Which tank to choose for grinding USSR?

Hi, to grind the USSR army tech tree, which tank among the current discounts would be the most sensible to buy?

The TURMS is genuinely terrible, absolute waste of money.
Object 120 is also not good, autocannon meta means you are fodder.
IS-6 is good but cannot research very much of the tree.
That leaves the T-55AM, which is mediocre now, but its the best option here.

Last year I would have said the Turms would be the best option, but not anymore. It’s a 10.3mm tank, but it has the same armor as the T72A, not the T72B. Its only advantage is its thermals. The IS6 is good, but it won’t cover your entire fleet. I don’t know much about the OBJ120; you have a 152mm gun that will destroy everything, but you also won’t have armor. The best option is the T55AM, which in 9.0 br very high for it. In the end, it’s up to you to choose between the T72, which is still useful in the right hands, or the T55.
