BZ 166 is an upgradeable lvl 8 Chinese with new rocket booster mechanics.
BZ-166 (China, HT-8, regular, mechanics: rocket boosters) was released the day before yesterday for the 1st iteration of the WoT EU supertest. The tank has a new rocket booster mechanic thatturn on and have a duration. Accelerator charges are limited (this is where 4 per battle).
The tank has only one gun. The usual set of shells: armor-piercing, apcr and high-explosive.
Recall the mechanics: when activated, you will not be able to maneuver, so you need to think about when it is best to use the accelerator. As one of the best options — it’s a battering ram. You can also occupy key points first relative to other heavy equipment. We think we will see interesting moments of the game with the help of these accelerators more than once.
Performance characteristics affected by rocket boosters:
First value – normal mode / second – with boosters:
• Acceleration preparation time: 5 sec.
• Recharge time between boosts: 4 sec.
• Acceleration charge duration: 10 sec.

70 • Boost Shock
Duration: 0.5
• Engine Power Multiplier on Boost: x2.5
• Max Forward Speed Multiplier on Boost: x1.5
• Max Reverse Speed Multiplier on Boost : x0.1
• Chassis turn rate multiplier when accelerating: x0.15
Firepower:
• Movement spread (max): 0.20 (7.00, 10.50 when accelerating)
• Chassis turn spread (max) : 0.20 (5.84, 0.88 under acceleration)
Mobility:
• Chassis slew rate: 29.20 / 4.38 under acceleration
• Max. forward speed: 35 / 52.5 when accelerating
• Max. reverse speed: 13 / 1.3 when accelerating
• Engine power: 700 / 1,750 when accelerating
• Specific power: 13.21 / 33.03 when accelerating
* All performance characteristics are indicated with a commander’s bonus and top-end equipment.
