Some of the most fun tanks in War Thunder are ones with big cannons that aren't particularly effective, but feel great to use due to their immense damage. The British FV4005 is not one of those tanks. The FV4005 has a 183mm cannon firing HESH which is notorious for being terrible in WT.

0:35 oh hey that’s me! … wait that’s me
4:12, I do love it looks like the Hesh round just implodes
It’s a shame that HESH doesn’t work properly in this game. This tank is one of my favourites to play. As a side note though, you can indeed see this tank in real life. Bovington Tank Museum (in the UK) finished a massive restoration project on the FV4005 in 2024 and mounted the turret on working Centurion chassis This thing is huge
5:55 i gotta give the editor credit, he commits to these bits and i love it
If it had a fused round that exploded like with AA rounds it might be a bit more effective. You're a good boy Spookston, thanks for the video!
1:25 I love when Spooks hates on people for blocking him and literally squishes the child into the dog park
The Shitbarn *could* be a good vehicle. Sadly, Snail does not understand HESH.
3:40 Ya gotta hit the tracks spooks, one shot every time
WT British Tech Treer: "Mum, can we 'ave KV-2?" Gaijin: "Oi, sorry, luv, we 'ave KV-2 at 'ome." KV-2 at home:
Gaijin should just add the autoloading variant atp...
3:03 Love the chunk of the roof that shows up in the xray
I can't believe I was actually in a match with Spookston. I was that M18, M4A3, and M4A2 that got dogged on. Well played.
Say 95 of asking Spookston to play the T-80U
-Hey, Jimmy, gimme a high explosive with nothing. -Nothin?
This thing at one point sounded like a CSGO AWP when you fired it, literally sounded 1 to 1, it actually fit pretty well
My “I have peaked with this vehicle” moment was 1-hitting an IS-4 frontally by hitting his temple while facing me.
6:47 "our table"💥
Doesn't own a kettle requires elite ball knowledge
We need a concussion mechanic to fix these big guns not doing anything
Spookston's editor out here eating dysphoria meat cubes in 2026 😆😆😆😆
