This is my first Premium Tank in WOT ..

*IS-6*

World of Tanks: Today in History: IS-6
On June 8th, 1944, on the orders of the People's Commissar of Heavy Production, factory #100 in Chelyabinsk and Uralmash received orders to develop blueprints and build prototypes of the IS-6 heavy tank.

This vehicle, the first in the history of domestic tank building, was built with an electromechanical transmission. The V-12U engine powered a generator, which powered electric motors, which were connected to the drive wheels through planetary final drives. The electromechanical transmission was supposed to make controlling the tank easier and increase its maneuverability.

However, trials showed that the transmission has not reached desired levels of reliability. Additionally, it required a large amount of copper, which was in deficit. An IS-6 prototype with a mechanical transmission showed that the IS-6 did not surpass the IS-2 or IS-3 in maneuverability, protection, or firepower. As a result, the tank was not adopted into mass production.

  

The IS-6 is a Soviet tier 8 premium heavy tank. Plans for this vehicle were drawn up in the construction bureau of the Chelyabinsk Kirov plant from December 1943 to the summer of 1944. Further development and the construction of the first prototype took place at the Uralmash plant. However, the vehicle had no advantages over the other heavy tank designs under consideration, and its armor was seen as inferior to the IS-4 (Object 701), so the IS-6 was not selected for production.The IS-6 replaced the KV-5 as the Soviet Tier 8 premium heavy tank available through the ingame store from patch 0.7.3. It is also currently available from the gift shop as a bundle with a garage slot all year-round. It is the 2nd (defender) cheapest of the Tier 8 premium heavy tanks. It has good armour and decent mobility, but an inaccurate gun with fairly low penetration.

One of the best fastest tank ever!

*AMX 30*

History of AMX 30 Tank

Title:  AMX-30 Char de Bataille 1966-2006, Vol II
Author: M P Robinson
Publisher:  Kagero Books
ISBN:  978-83-64596-04-9
 
Number 12 in Kagero's Photosniper series makes for volume II on the long serving French AMX 30 MBT.  It follows on from the coverage of the development and early service of the AMX 30 and the developments that took place once in service.  An excellent mix of interesting and informative text with lots of equally excellent photo coverage, this is another really good 80-page title for any post-war tank enthusiast.  The photos cover overall images as well as others of specific detail.

The service history doesn't just include only the European 3-colour camouflage schemes but the sand coloured schemes used in the Gulf War and on to the grey/black colours worn by the French FORAD units which provide the enemy units for training purposes to this day.  With details of unit markings, individual tank names and the variety of upgraded equipment applied to these tanks over the years, the photo coverage is just what modellers will be looking for.  In particular, the AMX-30B2 Brennus, where the turret and forward hull  are largely covered with ERA bricks.  Some 90 tanks were modified with this fit in the mid-1990s.  I hadn't seen much on this before, so the detail to be seen here is great.
