# IS-7

Role
: Heavy Tank

## [General information](/md/rv/vehicles/is-7.md#general-information)

Description
: The **IS-7** is a Heavy Tank, a late-1940s Soviet prototype that pushed the limits of armour, firepower, and weight; at 68 tonnes it was one of the heaviest tanks ever built. The design was cancelled in favour of lighter vehicles, but it influenced later Soviet heavy tanks. In-game it is a tracked vehicle with a crew of five (including one passenger seat), powered by an **M50T** diesel producing 1,050 horsepower for 15.4 hp/t and 60 km/h forward.
The main armament is the **130mm S-70** with OF-482M and BR-482B and a 10-second reload; secondary armament includes a coaxial **14.5mm KPVT** and **7.62mm RP-46**, a commander’s 14.5 mm KPVT, and a driver’s 7.62 mm RP-46. The commander turret is stabilized. Sights are 3.75x and 7.5x with no rangefinder.
