T-150
| USSR | Heavy Tank | Tier VI |

The T-150 is a Soviet tier 6 heavy tank.
The T-150 was a further development of the KV-1. The vehicle weighed as much as 50 tons. The T-150 underwent trials in the first half of 1941. A prototype fought in the battles for Leningrad, and became a basis for a modification of the KV-1 with reinforced armor.
Despite its name, the T-150 is an upgraded KV-1. It has the same chassis and turret, with some notable improvements. Additional armor has been added to the hull, a considerably more powerful engine is available, and perhaps most importantly, it can mount the 107 mm ZiS-6 gun. The tank can in fact be frustrating at first, but stick with it, and the improvement of the tank will be extremely noticeable.
The T-150 leads to the KV-3.

- Good turret traverse
Cons:
- Low accuracy
- Low speed
- Poor maneuverability
- Poor view range
Performance
Once upgraded with the more powerful cannon and engine, this tank is a nice upgrade to the KV-1. In contrast with the KV-2, this tank has better armor, better turret traverse, and a turret that's much shorter and has sloped sides. Therefore, a T-150 with the ZiS-6 is quite a bit better than a KV-2 with the ZiS-6, although the reload time is slightly longer. The thing that sets the T-150 apart from the KV-2 is the 152mm howitzer, which this tank can't use.
Early Research
- The 57 mm 413 and 122 mm U-11 guns, and the 10RK radio carry over from the KV-1.
- If you went through the KV-2 to this tank, you will have the V-5 engine unlocked. You may also have the 107mm unlocked, but you won't be able to use it yet.
- If you wish, you can research and equip the 85 mm S-31 gun first.
- Research the suspension.
- Unfortunately the tank loses about half of its speed if you mount the upgraded turret and equip the 107mm before getting the V-5F engine, so upgrade to the best engine first.

Historical Info
It is on a modified KV-1 satellite for gun F-32. He had an enlarged frontal armor blunder to 90 (KV-1 had 75 mm), adjustments to the Tower (command tower) and another a few minor adjustments. The project was, in front of attack on the Soviet Union of the National Association of Commissioners of the USSR and the Central Committee, who was on the new specifications KVťažkého tank. In the regulation has commissioned the production of prototypes sat enlarged thick armor and cannon Gradually the exchange equipment. Work together with T-150 was carried out development and construction of prototype competition KV-220. Machine weight 50 tons reached and powered him and sat -2 modified engine output increased to 700 horses. The prototype was ready for it were not to test in 1/1941. On tests that took place between 15.1-14.2.1941 prototype traveled 199 km resulted overheating engine, and oil. The prototype was therefore sent on modifications to the factory No. 75 Charkovein. In the plans to the mass production version of this was anticipated, that machine will be bear the marking of a KV-3. Well, the situation has developed. After receiving new information on planned new German tanks and captured French tanks included Char B-1 (with a strong 60 mm shell) to the specifications to the status Panzerwaffe had new heavy tanks and therefore the mass production of tanks in the form of a prototype T -150 did not accede.
Older information claimed that the prototype of the T-150 was the work together with the KV in Chelyabinskodoslaný in prototypes, but there are the available documents, it would be confirmed. On the contrary, there are documents that say so, that the prototype was assigned one Leningradjednotke the defensive. The prototype of T-150 was assigned to 11.10.1941 123 Tank Brigade. In it he participated in a number of the battle, and later was most likely damaged, or the next destiny is unknown.| Light Tanks | |
