For a medium tank, the M48 Raumpanzer has decent frontal armor. Only the commander's cupola is vulnerable, which is typical for U.S. vehicles. The main feature of this vehicle’s armor is the dozer blade that shields the hull's front and works as a screen. Do not be overconfident about the armor. The vehicle nevertheless remains a medium tank, but you can count on deflecting an enemy shell or two fired by medium tanks of your own Tier.

Top Speed / Reverse Speed

This vehicle’s mobility is not one of its strengths. The top speed of 40 km/h is quite suitable for a heavy tank, but this is the price to be paid for the armor. Consider this when maneuvering on the battlefield.
