2024年8月3日 · The Object 252, or IS-6, spawned from a deep modernization of the IS-2 that focused on using angled armor for improved armor protection.

There existed two different IS-6s: the Object 253 was an attempt to develop a practical electrical transmission system for heavy tanks. Similar systems had been tested previously in France and the United States and had been used with limited success in the German Elefant /Ferdinand tank destroyer during World War II.

Introduced in Update 1.67 "Assault", the IS-6 is one of the most feared tanks in its ranks, thanks to its strong main armament and incredible mobility packed inside a steeply sloped, thick armour that most conventional ammunition cannot penetrate.

Factory #100 (comrades Kotin, Yermolayev) jointly with TsNII-48 (comrades Zavyanov, Kapyrin) developed a draft project of the IS-6 heavy tank, which has significant advantages in terms of armour compared to the IS-2 mass produced tank.

Why were hundreds of brand new, invulnerable IS-6 tanks not cruising into Berlin in 1945? This is the torrid tale of the Soviet Union's Forgotten Heavy Tank.

I like the IS-6 and it fits good together with the T-10A because nearly the same mobility, gun and armor. For the 7.7 lineup it is great. Maybe not as good as it was when it came out but still solid.

Developed in the summer of 1944 by the Construction Bureau of the Kirov Plant (Leningrad). In the fall of the same year, the prototype underwent trials. It never entered mass production nor saw service.

2020年1月9日 · However, heavy tanks in general aren't in a good position in War Thunder currently. The meta is mobility, firepower, and armor in a very distant third. That being said, the IS-6 is perhaps the best heavy tank in the game. IS-7 is uptiered to 8.7 (being a 8.3 tank) and thus faces the 120mm Leo A1A1 too frequently to be considered the best.
