Sample text

The Christie suspension was integrated into the BT series (bystrochodya tank, or fast tank). The first Soviet BTs were copied exactly from a Christie prototype delivered to the Soviet union in 1930 and designated BT-1. The first Soviet model was the BT-2, and from 1931 onwards the BT series progressed through a series of design developments and improvements until the BT7 was produced in 1935. Like the earlier BT tanks the BT-7 was a fast and agile vehicle intended for Red Army cavalry units, and was powered by a converted aircraft engine.

Known as the KV-1, the new design was far more mobile than the other submissions and was field-tested during the campaign in Finland in 1940. 94-in) thick was provided. 80in howitzer). Thus the KV-2 did not lack in firepower, but the high turret was a ponderous load for the vehicle and the 40 KV-2 (and improved KV-2B) did not shine in action. With the KV-1 the future for Soviet tank design was established for some time to come. The old multi-turret concept was finally set aside, and the KV-1 emerged as a formidable heavy tank that was to serve the Red Army for years.

It was kept in production simply to get some sort of vehicle to the Red Army following the disasters of the 1941 campaigns. By late 1941 work was already under way on the T-60's successor. This was the T-70, whose first version used a twin-engine power train that could never have worked successfully in action and which was soon replaced by a revised arrangement.
