What dop to put on the m41 bulldog. M41 "Bulldog Walker" - description, guide, characteristics, recommendations and reviews

Named Walker bulldog -
in honor of General Walton Harris Walker.
Wore another name - Little Bulldog.

In 1950-1953, during the war in Korea, the Americans used the M24 Chaffee light tank, which was put into service in 1944, for reconnaissance. He had a very high speed - 55 km / h, but in combat conditions due to the low engine power (110 hp) showed low maneuverability, and due to easy booking (25 mm - the thickness of the frontal armor of the case and 37 mm - towers) M24 was very vulnerable. Urgently needed a more reliable light tank with better maneuverability and enhanced weapons and protection. Shortly before the end of the war, development began. new car, designated T37. The first prototype - T37 Phase I - was ready in 1949. The second prototype T37 Phase II differed from it in its tower design and a new fire control system. This model received the new designation T41, and its slightly modified version of T41E1 was standardized as M41. At first, the tank received the nickname “Little Bulldog” (“Little Bulldog”), but a little later it was changed to “Walker Bulldog” (“Walker Bulldog”) in memory of General W. Walker, who tragically died in Korea in 1951.

The production of M41 was entrusted to the company Cadillac of the corporation General Motors, and in 1951 the first machines left the factory floor. The crew consisted of four people, three of whom were located in the tower, and the driver was in the front left on the control compartment. His seat was adjustable in height, and if necessary, the driver, along with the seat, could throw himself through the hatch in the bottom to the ground.

Compared to its predecessor, the M41 was better armed: it installed a new 76.2 mm long-barreled gun with an initial projectile speed of about 1000 m / s, equipped with a wedge bolt, a concentric recoil device and an ejection device for removing powder gases. The gun was mounted directly on the pins and covered with a pointed mask. The angle of descent of the gun was -9 °, and the elevation angle was + 19 °. The vertical and horizontal guidance is carried out by means of mechanisms with electro-hydraulic drives. For the gunner was provided with a telescopic sight with variable magnification. On some samples of the M41 tank mounted rangefinder sight.

The commander had his fire control system. On the M41A1 modification, the weapon installation was stabilized in two guidance planes. As auxiliary weapons, a 7.62 mm machine gun coaxial with a cannon and a 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine gun, which was mounted on the roof of the tower, were used. There was no course machine gun on the Walker Bulldog. At the development stage, it was supposed to equip the M41 with an automatic loading system, but it was not installed on serial machines. As an experiment, a 90-mm gun was installed on the M41 (this machine was designated T49), but the experiment did not go beyond the prototype.

The fighting compartment of the tank was equipped with a rotating policeman. Part of the ammunition was located in the bow of the hull to the right of the driver. A Continental gasoline 6-cylinder air-cooled engine was installed, equipped with a supercharger mounted on the shank of the crankshaft. The axial fan of the cooling system was located horizontally above the engine. The engine and transmission oil coolers were mounted with the fans on the sides of the engine in the transmission. Complex fuel tanks were located on the sides of the engine and at the engine bulkhead. On the modification M41A1 and M41A2, the engine was switched to direct injection of gasoline.

On Walker Bulldog, they used a new Allison transverse hydrodynamic Cross Drive hydromechanical transmission, which included a complex hydraulic transmission, a three-stage (two forward, one reverse) planetary gearbox and a multi-radial planetary differential type of rotation mechanism. The gearbox and the rotation mechanism were controlled by a hydraulic actuator from one handle swinging in two planes. The main elements of the transmission were combined with the engine in one unit. In the undercarriage of the tank, tracks with rubber-metal hinges and a rubber coating of the inner surface of the tracks, track rollers of medium diameter with rubber bandages and support rollers were used.

The independent suspension uses torsion bars, supplemented by buffer springs, and telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers. The front rollers and steering wheels were linked by compensating devices. In general, the chassis of the M41 had much in common with the corresponding nodes of the M24 Chaffee. With the help of special equipment, the tank could cross a ford up to 2.5 m deep. The M41 light tank participated in many military conflicts, during which it was used for reconnaissance, infantry fire support and, despite a rather large mass, was armed with airborne troops . It was removed from the armament of the US Army for a long time, but has long been used in the armies of Austria, Denmark, Greece, Japan, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, Chile, Thailand, Taiwan and other countries. A total of 5500 cars of this type were produced.

In Brazil, about 300 M41 went through modernization, after which they received the designation M41B. They installed a 90-mm cannon, a diesel engine with a capacity of 400 liters. with. and new fuel tanks. The cruising range has increased to 600 km, and the combat weight is up to 25 tons. The Danes equipped 50 of their M41s with diesel engines with a capacity of 465 liters. with., a laser sight range finder, thermal imaging devices, fire fighting equipment and a filter-ventilation unit. A modified turret with an Israeli 60-mm cannon was installed on 150 cars of the Spanish armed forces, giving the armor-piercing subcaliber projectile an initial speed of 1620 m / s, a fire control system and a diesel engine. Based on the M41, the following were created: 105-mm self-propelled howitzer M52, 155-mm self-propelled howitzer M44 and anti-aircraft self-propelled gun M42. A mounted bulldozer with hydraulic controls has been developed.

Description

The American light tank, developed after the Second World War, had a classic layout, a crew of 4 people and a combat weight of 23.2 tons. Armed with a 76 mm M32 rifled gun with a 60-barrel long barrel and two machine guns: 12.7 Browning M2HB anti-aircraft guns and a 7.62 Browning M1919A4E1 coaxial gun. The M41A1 was designed to replace the already obsolete M24 Chaffee.

Main characteristics

Armor protection and survivability

Booking a tank of 32 mm maximum, which in the realities of its combat rating indicates that there is no armor. Any anti-aircraft gun, and sometimes a 12.7 mm machine gun, can penetrate this armor and damage the modules and crew of this tank. Armor for a “bulldog” is mobility and the ability to avoid return fire. Sometimes, there are ricochets from the "cheeks" of the turret and the mask of the gun, and it also happens that the chamber fuses do not fire an fuse for such thin armor - but this is so rare that you should not hope for it.

Mobility

The low weight and a good indicator of the specific power of the engine provide the tank with quite high mobility, which allows it to quite successfully perform flanking maneuvers, as well as quickly climb various heights both on roads and outside them. The maximum speed when driving over rough terrain is 41 km / h. Although this indicator is higher on the roads, the declared maximum 72 km / h will be obtained only when descending from a hill. Also, due to its light weight, the tank has one feature - at high speed it can roll over when hitting a wooden fence or similar wooden obstacles. Speed \u200b\u200bback - 18 km / h.

Armament

Main gun

The main weapon of the tank is the 76 mm M32 rifled gun. Its starting ammunition includes an armor-piercing pointed-headed solid projectile M339 with a penetration of 180 mm and a high-explosive fragmentation M352 with a penetration of 12 mm. As is clear from the figures, with the first type of projectile the machine cannot show outstanding results, the characteristics of armor penetration do not allow for confident penetration of many heavy (and even some medium) tanks. The next projectile is the M319 armor-piercing sub-caliber projectile with a 208 mm penetration, which allows penetrating any enemy encountered at a certain angle. The last, and the best, projectile is the M331A2 armor-piercing sub-caliber projectile with a penetration of 232 mm, which makes the gun of this tank perfect for its B.R. The first shot should disarm the enemy, damaging him the gunner or the breech of the gun, then immobilize him, and then methodically disable crew members. The gun also has good vertical guidance angles: from -10 degrees to +20

A 7.62 mm machine gun is paired with a cannon; its ammunition capacity is 4,900 rounds. Anti-aircraft 12.7 mm machine gun M2 mounted on the roof of the tower at the commander's hatch. There are 2175 rounds of ammunition for this machine gun.

Machine gun weapons

Course and anti-aircraft machine guns not only allow you to fight with airplanes, they are also effective against lightly armored vehicles. Evaluate machine gun weapons and give recommendations on its use.

Combat use

M41A1 is a logical development of the branch of American light tanks - a mobile, weakly armored unit with a good gun, designed for flank detours and daring raids behind enemy lines. An engine with a capacity of 500 hp is able to accelerate the Bulldog up to 40 km / h on the ground forward and up to 10 km / h back, which gives it excellent dynamics for the performance of its tasks. The M331A2 projectile with ammunition shells with a 232 mm breakdown and a reload of 6.6 seconds allows you to effectively hit all opponents that you may encounter this car. On the other hand, due to the fact that the shell is sub-caliber, the area of \u200b\u200bdestruction is extremely small, due to the specifics of this type of ammunition. Therefore, for effective action on the tank, it will be necessary to study the weaknesses and locations of the modules and crew members of potential opponents. It has armor as such only in theory, because most often even 20-mm guns can penetrate it and cause damage to modules or the crew. It is for this reason that the tank often suffers from enemy anti-aircraft self-propelled guns. Also, the “Bulldog” has rather large dimensions, in the side projection it is even larger than the IS-2 - therefore, good knowledge of the maps and the landscape on them is necessary for skillfully avoiding the eyes of the enemy.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages:

• The top sub-caliber breaks through enough armor for its rank
• A powerful engine and low mass as a whole allow more or less expeditious movement on the battlefield
• Pretty high rate of fire
• Large-caliber anti-aircraft machine gun
• There is a NVD

Disadvantages:

• The reservation is purely bulletproof. M41A1 is evenly pierced through the front by anti-aircraft guns; artillery and air bombs are a serious danger;
• A machine of quite big dimensions - to notice and get on this tank is as easy as shelling pears. This is worth remembering constantly;
• Lack of stabilizer - the gun sways for a very long time after stopping, which is a serious drawback for a light tank;
• Stock shells have low armor impact, and are also prone to ricochets and non-penetration. As the main one, it makes sense to use only the top-end subcaliber;
• Low speed of vertical guidance;
• Sight low magnification does not allow firing at long distances.

History reference

"Bulldogs before commissioning"

M41 in Vietnam

The light tank M41 Walker Bulldog, designed to replace the M24 Chaffee and being an enlarged copy of it, began to be designed in 1946, despite the fact that the concept of this machine originated in 1942, during the development of the medium tank T20. Therefore, in terms of its combat weight, the T37 (prototype M41) approached the weight of the first modifications of the Soviet T-34 medium tank, and surpassed it in terms of armament power.

Already in 1949, the first version of the new light tank, the T37-I, was equipped with a 76.2 mm M32 gun. The next version of the T37-II installed a tower of a new form with a reinforced mask. The machine was equipped with a gun stabilization system and a range finder, as well as improved shelving racks for ammunition. On the T37-III modification, which later became the M41 light tank, automation reached a new level: an automatic loader was installed, and the gun stabilization system was replaced with a new one manufactured by IBM.

In 1950, the car was adopted under the M41 index Little Bulldog, but later, after the death in Korea as a result of a car accident of General W. Walker, it was renamed Walker Bulldog. In the same year, the Cadillac Motor Car M41 Walker Bulldog was put into mass production and entered the army in 1951.

The combat weight of the new tank was 23.5 tons. A 6-cylinder Continental AOS-895-3 air-cooled gas engine with 500 hp was installed on it. Cruising on the highway at M41 was 161 km. The car developed a speed of 72 km / h. Booking a light tank ranged from 13 to 32 mm, depending on the location of the reservation.

The M41 Walker Bulldog was equipped with a 76.2 mm M32 gun with 57 unitary shots. The machine installed a 7.62 mm Browning M1919A4E1 machine gun coaxial with the main gun and 5000 rounds, as well as a 12.7 mm Browning M2NV machine gun with 2175 rounds. The light tank was also equipped with 8 smoke grenade installations. The crew of the car was 4 people.

M41, produced until the end of the 50s, was produced in the amount of 3,729 units (according to other sources - 5,500). The main modifications of the M41 Walker Bulldog were: pre-production prototype T41; M41A1 (1953); M41A2 (1956); M41A3 (1958); M41DK1 - 80s car for ground forces  Denmark M41D - for armed forces  Taiwan. Based on the M41 Walker Bulldog ZSU M42 Duster, self-propelled guns M44, self-propelled guns M52 and M75 armored personnel carrier were produced.

Having reached the Korean Peninsula before the end of hostilities, the M41 Walker Bulldog replaced the M24 light tank in units. However, the M41 did not stay long in combat units: its considerable size and heavy weight did not allow the machine to be used as a reconnaissance tank. For the same reasons, the transfer of the M41 from one battlefield to another was comparable to transporting a medium tank.

Based on the principle of “God bless me, I’m not worth it," the "light" M41 taken out of service with the US Army began to be transferred and sold to the armed forces of other countries: Austria, Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Great Britain, Northern (like trophies) and South Vietnam, Guatemala, Greece, etc.

Nevertheless, despite its unsuitability (according to the US military), the M41 Walker Bulldog was able to participate in numerous wars in various hot spots in the world.

Equipped in 1961 with M41 machines a brigade of “5206” mercenaries who landed on Playa Giron to overthrow the communist government of Cuba, the United States rendered service to the USSR. The loss of the landing amounted to five tanks in battle and the same amount during the retreat. Subsequently, the Cubans transported one of the cars to the Soviet Union. During the next conflict, between Somalia and Ethiopia in 1964, the Ethiopian M41 Walker Bulldog, meeting in battle the Somali T-54/55 tanks, could not give the latter a worthy rebuff. In the battles for the settlement of Jijigu, the Somalis destroyed about 9 M41.

In 1965, American light tanks were also supplied to the regime of South Vietnam, which involved them in battles with the Viet Cong. Later, the M41 was widely used during the Vietnam War, participating, for example, in the 1971 Lam son 719 offensive, where they managed to destroy a certain amount of North Vietnamese armored vehicles. The offensive failed, and in the course of the subsequent retreat, a certain amount of M41 was thrown. These vehicles entered service with the troops of North Vietnam. But overall, these light tanks did not play a significant role during the conflict. For example, in one of the battles of 1972 for the village of Tan Chang, the North Vietnamese T-54 entered into battle with five M41s and destroyed them all.

Walker Bulldog was also involved in the civil conflict in Lebanon in the 80s. last century. Nevertheless, despite all the failures in local conflicts, a number of M41 Walker Bulldog were in service with individual countries in the early 2000s.

M41 Walker Bulldog – american tankdeveloped in the late 40s. In total, more than three thousand vehicles of this type were produced, which were in service with the US Army and exported. However, the tank was not recognized as the most successful, and already in the 60s it was removed from service.

The game is presented as a light tank VIII level. Investigated for 111700 experience, the purchase price is 2400000 loans.

Security

Given that the car belongs to the class of light tanks, you should not hope for armor, it actually is not: 25 mm each on the sides of the hull and turret. Safety margin is 1000 units.

Armament

The gun is distinguished only by the fact that as the main ammunition is used subcaliber projectile with a fairly high flight speed. More she is not remarkable. Accuracy and speed of information is quite normal, at least for a light tank. The average damage is 170 units, and the armor penetration is 175 mm with conventional ammunition and 210 premium cumulative projectiles. Given that the tank will fall to the ninth and tenth levels, premium shells will have to be used quite often, otherwise it is simply impossible to penetrate anyone.

Mobility

But with the mobility of the "Bulldog" no problem. It accelerates to 68 km / h, and does it very quickly, because its specific power is 34 hp / t. Itself is very maneuverable and easy to drive.

Equipment and crew

Installed on the tank enlightened optics, stereo tube and camouflage net. This option will provide a good overview of both static and moving machines and stealth. However, instead of the network, you can install reinforced aiming drives if you prefer an active game and shootouts with enemies. But the review should not be touched in any case.

The first skill the commander must have "Sixth Sense"and the rest of the crew "Disguise". The second is desirable to study the "Battle Brotherhood", it will slightly improve all the characteristics, and most importantly, add a review. The player chooses the third skill at his discretion.

Game tactics

Previously, the “Bulldog” was at the seventh level, had an excellent cannon with a drum for ten shells, and was one of the most unpleasant opponents. For shooting one drum, he could destroy any opponent of their level  and most opponents level up. But these times are gone, after the rebalance of light tanks and nerfs "Bulldog" moved to eighth level and lost the drum cannon. This radically affected his gameplay, and not in the best way.

Now this tank is not capable of sudden attacks with quick firing of the enemy. Yes, he has the highest damage per minute at the level, but he still needs to be implemented, and to do this with such modest indicators of armor penetration and one-time damage is not so simple. The main targets are the enemy’s light and medium tanks, there is absolutely no sense in shooting with “strands”. In battles with ninth and especially with tenth levels, the lion's share of experience comes from the damage that allies inflict on detected enemies. It’s worth remembering that this car worst eighth camouflage disguise indicatorThis requires increased care.

The Bulldog remains generally not the worst tank, but playing it is boring. Weak armament and lack of strengths make it rather inexpressive and uninteresting.

In the game World of Tanks, you can distinguish many fireflies that will bring the team victory. They are very different, but, despite their performance characteristics, they must provide assistance to the allies. One of those fireflies that can really decide the outcome of the game is the M41 Bulldog. Before we figure out how to play them, we learn its historical value.

Historical summary

After designing the Bulldog was sent to the conveyor under the responsibility of the Cadillac Motor Car. The first copies came to the world in 1951. But in the early 60s, it was decided that the tank was not good enough, and they stopped releasing it. Despite this verdict of the Americans, other countries exploited this machine, modifying it for themselves and their goals.

By the way, the M41 Bulldog turned out to be a rather “flexible” tank and, no matter how it was changed, it became better and better. For example, in 1953, the M41A1 modification came out, which was used in hostilities. The machine was different in that it increased ammunition by 8 shells. After 3 years, the next variation of the car came out - M41A2, then the engine was replaced, thereby increasing the range of the tank.

In the 80s of the 20th century, Denmark, adopting an American LT, modernized it to the M41DK1, changing the engine and night vision devices. The M41D version was created for the troops of Taiwan, a new gun and various more modern instruments were installed.

The M41 tank changed dramatically, as a result, self-propelled anti-aircraft mounts, howitzers, artillery mounts  and even an armored personnel carrier.

Some countries use RT in our time. For example, Uruguay uses its modification of this tank, and China and Thailand had it in service as of 2007.

The performance characteristics of the game

In World of Tanks M41, the Bulldog Walker is a light tank of the seventh level of the US branch. Its price is 1 million 370 thousand silver. Health in RT - 860 units. Overview the tank has 380 m, and communication - 410 m. These indicators relate to the tank not pumped. When you pump the firefly completely, it will increase its health - up to 910 units. Also, the review will be 400 m, and communication - as much as 745 m.

Ammunition in the top leveling contains 65 shells and has damage 150/150/185. Rate of Fire - 13.95 rounds per min. These indicators, of course, depend on which weapon you choose. Just as the speed depends on the engine, and maneuverability - on the chassis.

Like other tanks, the M41 Bulldog has its advantages and disadvantages. A guide can tell only about the main minuses / pluses of the car, but you can only find the truth in battle. For each player, different aspects of the tank are important, and therefore, for one minus, for another it can be a plus. Nevertheless, in general terms, one can single out from the merits a good gun that you can choose to your taste, excellent speed and dynamics, excellent aiming and visibility, as well as a good PDM.

Of the shortcomings, it is worth noting that this tank is “cardboard”, the cost of gold shells is unreasonably high. Often, a bulldog explodes in the Bulldog, and for LT it is quite large. Also, some players are unhappy with the long reload of the drum.

Where to punch?

The answer to this question, especially for experienced players, is obvious. Those who are "in the tank" should once again turn to the reservation of the car and its class. Recall that the M41 Bulldog Walker is a light tank that survives only because of its speed. This "cardboard" can save only the skill of the player to dodge shells. Anyone and from anywhere can flash LT. Therefore, it makes no sense to even talk about any specific places where this machine should be targeted. And if you are also lucky, you can safely charge a land mine.

What equipment to put and how to pump the crew?

Requires M41 "Bulldog" equipment depending on the tactics of the game. If you decide to be aggressive, then you need to recharge in accuracy and buy yourself a vertical stabilizer, enlightened optics and improved ventilation. If you want to be a real helper and choose an ambush tactic, buy reinforced aiming drives, and a stereo tube.

Also for better game  You will need to pump the crew, depending on your goals. It is best to pump in a light bulb and repair at first, then disguise, this is especially useful for ambush tactics. After that, you can already take the "Eagle Eye", "King of the impassability", "Desperate" and the smooth rotation of the tower. Do not forget about the military fraternity.

How to play?

As you already understood, the question of how to play on the M41 “Bulldog Walker” suggests two answers. Aggressive tactics are best chosen by experienced players who can handle tank control, they know weak spots  opponents and in which case they will quickly make the right decision. Aggression to the tank gives its damage from the drum. An RT can easily pick up an adversary with one and a half thousand health units. Although, again, it is important to know where medium tanks and strands make their way.

Those who are just getting acquainted with light tanks should choose the position of ambush tactics. Thus, you may not do much damage, but guaranteed to shine on it. In addition, if your crew will be pumped into disguise, you can and quietly shoot from an ambush.

M41 Bulldog  guide review on the tank what equipment to put and what perks to pump to the crew, as well as video on the tank how to tank how to play on it to get silver and experience. M41 Bulldog  This is a kind of tank.

For its level, it has a good gun, by the way, I advise you not to put a top gun on it, and which with a drum it has mega many shells as many as 10 pieces, I don’t know what the potato was guided by screwing such a capacious drum and where the crew is among 10 shells))).

But the fact remains and put this gun of grief you will not know. You need to play the outdoor game, it is advisable to move from place to place by shooting damage. Fortunately, the speed and stealth of the tank allows this. Wonderful vertical angles also do the trick. You can shoot damage as usual medium tank  leaning out of the hill.

Advantages of the M41 Bulldog tank

1. Excellent speed allows you to quickly escape from the light.
2. A very worthy weapon with a good DPM of almost 2000 damage per minute, though the cd of the drum is long, but 10 shells are no joke to you.
3. Good vertical aiming angles allow you to play almost without noticing inconvenience.

Disadvantages of M41 Bulldog

1. As usual with light tanks, this is their cardboard and small hp.
2. Ammunition criticized almost every battle
3. Gold shells are very mediocre penetration, but at the same time expensive. Although who puts them on the drum))) 10 shells will leave you without pants and underpants, perhaps too.
4. The reloading of the drum could be less, although with 10 shells it is almost not needed at all. So those are the disadvantages.
5. The dimensions of the tank are also bolshevaty and if it was made a little smaller then of course it would be better.

M41 bulldog what equipment to put.

Well, firstly, this is necessarily a camouflage network, secondly optics and thirdly horns if you are a fan of shining enemies, and if not, put optics ventilation and anti-shatter breakdown so that there are less crits.

m41 bulldog what perks to swing the crew.

Well, firstly, those who like to shine need to deflate the commander with a light for everyone else to repair or disguise, then whoever has the disguise deflated, then the eagle's eye is a vindictive smooth turn of the tower and then the battle fraternity to everyone. To make it clearer I will give a picture below the perks, otherwise you will get confused.
