The next weakspot is the Driver's optic where it ends in a one shot if you have HE filler because the Ammo and Crew is all bunched up in one spot. Also, I wont be including any premiums for our free-to-play brothers. When using this tank from long range, the first piece of advice would be to close in on the enemy, though this is sometimes not possible. Players can use this advantage to cross from cover to cover whilst engaging hostile targets or to make a tactical retreat. War Thunder is a free to play MMO combat simulator with air and ground forces. One of the most infamous tanks in the Soviet tree, the KV-2 introduces the concept of heavy-calibre armaments that will trend on other Soviet heavy tanks. A KV-1 with a completely new and more powerful armament in its name, the 85 mm D-5, allows the Soviet heavy tank tree to have the firepower necessary to combat the other nation's Rank III vehicles. Be aware that this tactic is not suitable against opponents who fire solid-shot armour piercing shells such as certain British and American vehicles, as these will go straight through the rear, into the crew compartment and out the other side without stopping.

Close range Plus, in a technical term, the T-34 medium tank could do basically everything the KV-1 could do (had similar armour ratings and same gun), but was more mobile and cheaper to produce. At 45-tons, it was also very heavy tank for its time. It was equipped with the turret developed for the IS-1 with an enlarged traverse circle, strengthened armour and an 85 mm cannon. This called for a tank that was heavily armoured, but not very mobile as it was to be for siege warfare. Zinovy Kolobanov’s feat of arms, (Germany)&oldid=85740. In 2015, an event known as "Summertime Madness" had the KV-1B available to be obtained as a prize. With allies, a small light tank can get up close and force the KV-1B to try and turn its turret and hull to keep up with the small circling tank, allowing an ally with a powerful gun to hit the KV-1B at weak points when it is concentrating on the more immediate threat of the circling tank. This results in a spaced and overlapped part with ~150 mm.

The armour on the KV tank was impenetrable by most tank cannons in service and most anti-tank guns as well, the 76.2 cannon also gave it a huge firepower boost compared to the usual 37 mm in use by other countries.

I once used this fact and a small hill to face off against 6 different tanks simultaneously and give exactly zero fucks. Designers were ordered to draw up new designs to become the basis of a breakthrough heavy tank as deemed necessary by Soviet combat doctrine.
