About the KV-2
In December 1939, the Soviet Union formalized the KV-1 as the next-generation main heavy tank, incorporating many modern equipment such as diesel engines and torsion bar suspensions. The KV-2 is a heavy tank for breaking through positions that further enhances the attack power of this KV-1. The body is based on the KV-1, and the main gun is replaced from a 76.2mm cannon to a huge 152mm howitzer. The turret has become an extremely tall box to ensure internal space. Handing over to the military began in July 1940, and more than 200 vehicles were completed. The KV-2, which struck the German invasion in June 1941, suffered from troubles such as breakdowns due to excessive vehicle weight, but some vehicles fully utilized the powerful defense power and the power of the 152 mm howitzer. Take advantage of the lonely struggle. It stood in front of the German troops, which continued to make good progress, and became an important force until they were ready for a counterattack.
