Description

Tamiya announces the release of the up-armored KV-1B in our ever-growing 1/48 MM Series. Show it with all the previously released KV-1 to show the differences involving the two, line it with this other Russian automobiles such as the T-34 and GAZ-67B, or pit it against its German adversaries like Tiger we and Panther in battle dioramas.

About the KV-1B Armed with a powerful 76.2mm main weapon and equipped with 75mm frontal armor, the KV-1 tank ended up being an unpleasant surprise for the German military once they invaded Russia in the summer time of 1941. Impervious to the majority of anti-tank firearms, the KV-1 became a solid opponent, however the introduction of more recent, better German tanks lessened its benefit as the war proceeded. In reaction, extra armor plates were bolted on the hull and turret to improve protection, leading to the KV-1B variant.
