World of Tanks Maus

WOT Maus: the real-life prototype and its story

Maus is one of the largest military tanks in the world. This monster was presented in 1943-1944, in late years of Second World War. The tank was a really scary weapon that could destroy any other military machine and could hit objects distanced on more than 3 500 meters.

First version of the tank had weight of 100 tons. However, after some upgrades tank's weight raised up to 200 tons. A huge machine had thick armour that made it almost unstoppable. Front hull armour was 220 mm thick, sides of the hull – 190 mm. The turret armor was around 240 mm thick. The mantle armour – 250 mm thick.

Massive military machine had also some serious minuses. Tank had a low speed – around 20 km/h. However, even being slow it needed lots of fuel to keep driving. In condition of aggressive fight fuel could finish too fast, putting machine and its crew into a great risk of being stacked on enemy territory.

Another issue – absence of a gun for close fight. While having a super power for long-distance shots, Maus appeared helpless when enemies come closer. This feature is especially critical when combined with slow speed of a machine: in case of army's stepback, crew would have to leave an expensive machine.

World of Tanks Maus: characteristics of game's tier

Huge German Maus is one of the biggest WOT giants that looks unwinnable. The WOT tank has great armour protection: hull armour – 200/185/160 mm, turret armour – 260/210/210 mm. While these features look impressive, it is still possible to win over Maus.

The tank has several weak points with less armour protection, they are: sides and rear of the machine, lower glacis plate in frontal part of a tank and cheeks of the turret. Even experienced gamers believe its difficult to win over Maus. However, a powerful gun with high accuracy will penetrate weakly armoured placed bringing great damage to a huge giant.

While being one of the heaviest tanks aimed mostly for distanced fighting, Maus also has great accuracy and can direct its fire to enemy's object.
