WZ-111 5A – Chinese Heavy Tank – Pictures, Armour & Stats
2 min readHello everyone,
More details about the Tier X Chinese Heavy Tank WZ-111 5A. For those who didn’t know (me included, I completely forgot about it) this tank was already tested back in 2014, version 8.2. It was supposed to be the Chinese Tier X and players were able to play with it during the Common Test, but it was replaced by the 113 before the final version was released. At the time the tank was overpowered, basically a much better version on the IS-7, it’s been nerfed compared to what it was, but still looks it will need further changes before it comes to the live server. (if it comes at all) If the Russian Source is correct, this might be a normal tank released to the Chinese Tech Tree, at the moment the tank has a cost of 6,100,000 credits, this could mean the tank is either a replacement for 113 or Wargaming is planning on expanding the Chinese Tech Tree. (This is just my opinion and not confirmed information, more details as soon as I have them).
Please note these are Supertest details and might change before final version is released.

That dpm….and gun depression….
Can’t be right?
It is for now… Reason why I am sure it will be nerfed…
The 113 is plagued by a paper lfp and Hershey Kisses tinfoil wrapper ammoracks.
I wonder if this addresses any of that?
Sort that DPM out. It’s way too high.
Dat gun depression tho… I think I see nerf incoming
The Dpm can also be lowered a bit
A lot you mean. 3k base on a heavy is totally broken. Look at what a Maus can do with 2500 DPM base and that is slow as hell. This WZ is fast with -10 depression and 3k base DPM. It needs to be sorted out, WG is insane to even consider this crap. ?
10 degrees of gun depression ON A CHINESE TANK !?!?!?
JUST GIVE ME THE TANK ALREADY
