Vehicle Description

The main feature of this vehicle is its high-velocity APCR shells that come standard in the loadout, as well as some good HEAT shells. The agile IS-5 can quickly get into great position and take the first shot, forcing enemies to play by its rules.

Historical Reference

The development of the vehicle was started in 1949 by the Design Bureau of the Chelyabinsk Kirov Plant under the supervision of Joseph Kotin. In 1950 a preproduction batch of 10 vehicles was launched. After the vehicle underwent all trials and received upgrades, it was adopted for service in 1953 under the designation IS-8.
