A Battlefield Monster

Following the creation associated with KV-1 heavy tank, the Soviets produced a variation model armed with a short-barreled 152mm howitzer mounted in an impressively big turret. The alleged KV-2 heavy assault tank was meant to target bunkers and other enemy strong points following classes learned into the war with Finland, but was implemented to blunt the German advance into Russia. It's dense armor was invulnerable to everything except the 88mm anti-aircraft gun, leading German soldiers to give it the nickname "monster."
