    Justin the reason that Maus (the second one) was because he had the legendary decal that is "did you angle today?" A Maus like that is so much harder to defeat a true rival xD

    It's indeed a Stalin era tank, being build in the late forties c:

    justin, to kill the maus, flat cheek, and if he angle the turret, shoot the mantlet, it's only 100mm almost flat and overpressure will do the rest for you. i killed maus with my m26e1 back in the day with that tactic. BTW i also have is7.

    I ground it out. What a nightmare. It was a beast, put a talisman on it, had like a 5 to 1 k/d to start. But heatfs etc and the up tiers caught up and the repair was up over 22k. Its been in the shed for quite a while. You didn't fill me with confidence about bringing it out again. Its a sad shadow of a great tank. The heavies might be over except the object 279. That seems to still do very well, however mine is still sitting as a coupon unused.

    The IS-7 had quite a bit of prototypes made. It was very advanced for the time it had a semiautomatic loader, automatic fire extinguishers. It's armor was made to withstand the Jagdtiger 12,8 gun the side armor according to the chieftain was it's side armor is the same as its frontal armor the lower half is 100mm of armor. New suspension system not used on other tanks of the time. All the tanks for the time would not and could not pen the tank. BTW judging by the Chieftains footage the tank if fairly spacious especially for a Soviet tank. Problem of the tank was it's weight which was about 70 ton I believe so logistics of this vehicle is not possible for the Soviets so they cancelled it and decided to pick up the IS-8 and then a year after it wass introduced it was renamed the T-10 due to Stalin's death.

    Weird to think what it'd be like in War Thunder if the IS-7 actually went into service. Like, in real life, the main 2 reasons it never went into service were the price and weight of the vehicle (the Soviets were shifting away from heavy tanks at the time, and figured the IS-7 would be too difficult to transport).
    But, like, imagine if those weren't a factor, and this was in the tech tree because it went into service and was mass produced in real life. It'd be a pain in the ass to fight, that's for sure.

    Yes indeed I survived operation summer and I yes I agree that was one of the most grindiest events I’ve ever done what made it worse was that you had to an event to qualify for this event that was regarded and but you did get the T-34E with armour package and a camp for it for your effort’s, the only thing I liked about it aside from the fact I got my IS-7 I’m so proud of this thing in my hangar but you actually had to build each and every component, the hull the tracks the road wheels the gun the 2 14.5s and each machine gun, the radios the transmission the engine everything that was awesome and how these crafting events should be non of this building 3 vehicles to trade for another crap
