The TO-55 is a Soviet flamethrower tank based on the T-55 medium tank coming to the game in the next major update!
TO-55, medium tank, USSR, rank V. Premium.
Features:
- Coaxial flamethrower
- Mediocre protection
The predecessor of the Soviet TO-55 was the TO-54 tank, developed on the basis of the T-54 medium tank at the Malyshev Factory. In 1957, a new flamethrower tank was developed on the chassis of the T-55 tank, which used the more advanced ATO-200 flamethrower. TO-55 successfully passed the tests and was put into service in 1960. The tank was mass-produced in Omsk and Kharkov, a total of 830 TO-55 units were produced. The flamethrower tank was in service with the army until 1997.
The premium Soviet TO-55 will be added to the game with the release of the next major War Thunder update. An overall good T-55A medium tank with an excellent gun gets a coaxial flamethrower and Premium bonuses!
The T-55A medium tank is widely used by War Thunder tankers in high rank battles. The tank compensates for its moderate mobility with high firepower, while featuring somewhat better protection than its main opposite, the German Leopard 1. Stabilized 100mm gun offers a good APCBC with devastating beyond-armor effect while the 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun on the roof often comes in handy against early helicopters. The premium TO-55 adds a flamethrower to the firepower of the T-55A! As a weapon it is useful for destroying light vehicles, but the flamethrower will find its most frequent use in blinding an enemy gunner in close quarter combat. After all, the flamethrower is pure fun!
As already noted, the speed and protection of the TO-55 can hardly be called its strengths. Like the T-55A, the new tank takes a long time to reach its maximum speed, but the chassis itself turns very well and does good on the raw terrains. The armor of the TO-55 is capable of withstanding some of the tank guns kinetic rounds, while the dome-shaped turret sometimes ricochets armor-piercing shells. However due to the dense fighting compartment, the first shell that pierces the armor of the habitable compartment is often the last in the session.
The premium TO-55 will be a good alternative to regular T-54 and T-55 tanks and will greatly boost the research of any Soviet armored vehicle up to rank VI. We’ll ‘burn it up’ in the next major War Thunder update!

Comments will be premoderatedI struggle to understand the logic behind yet another flamethrower tank, but especially one at the T-55's tier. If you wanted another flamer tank, add in the Sherman Crocodile or a German tank or something, something at a lower tier that can see vehicles that the flamethrower can actually do something against.
Any chance that we could see British light tanks coming any time soon? Gaijin has stated that they are being worked on, but those statements were made a couple years ago.
Another tank! I hope it will be something else next time, because this is getting boring.
Not bad, it's the second tank in game with flamethrower after the Churchill right ? Maybe one day germany will have the B1 with flamethrower too and american the Sherman. Hey Stona_WT, is there anything exciting we can expect for France this update ? :o (when i mean exciting i mean something unique of course)
Sherman Crocodile, Matilda Frog/Murray, M3 Satan and LVT-4 Ronson/Sea Serpent when?
I think this is the tank depicted in "The Beast of War" (1988), my favorite movie! If this one is cheap enough I may pick it up for some Soviet-Afghan war LARP and to grind other vehicles from that era.
Disappointment
I would love to get a new Leopard or two for Germany somewhen :/
Can we please get the T-90M? My favorite is the the one with ERA installed on lower front plate and attached to the iron nets covering the neck.
Stona, happy about the vehicle foldering news, thank you guys! One question though: when it comes to crew slots, I have all ten for many nations, and even then, I am starting to run out of space with all the new vehicles being added. Also same thing with crew presets. There's just so many viable lineups, and many of those lineups can fit more than ten viable vehicles. Could you guys seriously consider increasing the maximum amount of crew slots and crew presets?
