The KV-2 was distinguished by its enormous turret and powerful 152 mm howitzer – it was designed to destroy German bunkers and fortifications. KV-2 tanks were first used in combat during the fighting in Finland, but became most famous during the early months of Operation Barbarossa, when their thick armor and firepower were able to halt Wehrmacht assaults. The main drawbacks of the design were its low speed and unreliability in difficult frontline conditions.

The Tamiya 35375 set includes realistically molded tracks, detailed turret and hull components, and a Soviet tank crew figure to be placed in the turret. The model can be further enhanced with modeling accessories, and thanks to its finely cast details, it is perfect both for dioramas and as a display piece in any collection.

We recommend Tamiya 35375 for both intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 3/5), due to the need for precise painting and assembly of parts. It's an excellent choice for any enthusiast of military history or Soviet World War II equipment – perfect as a diorama centerpiece or a standalone collector's model.
