Default RE: JS 7 Heavy Tank


ORIGINAL: herrmill

After reading this article about the King Tiger's flaws, I'm beginning to think the Soviet Union could have stopped their tank development after the IS-2.

Russian view point, despite its short comings and their were many, the King Tiger was still better than any of the IS series soviet heavy armor.

The King Tigers greatest threat was its own crew.
