I more associate Kimidori with the Centurion 7/1 personally. Still, Kimidori has mad skills with that Cromwell.

Well, the prevailing thought for US TD users below Tier 7 is that if you're getting hit, you're doing it wrong. While the Jackson does have heavier armor it's not enough protection against guns in its Tier, whereas the Hellcat has better mobility as its ace being able to speed to good sniping spots in a jiffy. Combined with the fact that both use the same gun complement, and the Hellcat comes out as the superior TD overall.

It's why a lot of people prefer the Hellcat over the Jackson, though if you're the type to stick to one spot and snipe there's hardly any difference between the two.
