In 1938 Soviet tank designers came up with the best heavy tank design in the world - the KV-1. Far from perfect, this 45 ton rolling behemoth would kick start a series of hugely impressive and incredibly influential vehicles, going from the KV-1 all the way up to the KV-14 and beyond. Seeing extensive combat in the Second World War against the invading German army, the KVs would join the T-34 in forming the core of the Red Army's modern armoured spearhead, and would be developed further into the iconic IS series.
