Tank description:

The KV-3 is a Soviet tier 7 heavy tank.Developed on the basis of the KV heavy tank, the vehicle initially had very few differences from the mass-produced model. It underwent field trials in January–February 1941. Eventually, several crucial changes were made to the design, greatly boosting the combat characteristics of the vehicle. By July 22, 1941, chassis and engine development was completed. According to some sources, in the fall of 1941, the vehicle was equipped with a serial KV turret and sent to the front.The KV-3 is defined by its lengthened and more heavily armoured KV chassis, and a much rounder turret design. It can use a large variety of guns, but it''s best known for the 122mm D-25T cannon, a weapon it shares with the IS. It sports an impressive 120mm of frontal hull armour, its turret is relatively well-armoured too, and the conical design makes bouncing frequent. When upgraded, it can mount the V-2SN engine, which gives a huge boost of horsepower. It is however much slower than the IS, and like the IS it lacks penetration compared to the German, French and US heavy tanks of its tier.The KV-3 leads to the KV-4, and the IS-2-II.
