[Tank Guide] SMV CC-56

Commanders,

The new Italian tank destroyer line has a new unique autoloader feature which begins with the  VII SMV CC-56 ! Built with strong frontal armor, this tank destroyer has a straightforward playstyle that close-ranged brawlers are used to.

Let's have a look at what the  VII SMV CC-56  can do in battle!

The  VII SMV CC-56  is noticeably different from its predecessors. Starting with this TD, the branch begins to take on its main features, offering you an idea of what the gameplay of the high-tier vehicles will be.

The SMV CC-56 is equipped with a rotating turret but limited turret traverse angles (30 degrees to either side, 60 degrees in total). The turret and frontal armor are quite solid, so you can rely on them in close-range combat. However, what makes this vehicle so dangerous is its 105 mm gun that features an autoloader with a non-standard configuration (more on that below), as well as good depression and elevation angles (–10/+20 degrees).

Not Your Classic Autoloader: How It Works

Unlike high-tier medium and heavy Italian tanks, Tier VII–X tank destroyers are equipped with a drum-type autoloader. However, this is not the classic autoloader that you might play on some popular French vehicles.

The SMV CC-56's autoloader has 3 shells with 320 HP of alpha damage. The full reload time is 17.26 seconds, and between shots—surprise! — a whopping 7 seconds! This may seem strange on paper, but in practice, an autoloader with these unique parameters is perfect for trying out new tactics and keeping your opponents on their toes.

Equipment




Hover the mouse cursor over each image for detailed information

This vehicle works best in close-range. To make the most of it in battle, prepare your vehicle with Improved Aiming to hasten your shot preparations. Since the SMV CC-56 will often be in the face of danger, improve its survivability with Improved Hardening.

Use hull down tactics whenever possible. Its turret has 260 mm of armor that can withstand damage from the same tier and some higher tier guns too.

Hover the mouse cursor over each image for detailed information

Prioritize learning skills in the following order:

  1. Commander: "Sixth Sense" Perk
  2. Gunner: "Snap Shot" Skill
  3. Driver: "Smooth Ride" Skill
  4. Loader: "Safe Stowage" Skill

It is essential for the Commander to acquire the "Sixth Sense" perk. This should be your top priority. The next skill/perk is the "Repair" skill for every member of your crew.

Having "Snap Shot" improves accuracy during turret rotation which will come in handy when it's crunch time on the frontlines.

The "Smooth Ride" skill helps reduce dispersion while shooting on the move. It also reduces the aim time needed when the vehicle is stationary.

Learning the "Safe Stowage" skill increases the durability of your ammo rack to reduce the chances of undesirable explosions.

Designated Target comes into effect after it reaches 100%. If two Gunners have the Perk, the effect is not cumulative.

Deadeye 

This Perk increases the chance to critically damage enemy vehicle modules and Crew. 

Deadeye comes into effect after it reaches 100%, and is only effective with AP and APCR shells.

Smooth Ride

This Skill improves accuracy when firing on the move. Smooth Ride does not affect the vehicle when stationary or rotating, and is more effective when combined with Vertical Stabilizer.

Effectiveness increases with skill level.

Off-Road Driving 

This Skill reduces ground resistance when driving on soft and moderately soft terrain. Lower ground resistance increases vehicle maneuverability and acceleration. The Skill is more effective when combined with Additional Grousers.

The effect increases with Skill level.

Clutch Braking

This Skill increases vehicle rotation speed. Clutch Breaking is more effective when combined with Additional Grousers, Lend-Lease Oil, Removed Speed Governor, 100-octane Gasoline, and 105-octane Gasoline.

Effectiveness increases with skill level

Preventative Maintenance

The Perk reduces the chance of engine fire by preventing gas or oil leakage in the engine compartment. 

The Perk comes into effect after it reaches 100%.

Controlled Impact

This Skill decreases ramming damage to your vehicle and increases ramming damage to an enemy vehicle. Controlled Impact is effective only while both vehicles are in motion, except when two allied vehicles collide.

The effect increases with Skill level.

Situational Awareness

This Skill extends View Range. Situational Awareness is more effective when combined with Recon.

The effect increases with Skill level. If two Radio Operators have the Skill, only the higher rating is effective.

Call for Vengeance

This Perk enables a Radio Operator who survived the destruction of his vehicle to report enemy positions for another two seconds. 

Call for Vengeance comes into effect after it reaches 100%. If two Radio Operators have the Perk, the effect is not cumulative.

Signal Boosting

This Skill extends Signal Range. 

The effect increases with Skill level. If two Radio Operators have the Skill, only the higher rating is effective.

Relaying 

This Skill extends Signal Range of allied communications within vehicle's radio coverage. If two Radio Operators have the Skill, only the higher rating is effective.

Safe Stowage

This Perk increases ammo rack durability (the shells do not come into contact with each other).  This Perk is more effective when combined with "Wet" Ammo Rack.

Safe Stowage comes into effect after it reaches 100%. If two Loaders have the Perk, the effect is not cumulative.

Adrenaline Rush

This Perk accelerates gun loading if the vehicle has less than 10% of its hit points left. Adrenaline Rush is more effective when combined with Gun Rammer.

Adrenaline Rush comes into effect after it reaches 100%. If two Loaders have the Perk, the effect is not cumulative.

Intuition

This Perk creates a chance that the proper shell is already loaded when switching between shell types. The gun must be completely loaded before the Perk can be used again.
