[1.60] What do you think of Soviet Tank Hunters?

[Riggsman]

They are not hard counter but soft. Mine the choke points, use them with ATg's you will see how they are useful.

You can easily finish of a immobilized Panther with only 1 Tank Hunter even without MAT upgrade. They are ok currently.

Don't expect to use them like RR Airborn or Rangers or vet 3 Shreck Grens. They are support AT units.

So last skirmish vs Expert CPU I did an experiment with Tank Hunters on a 4vs4 map (I don't know the name but it has an airfield/airport with a bunch of snowy terrain and plane) and like always they always make T3 Puma/Geschultzwagen/StugIV/Nebelwerfer and T2 Pak 38 spam.  I made the men against tank upgrade and made about 6 Tank Hunters, but only since its a skirmish.  They seemed to do very well agains half tracks, Pumas, and can even take on a StugIV head on!  Also they can kill Nebelwerfers and Pak 38s and the vehicle itself pretty good.  I even destroyed a King Tiger with the 6 Tank Hunters, mainly by throwing grenades and having another squad to bait so the Tank Hunters can flank.  I'm still not sure how they perform in a REAL game.  Probably I would take the AT gun anyday.

They are good IMO , especially against PE armor, cuz they give you always 360degrees attacking range. But I strongly recommend to use them combined with at least 1 AT gun.
