Tamiya 32538 1/48 Russian Heavy Tank KV-2

The KV-2 takes the chassis of its predecessor and adds a beastly 152 howitzer with a massive turret to house the gun, and fortified it with an armament of 36 high explosive rounds for its main gun. Like its predecessor, the KV-2 was practically bulletproof, save for artillery fire, and proved quite effective against the Germans. But its substantial weight reduced its speed considerably and led to a number of failures on the battlefield. When fully assembled, this 1/48 scale model measures 148mm long.
