This tank has two characteristic attributes.

First, the visible at first glance additional armor plates on the sides and on the turret.

Sadly, that armor improves aesthetical value at most.

PC

Weak armor is a great weakness of this tank.

Second characteristic attribute of Panzer IV H is its great gun.

105mm with 64mm penetration and 350 damage points makes this tank deadly on short distances.

PC

This tank is great on city maps like Ruinbers or Himmelsdorf.

This tank is especially deadly against less armored vehicles, especially light tanks and tank destroyers.

When developing new modules first focus on developing the suspension and then as quickly as possible develop 105mm cannon.

PC

Then,brothers in armsfor the entire crew.

This tank doesn’t have the best armor.

The angled plate between those two is even easier to penetrate.

PC

It is only 20mm thick, so it won’t protect from any bullet.

Sides and back of the vehicle are weak as well.

Armor thickness at those sides is not greater than 40mm, even when including the additional armor.

PC

Turret is easy to penetrate as well, at least if you know where to aim.

You should avoid the hatch.

The second spot you shouldn’t aim at are surroundings of the cannon.

World of Tanks

Depending on the angle of the shot the armor can have from 50mm to even 200mm.

Rest of the turret is very thin and is no obstacle for bullets.

…as the driver of Pz.

Use the terrain obstacles to hide your tank.

Trees, bushes, ruins - all of them increases your chances for survival.

Long reload time requires you to hide behind terrain obstacles.

Damage dealt depends mostly on the armor thickness and penetration.

When driving a light tank or tank destroyer it is best to avoid confrontation with this tank.
