Historical Information

The Soviet heavy tank KV-1 Mod. 1942 played a significant role during World War II, especially on the Eastern Front. It served from 1941 until the post-war years in the Soviet Army and was the Soviet Union’s response to the latest technological achievements of the Wehrmacht. The 1942 model was marked by reinforced armor and a simplified design, enabling mass production and easier maintenance on the front lines. These tanks fought in major battles such as Leningrad, Stalingrad, and during Operation Bagration, and their combat silhouette became a symbol of Soviet resilience and armored strength.
