Stepping into the Chinese tech tree, up another tier, and over into the Premium tank category is the Type 64. The Type 64 is a well-known active scout in World of Tanks. With a top speed of 72km/h and a View Range of 390 m, the Type 64 is a speedy Light tank capable of spotting enemies with ease.

Due to the fact the Type 64 is a Premium tankthough it’s not on our list of best Premium tanks to farm creditsit comes with all the modules it will need. This alleviates the stress of having to grind through stock variants. As far as fighting goes, the Type 64 can hold its own when moving around the battlefield.

The main gun offers 115 damage with 128 mm of penetration, as well as the ability to fire accurately while on the move.
