Vehicle information – KV-85 and KV-122

• Model scale: 1/35
• User country: Soviet Union (USSR)
• Historical period: World War II (1943–1945)
• Vehicle type: Heavy tank
• Examples of use: Eastern Front, Red Army operations in the USSR, Poland, Germany

The KV-85 tanks and the transitional KV-122 model were designs developed during World War II to increase the firepower and survivability of Soviet armored forces. The KV-85 entered production in 1943 as a modification of the KV series tank—with a new turret and 85mm gun—becoming a short-lived yet crucial evolutionary step towards the famous IS-2. This model was mainly used by Guards units during the liberation fights in the USSR and offensives toward Germany. The KV-122, armed with the powerful 122mm D-25T gun, was a prototype that directly served as the basis for the IS-2 tank.
