Description

Includes one IS-2 obr 1944 tank, one Tank Commander figure and one optional .50 cal AA MG.

The IS-2 heavy tank was designed to replace the aging KV tanks as the Guards heavy breakthrough units.

The IS-2 obr 1944 introduced a faster-loading version of the gun, the D25-T with a double-baffle muzzle brake and better fire-control. It also featured a simpler hull front without a step instead using a flat, sloping glacis armour plate.

Sometimes referred to as the IS-2m (lowercase 'm'), but this official designation was not used until the modernization of the tank by the Soviets in the 1950s (IS-2M, uppercase 'M').

Miniatures are supplied unpainted and may require assembly.
