Object 155 is a tier 3 MBT originating from the Soviet Union. It was a beta testers’ reward tank for participating in one battle during Closed Beta, and later for participating in Stress Test.

Player recommendations

This is a very good tier 3 MBT. If it is top tier in a game, it is best played rushing to the heavy zone of the map and battling it out with its relatively high DPM. If its opponents are at tier 4-5, it is best played hanging back and supporting the top tier heavies or flanking, taking out lower tier targets for the team. Even though its armour is good enough to withstand a few shells, the relatively low health pool means it enemy fire should be avoided if possible.

The prototype for the T-55, the Object 155 includes a full suite of proposed upgrades to ammo storage, fire rate, and mobility. Although modestly armored, it became the first true MBT of the Soviet Union, its primary flaw being that it lacked an anti-aircraft gun.

History

Work to create a new armored vehicle based on the T-54B medium tank began in 1957. Assigned the secret classification of "Object 155," the tank incorporated the entire range of new design features yielded by the modernization of the T-54. Testing ran from the winter of 1957 to the spring of 1958, when the Object 155 was adopted by the Soviet Army as the T-55, according to a May 8 resolution passed by the USSR Council of Ministers. The T-55 was introduced in 1958 and incorporates all the refinements and improvements of the fully developed T-54 series, without being radically different in design or appearance. The T-55A appeared in the early 1960’s. Production continued in the Soviet Union through 1981 and was also undertaken in China (as the Type 59), Czechoslovakia and Poland.
