Tank description:

The BT-SV is a Soviet tier 3 premium light tank.Developed in 1937 at Armored Vehicle Repair Base No. 12 (Kharkov command). The BT-SV used parts and components of the BT-7. The hull used 10–12-mm structural steel plates that formed sloped armor; the mass-produced vehicle was supposed to feature 25-mm homogeneous armor steel plates. The vehicle passed trials but did not see service. Subsequently, its sloped armor design was used for the A-20 experimental tank and T-34.It was available on the Russian Portal in the Russian Gift Box edition as well as in a special Gift Box edition along with the Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. J and SU-85I. The enclosed code was valid for use on the RU, EU, NA and SEA servers. The BT-SV was also made available briefly on the 1st, 6th and 21st of December 2014 in the EU as part of the Advent Calendar as well as the 15th of December 2014 through the 19th of January 2015 on the NA Server. It has popped up a bit more often recently, albeit in 100$ bundles.
