. You can see them on the official website of the game.
How does World of Tanks enCore RT interact with antivirus software?
Some antiviruses may block World of Tanks enCore RT.
I have two video cards. How will World of Tanks enCore RT work in this case?
World of Tanks enCore RT is optimized for using only one video card. If you have a device with two video cards that work in NVIDIA SLI or AMD CrossFire mode, or in another similar mode, then it is better to disable it and use one video card when starting World of Tanks enCore RT - otherwise the program may not work correctly. If you have a laptop with an integrated and discrete graphics card, then specify in the driver settings that World of Tanks enCore RT starts using a discrete one.
By version 9.17, the developers promise new tanks in World of Tanks. This will be the technique of the Swedish nation. It also includes a mixed branch of heavy, medium, light tanks and a separate branch of tank destroyers.
The very first tank you can get is the Tier 1 Strv fm/21, a small light tank.

The last light tank in this tree is the Strv m/40L, tier three. It has an unusual hull and convenient gun aiming angles.
Next, get acquainted with the medium Swedish tanks
The medium tank of the fourth level is Lago.
The fifth level is represented by the Strv m/42 tank, which has a 15-degree gun angle.
The Tier 6 Strv 74 CT will be equipped with one of the best guns for its tier.
The seventh level will bring players Leo - this is the fastest tank at its level with high damage, he is the last CT in the branch.
The 8th tier heavy tank Emil I has strong armor and a four-round drum gun. The car develops a speed of about 50 km per hour.
Emil II is a tier 9 heavy tank. Designed for stealth attacks, it has strong armor and good armor penetration.
Kranvagn is a Tier 10 Heavy with a low profile and heavy armor. The low reload speed is compensated by a good gun depression angle.
There will also be "gifts" for fans of anti-tank equipment
Tank destroyers from the second to the fourth level - Pvlvv fm / 42, Ikv 72 and Sav m / 43. These are the usual PTs for playing at low levels. They have a good declination angle, low profile, but weak armor.
Ikv 103, Ikv 65 Alt II and Ikv 90 Typ B vehicles of the fifth, sixth and seventh levels. They are not afraid of maps with sand dunes, hills and other irregularities due to the angle of the gun. They have thin armor.
From the eighth to the tenth level, UDES 03, Strv 103-0, Strv 103B are represented. These are typically siege ATs.
Players should take advantageous positions and wait for the light of the enemy. The machine is quite bad for shooting on the move, but it is excellent at firing from cover. The armor, though weak, but with the right slope can reflect enemy damage.
New tanks in World of Tanks will be presented soon. Each player will be able to find a tank that he likes in this branch.
