Kit COBI 2555 II WW KV-1, 656 k, 2 f

Build a model KV-1 (known in Poland as KW-1) Soviet heavy tank, which at the beginning of the war surpassed German designs. It was manufactured in the years 1940-1943 in the Leningrad Kirov plant and the Chelyabinsk tractor plant. 4,786 copies of all versions were produced. The name of the tank comes from the Soviet Defense Commissioner Kliment Voroshilov. The tank was characterized by strong armor up to 82 mm, impenetrable for most German technology, weighing up to 45 tons. The main armament consisted of a 76mm cannon. The disadvantages of the tank were slowness, maneuverability, unreliable engine, lack of ergonomics and poor visibility of the battlefield. Despite this, the tank was a tough opponent. The successor to the KW-1 equipped with the same cannon was the legendary T-34 tank.

The package contains 656 cubes and 2 figures.
