I'm kinda curious, just so I can prepare as I'm sure others already have stocked on free exp like mad. But, when the new tier 10s come out, will the be elited or will we have to get the tracks,turret,gun,engines. Or possibly just tracks and gun?  

Has anyone heard anything about this yet?

And also, if this has already been posted before someone tell me how to use the search function better because it fussed at me for typing "7.5 tier 10s" and "tier 10s" in the search bar giving no results. So if this has been posted already someone let me in on how to use the search feature better so I can actually look this crap up better.

You'll have to wait for the test and early patch notes for that information. They might just make it so that you need to research a gun, or then again they might not.

If you check the announcement page, at least one medium had more than one gun, so there will probably be some research required.  I imagine they are still figuring some of that out.  They'll let us know when they make up their minds.

Go to the development page for more info on up and coming stuff.  There is a link under "new tier 10 vehicles" that goes to the announcement they made.

We would again like to remind you that the above mentioned information is not final. The vehicle specifications listed above can be subject to change prior to their official in-game release.

As far as I'm aware, you will need to research the gun. I'm not sure about the other modules (here's to hoping they come standard).

I'm not sure about other tanks, but AFAIK Batchat needs a better gun to be researched.

I think other tanks would be similar. Gun is upgradable while other modules are non-interchangable.

Well the patch notes do mention that the Tier 10 Patton will have a 90mm and 105mm gun.
"Fans of the American combat vehicles will conquer the battlefields on the medium tank M48A1 (Patton III), equipped with 90 mm M41 and 105mm M68 guns."

I wouldn't bother with the search.  Best way to find upcoming stuff like that is to go to "in development" page i linked you in my first post.  Also, from the main website, you can click the "more" link next to "news" and it will take you to all the news posts they've made.  Also, on the right-hand side, there is a "categories" side-bar, that you can use to refine what type of news you are looking for.  In this case, that would be "announcements"
