Crew:

  • Commander
  • Radio Operator
  • Driver
  • Gunner
  • Loader

Advantages:

  • Can choose between three good guns that offer completely different styles of play with good DPM and RoF for each.
  • Excellent armor for its tier on the front and on the sides; with 110mm thick nearly impenetrable rounded upgrade turret.
  • Good at sidescraping, but mediocre reverse angling due to engine. Upper front glacis is very bouncy if the enemy doesn''t aim.
  • 122mm U-11 howitzer relatively consistent penetration on low tiers and can one-shot, still capable against higher tiers.
  • 85mm has excellent fire rate, penetration, and damage, especially for its tier.

Disadvantages:

  • Slow acceleration, and otherwise poor maneuverability: often an easy priority target for SPGs.
  • Top speed and strategic mobility is acceptable but lower than IS-line.
  • Really bad view range (gets sniped easily by invisible tanks outside of range)
  • Slow aiming time on large guns; especially 122mm howitzer, with low accuracy and long reload time to boot.
  • Frontal weakspots.

Tank description:

The KV-1 is a Soviet tier 5 heavy tank.Development started at the end of 1938. A prototype was produced in August 1939. The vehicle first saw combat in December 1939 at the Mannerheim Line. The tank was mass-produced from March 1940 through August 1942, with a total of 2,769 vehicles manufactured.Most novice players will find the KV-1''s playing style significantly different from what they are used to, having just come out of the T-28 medium tank. At stock, armed with the adequate 76mm ZiS-5, it is very slow, and certainly not agile. Consider mounting the 57mm 413 if you enjoy a fast fire rate with decent penetration. The KV-1 with the 122mm U-11 gun firing HE shells can be a surprisingly fun tank to play, but don''t expect to be doing much when you get thrown in with the big boys battles. It''s one of the tanks new players should definitely learn to kill as the same weak spots are shared with other tanks in the KV family. Frontal weak-spots include the flat plate directly below the turret and the lower plate below the heavily sloped mid section, and shots to the side and rear will penetrate the flat 60mm armoring fairly consistently. This tank used to be combined with the KV-2 in the removed KV tank.The KV-1 leads to the T-150, the KV-2, and the KV-1S.
