I swear to god if this goes in at 4.0. We have enough overpowered premium KVs at 4.0, dont put this one there too.
how is it a copy paste, its literally a new kv1, with new turret, something between kv1s and kv1 1941

I think it is safe now to skip the dev blogs… All of it was already leaked… :/
C’mon Gaijin, what is going on???
different gun, different gun mantlet, no big panzer cupola, seems pretty different to me

Will there be a second one DEV today?
It has a different gun, breech, transmission, commander hatch, etc. it is not the same as the KW-1C…

Gaijin not ready F/A-18C this quarter, my guess
KV-1S
Not even gonna comment on this stupidity.
You sure?
Because irl it’s literally captured 1942 production KV-1, which is the one in devblog.
Lol.
Considering it’s also ZiS-5, but in thicker turret it’s gonna be at 5.0, which is the BR of KW IC 756(r)
This one, sure, but only because it’s captured.
USSR - the produxer of this exact new turret version should get it as well.
It being captured is also a reason for being a premium, this version was one of two captured, hence the rarity and another reason for a premium.
Pretty much most nations have captured shit as premiums.
Russian bias claim is also hilarious, soviet tech is presented in sp many TT’s and for whatever reason people expect every soviet captured vehicle to be a TT.

Sweden has captured T-28 T-34 and T-34-85 captured stuff with little modification can be tech tree clearly not even looking at israel. However theres a gap in ge premiums between 3.7-7.7 and this is a good vehicle to sell as such so thats probably why its prem. Prem gap and money is the anwser.

I’m pretty sure it will be 4.7. It’s basically a KV-1 (ZiS-5) with a different turret or a KW I C with a worse gun. They might “accidentally” release it with a BR of 4.3, but then it would probably still go up after a few months.

“Klimi” being a word used in Finnish to define the KV series is above all the name given to the first KV tank captured, the KV1B, a KV-1E model 1940 captured with Finnish registration.
Ps. 272-1.
The KV tank currently being introduced is a KV1A, a KV-1 model 1942 captured with Finnish registration number Ps. 271-1.
theoretically, it should not have the nickname “Klimi”.

This should be researchable. Sweden still lacks a tech tree heavy and just got a premium heavy tank already in the Battle Pass. This happened to the Hungarian Tiger as well.
Stop adding premium heavies until the tree has one.

Hm…
Think of it this way though: it’s lowish BR so it’s very possible it’ll pop up in warbond shop where you can pick it up for literally free ( kinda)
All I want are my unique heavy tanks man, where is the O-I, P.43, 44M Tas versions, Kranvagn, WZ111, and IS-3M w/ T-54 engine. I don’t understand why people want to destroy the balance and personality of each nation by bloating them with another country’s stuff.
If I want Tiger I or II I go play Germany; Italy, Japan, and Sweden have their own domestic designs that I would much rather have.

The finnish branch is flooding with captured vehicles but it only matters when a heavy tank is ready to be introduced.
Premium detected, hype rejected

See this thing has better turret armor than the zis 5 which is 4.7 so there are 2 options its added at 4.7 and had no linup. Sweden has TD’s that are only kinda good in an uptier so your fucked. Option 2 its added at 5.0 alongside the KW-1C and it DOA with 96mm aphe. Again this is why the KV-1B would’ve fit the lineup. If this thing had gone to germany it would’ve made sense due to them having an actual lineup. Its even more hilarious that gaijin wants you to pay for. Not to mention they couldn’t even paint the roundel black so it matches the original black swastika. Dont get me wrong it didn’t need the swastika but it shouldve been the dame color.
