KV-1 m1942 “Klimi”: The Reclaimed Giant

what do you mean? at all? this update?

What? No i meant this is the last heavy tank sweden can get, the KV-1B was explicitly stated it would never be added to finland.

Kranvagn (project EMIL)?

Thats if, gaijin adds it which seems unlikely since its about as real as E100 unfortunately

Was that even built? Don’t wanna pull a WG here do we…

i mean, enough for it to have been passed to devs and locked as a suggestion.

Edit:
@Pheonix_RX01
A hull was built and is currently in a museum. Several guns were tested and IIRC some turrets were tested. But the guns/turrets were to my knowledge never fitted on the completed hull.
There is at least a lot of information on it and its performance during testing at different stages with different setups (information found in secretary notes from meetings about the tank and its development).

World of tanks KV1 be like:

What’s the point of different nations then if everyone has same vehicles?

A bad and increasingly outdated game structure and progression model?

the issue is that Sweden as a tree does currently not have ANY heavies in the tree making daily tasks/BP challenges requiring heavies impossible without paying real money.

So at least one should be in the tree (even if it is a copy paste) just for the sake of opening up for the possibility of completing tasks.

In general i am against copy paste but in that case i would approve as it would serve a purpose.

No of course not. But I’m sure someone will make an accurate skin for it forthwith.

I dont believe any of the turrets or guns were made. I know 2 hulls were made since they were used to test the suspension system of the strv 103 and the AKV 151(bandkanon) the problem is the turret and gun never actually were made. There were plans to mount the cent mk 10 turret but funding was ended before they could.

What? just because KV1 there is like this one doesnt mean it’s from WoT.
“hey it’s guy from fortnite” or “hey it’s skdi t*t game/guy” logic.
Would be cool if they added that one short 122mm KV prototype tho.

There are at least test numbers for the guns purposed so some of the guns were tested (i think they tested already existing guns? but i’m not sure).

if you are interested in more info:

I’m not really that read up on it though so i might be very wrong. But instinctually it looks like there is enough info for Gaijin to be able to have it in the game (since the hull was actually built and tested to the extent it was).

so it’s not the same vehicle if it’s a premium?

Why Gaijoobles, why must it be premium?
(It’s premium because people like me exist, depending on the BR I might get it)

So you answered your own question. The do it because they can get away with it.

yeah I know, that’s the point of what I said. I’m disappointed it’s premium, but I’ll still probably get it anyways because I have money.
The point is they know people want a Finnish KV-1, so they make it premium, and then people like me buy it because why not, even though I can just grind the Russian tech tree ones.
