Armored and mechanized forces played a pivotal role in the USSR's victory in World War II. In their honor in 1946 a professional holiday of tankers and tank constructors was established. It is celebrated every second Sunday of September, commemorating the breakthrough of the Soviet armored forces during the East Carpathian Strategic Offensive that took place on September 11th, 1944.
To commemorate Tanker’s Day, Soviet heavy experimental tank KV-2 (ZiS-6) will be available for purchase for Golden Eagles
From September 8th (13:00 GMT) until September 12th (07:00 GMT) Soviet KV-2 (ZiS-6) will be temporarily available for Golden Eagles
It’s pretty impressive: six crew members, decent speed and passability, and, of course, the ZiS-6 gun with shells that easily pierce the enemy armor and do a lot of damage.
