The T-55 Becomes Untouchable - T-55AMD-1 - War Thunder 

The option to help teammates with repairs with any vehicle is one of the best additions of this update imo.

APS stock. Fire Extinquisher upgrade. cause that makes sense.

The APS works 100 percent of the time (If the missile travels slower than 700 m/s and is in the right direction) but if you move while a missile comes towards you, the explosion will still damage your tank. You kinda need to drive slow or stop for it to work the best.

I hope they add a T-62 with Drozd, it would be very fun!

Hey this tank and AMD have one thing in common: slow drivers...

the "don't aim for the gun" tip reminds me, I've shot at merkava breeches the past few weeks and the shots like to do no damage, ricochet inside of the tank, and pass out the back without killing anything. Soft buff? Maybe.

14:46 "Come on! Missile me! I dare you!" That courage increment, man!

Can't wait for the InTel-1 missile carrier

6:22 look what the side says lol

Justin on the bottom left where the icons are you can see if you get scouted with the binocular symbol such as 17:37.

Imagine the stock grind if kinetic round defeating aps is implemented))

I think APS is overall a good addition. There may be some problems if >50% of tanks in a battle have it, but when limited to certain tanks it gives them specific advantages over missile vehicles, instead of missile vehicles just being nerfed. If they do become very prevalent than it would be a massive nerf to missile vehicle and I would not be a fan

17:17 "I need to get myself some depression" -Justine

The CPU wars... I got really invested and then I burst out laughing about that stupid AMD-joke. Well done sir XD

This is the first vehicle I unlocked from the new patch and the amount of PUMA hell I've had to go through to grind out the mods gave me PTSD

I know it’s a very similar vehicle and it’s not new but a video on the T-55AM-1 would be super cool to see after this video

APS only for 10.0 above with ATGM spams Lower than that is just an absolute bully for anyone who unlocked their first ATGM/Rocket vehicle

APS is a very cool addition! The amount of times my Iron Fist has saved me from Helis on the Black Night is crazy! (Shame majority of the games are all Challies so my Win rate is in the dirt 😂)

I love the Russian 100 mm Aphe, apds, heat, apfsds. A truly brilliant gun

im unlocking the t-55amd-1 soon im excited! i cant wait to get the t-72b3

It’s basically just teams full of pumas now

I like the T55-AMD-1 APHE more than the dart cause you do face more IFV and lightly armored ATGM carrier and with LRF aiming long range with lower velocity round is easy

This thing is fun. 8.3 Russia was already great, and now it just got better. Definitely not a 8.7 tank though as T-62-M1, and the Chinese T-55/62s are there at 8.7 which are better. Fits as a good 8.3 as its turret is fairly susceptible.

Love the videos

If you like the T55 you should try the new ZTZ88A next. Pretty much a fast T55 with better rounds and reload. :)

this thing is a beast. i got 9 kills earlier and almost got nuke (2240 spawn points) until i got killed by a t54e1

The T55 looks like the platonic ideal of a tank

17:15 I need some depression. Me: "no worries fam, i got you"

You see Ivan, if you don't steal the ERA bricks and sell them off to arms dealers around the world, you get an ancient but reasonably efficient tank

Marders are going to hate this thing.

I am pretty sure the APS at 16:38 didnt work because your tank wasnt flat, your front was lifted so it hink it was outside of the detection range, because when you look carefully the missile went very low, basically udner your frontal armor

The APS didn't work that time because you were going quickly forward and drove over a bump so there was no way it could track the missile quickly enough

The aps is stuck to the turret if the enemy is a little bit on higher ground the aps wont do nothing in this tank

I love this tank, but i have one issue with it and it's more of an aesthetic issue. I wish it had two of the large smoke cannisters on the back rack like the T54 1947 and Su-122-54 has. Just having those back racks empty like that bugs me.

Thanks for the tip about the PUMA

When the sabot non pen at 21:00 , this is bulcrap like gaijin shells can not become dust just by hitting oxygen or what else and this append a lot to me when I’m fighting leo’s but to be honest I’m still playing this game bc it’s great and fun (sometimes not x))

minute 6:30 thanks for the tips justin

They should add the T-55 ENIGMA,with the add on armor

Funny watching one of the first youtubers to make a "Puma OP" video dunk on Puma's in his next video

sad part....cheecks will be divided before that thing gets proper balancing....

Did they fix repair costs, got to 9.7 / 10.3 (aa) in Italian tree but stopped playing because repair costs were higher than muliple kills in every tank. I want to start playing again, but i want to play for fun not for SL. Repairs should just take away money from what you earn not from the money you had before a match.

This vid convinced me to get user skins for my tanks because they’re starting to look stale and that T-55 skin looks sexy af I liked the video! I know it might not be your style but personally just a basic overview of your game plan per match would be nice to see. What positions are you going for? Anywhere on the maps with good lanes of fire? Or are you just gonna YOLO this game?

so 1 year late the only vehicle have that is merkava black night T-80UM2 and T55AMD *(as i remember)*

Thanks for the amd joke lol, literally the first thing I thought of when I saw this tank

I love T-55s and T62s

Not a fan of T55s because of the really good composite armor at 8.3 They are pretty hard to kill with HEAT-FS

I can say this tank is more survivable than the premium one

Seen this man In a game like an hour ago

Justin the puma destroyer

Lol I was in the first game he played I remember seeing him like oh hey 😂

when you watch the video and realize you was the gepard that got bodied by this man le omega sad

I really like T-55AM1 and AMD. The only thing I hate is the reload speed. 8.5s with an ace crew while everything else has 6.7 or less is just deadly. As is the turret rotation. It feels like a turret from a battleship... Unfortunately 9 out of 10 games are full uptier or an uptier to 9.0 and all games are infested by Pumas so I stopped playing them. P.S. That shot at 20:58 is unfortunately a typical one for me. That ammo is really bad. You were extremely lucky with those oneshots. P.P.S. Have you noticed that it has a base repair time over 57s while AM1 and T-62 have 40s?

I like these random players that helps repair... im one myself.. 2 Guns is always better then 1

AMD are known for running hot. I uses to have a laptop using first or second gen turion 64 x2 (it was one of the first amd 64 bit processors on a laptop is all I remember). It one time hit 130 C according to internal sensors.

Iron Fist IRL is demonstrated to deflect APFSDS

Wow, stab + good shell this is what is missing in french tech-tree at this BR

You know the Maus needs a downtier when you can shoot center of mass. . .

it did come out right take my like

There is a mistake in this video, the AMD actually has 80 more horsepower than the AM-1. I think it's quite notable. Still, a fun video

This explains why amd raised cpu prices..

T-55AM"Drozd"-1

Funny how the system is good in game. It was pretty poor IRL, in Afghanistan it only had an 80% success rate against RPGs, let alone anything tougher. Not to mention how it caused large collateral damage to any infantry nearby

usualy when i play t-55a i take 14 dart, 2 heat and 2 aphe. you are insane to take that much ammo

There are aps that can stop apfsds

Oh my god a WT RU-vidr who actually uses user skins? Holy shit

You say "Drozd" just like you say it. Great tank and great video tho!

funny moment in intro

Okay this was a pretty strange video....I mean There was a let's bully Germany day in WarThunder? In the most of the battles there was everyone againts Germany....so strange, or did I miss an event or I just didnt heard the information about this in the video? The other thing was that a huge amount of the German vehicles in the battle were Begleit, Puma, and maybe TAMs mostly TAM2IPs. There wasn't as many Leopards as usually. Interesting...However the video was great and Interesting. The T55AMD-1 is really interesting in itself, to be honest I'm not the huge fan of the Soviet/Russian vehicles in the game and in the real life as well but the T-55 and its variant that I really love. Also I was always corious how the armies modernize their old equipment and how they doing in a battle. Fortunately they can't test them in a real battle (till now), and to be honest I don't want them to test it. But the WarThunder purposeful. Anyway thanks for the great video Justin you videos so cool and...how the english says that, educational yes I think this is the right word. I've learned so much from them. Keep it up

Without APFSDS or APDS shooting the gun is prob the safest thing to shoot from the front. No other choice.

This tank Will shit on missile ifv even adats?

Cant fine the module on X ray for the active protection system, was that feature removed?

the 20:55 and 21:45 clips show very well how ridicolous this game is, mainly focusing the bias for the german tree tanks. those marders bounce 300mm pen rounds like nothing else. same thing happened to me with high penetration apds more than twice. what a toxic enemy to fight at 7.3

Can you do a vid on the titan 4s been enjoying that thing lately with its 105

I remember on stream you said that you will play the STRV 105 but i think you know me by now. Pls play the STRV 105

It's great and the APS helps so much but I hope they don't move it up because of it, apart from the APS it's literally the same thing as its premium counterpart which sits very comfortable at 8.3! Also, it's great to have this because I don't myself spedning 60 euros for the premium one, I would much rather get the Turms when I get the chance, it's superior.

Wondering if you could do one of the ztz88a?

I wonder, if iron fist goes off above an open top, will it damage it?

Did I get it right that range finder automatically applied to gun or you just do it yourself so quick?

AMD VS Intel and winner can drop Nvidia nuke on the battlefield

Aiming is soo easy at highier tiers, wish they tweaked that a bit, i know its stabilizers and all that, but for gameplay purpose it could sway a little bit to the left and right to make it just a little bit more skill required ...

What happened to the AMD related name :(

"Zimbabwe" Lmao.

Begleit when >:O

APS Modification soon. Just you wait ahaa 😭

8.3 is fine for it. I would not see it perform well vs. 9.7 tanks and the APS while it can save you it doesnt help against APFSDS.

17:17 then you are playing the right game

Finally, the AMD-1 i've been waiting for this. Nice joke btw 😀😀

Love the videos man! Keep it up!

pUmAs aRe oP

ah yes. I need to get this thing and bully puma players

and the amx 30 b2 have the same BR "balance" :(

the t-55a is good

people complain about the puma endlessly yet they suspiciously dont say a thing about this thing, bolstering an already OP russian lineup

The APS *is* a gimmick, but an extremely useful gimmick.

I just noticed that this has aps at 8.3 and had to find a video on it. Broken, russian bias af I'm kinda pissed this is this low.

No one: 14 yo girls: 17:17

the armatas aps can counter apfsds

AMD cpu crashes from a .1 ghz overclock

0:20 Im play War Thunder at ulq on a gaming laptop, and it broken bc always get overheat when Im playing War Thunder :)))) *gaijin just faaking burn out my lap ): *

Aleast you had kinda ok teams. The Russian teams seemed to be role playing the Ukraine conflict for me today.
