SU-100Y, only single prototype was made, but it actually participated in combat, survived and was preserved in museum.

I played this in World of Tanks, wehraboos tears were delicious.

I found the SU-100Y really hard to use effectively. It hits hard but the huge size, terrible armor (aside from the troll mantlet), and camo rating means the tiniest misplay leads to getting absolutely wrecked.

Yeah. It had basically tier X gun with slightly worse parameters on tier VI, of course the rest of it was going to be absolutely crap.

Though in organised play it could be devastating. Unfortunately in random you basically prayed it's gonna be Prokhorovka map and someone will spot.

I noped out of the game soon after they started to sell gold ammo for ingame currency, it became new standard and completely wiped out any semblance of balance.
