A bit late (okay, a day late) but we have stats for a new <sigh> Soviet heavy in supertest. It was good run of premiums for other countries, wasn’t it? Let’s see what we have:

Object 244 Supertest Stats
It’s just a small IS? This is so unnecessary.
Ha! I knew they would add another soviet trash after adding other nations 😉
This thing has been in the gamefiles for ages though.
KV-85 / IS Clon……Russia Premium SPAM
Feels like new premium tanks are tested at a rate of at least one per week, if not more. This is insane. I would not be surprised if more and more collectors simply capitulated.
I haven’t been keeping track – has EVERY premium that showed up on supertest made into the game, or only some of them?
Sadly the Aufklärungspanzer did not get past supertest. However thats the only one that I remember.
It’s not new at all though.
This thing is, like, 3 years old already. They changed the armor a bit and it’s a gift on the current WG fest.
Oh look, another soviet premium clone. Havent had much of those in a while
This is basically a T34-85 gun with IS armour at Tier VI, which is pretty dangerous. The T-34-85 gun is actually pretty good for that tier but this tank uses it to a much more devastating effect.
but t34-85 has the mobility and camo to use the 85mm to its full potential. I dont think this obj is going anywhere as fast with those ground resistance, in fact it will be very slow with current stats
When will the camel’s back break?
People are still clamering for premiums there are people actually waiting for swedish heavy prem nothing seems to bring these people round that wg are taking the piss. The lowe used to cost 25 quid five years back its now almost 40 i wasnt aware that you could be interest on virtual tanks.
Oh good, I wanted this since they first tested it ages ago. Kinda thought they forgot about it. I was hoping it would be in the next campaign.
Seriously, how many IS-2 variant WG plan to cram us with?
It’s actually and IS-1 prototype that actually existed. Do your homework.
Yeah I think it is. IS-1 tanks had 85mm guns while the IS-2 had the 122mm guns, and the frontal armor on the IS-2 was sloped better (less KV-1 more T-34). I am not sure, landserlandsa correct me if I’m wrong.
So basically an IS with the t3485’s gun ?
Yeah no thanks
IS armor at tier 6 with a rapid fire T-34-85 gun? Should be pretty decent for a tier 6 heavy tank.
IS has armor?
No mobility no gun depression would be bad enough
but the armor is imho frontally comparable with 34 85 m or vk m
KV 85 ir more mobile and has a better gun even the turret armor is probably stronger
Wow, what a suprise, another russian clone. We clearly need more of those.
It’s a gift for people who visit a coming WG event IRL
at least not another tier 8 super OP Object of psycho-sublimation (see Sigmund Freud, ‘Civilization and Its Discontents’ (1930)
We clearly need not only another premium daily, but another Soviet Heavy premium, like a hole in the head.
Why dont some of these game devs concentrate on what players really want, and what is hurting the community, driving players away, and reducing their overall income?
No chance for a tier 5 to pen it. Furthermore tier 4 tanks could not dream of damage on it. Even some tier 6 will have problems.
so it’s a….KV-13?
