In 1942 the Red Army answered complaints about its slow heavy tanks with the KV-1S. Thinner armour, a smaller cast turret and a redesigned rear hull bought speed, and a commander's cupola with all-round vision blocks was a first for a Soviet heavy tank. 1,370 were built. With the KV-85 and then the IS series the line went on, after the heavy tank programme came close to cancellation in mid-1943.
