The KV-1's Bigger Brother
In December 1939 the KV-1 was officially adopted by the Soviet military; it was followed by the KV-2, a heavier design based upon the KV-1 chassis, but upgunned to a 152mm howitzer with the intention of breaking enemy strongholds; in order to accomodate the larger gun, the KV-2 was given a remarkably tall turret. Around two hundred were produced, and supply to the military began in July 1940. The following June, Nazi Germany invaded and the KV-2 - while suffering a number of breakdowns - took part in Soviet resistance against the invaders, their 152mm guns and impressive survivability enabling some amazing feats, helping stem the tide.

★This model captures the mammoth KV-2 form in style, from the tall, boxy turret to realistic surface textures and detailing.   ★A marking option is included to recreate a KV-2 captured by the German Wehrmacht and given a winter camouflage makeover.   ★This image shows the massive 152mm gun, which includes rifling detail in the muzzle section for that extra layer of realism.
         
   
★The rough cast surfaces of the armor are captured in style. Mesh sections of the external air intake are recreated with fine molding.   ★Depictions of the wide KV-2 tracks utilize single-piece straight sections and give a realistic rendering of upper run 'sag.'   ★This kit comes with two figures: a full body commander and a crew torso; use them to add yet more life to your finished masterpiece.
