Art of Winning: KV Tanks
Vložit
- čas přidán 31. 01. 2023
- In the late 1930s the Soviet tank industry was in a very interesting place as there were numerous tank designs competing for the spot of the perfect heavy tank. In the end, though, after thorough testing, countless land battleships were swept aside to give way to the one and only Kliment Voroshilov tank, or simply KV. This vehicle was a progenitor of the whole series of tanks that played a major part in WW2... and this video is all about those armor-clad monsters!

#WarThunder - Hry
That moment when A KV-2 Got downtiered, you round a corner, and see 152mm of Pure Soviet Beast staring at you
I have taken down this steel beast many times when it was downtiered and I still do not show it fear.
@@wildcard5369 i mean yeah, long af reload
@@cheese7071 yeah kv2 arent really scary if you know how to deal with them, or hit their cheeks
Yea I was playing 2.7 and this thing was around the corner
i was playing my american 2.7 line up. i saw a KV-2 turn the corner, then missed my M5A1
This is a certified 1940 KV-2 production variant being a rare premium while the 1939 prototype sits in the tech tree Gaijin moment
The production one has worse flat armor
Snail moment
KV-220 is absolutely monsterous 😮
True
Of course it is, it's a Russian premium
@@holokyttaja5476 🤣🤣
it's monstrous!!! I agree..
It really should not have been added at all. As a KV-220 owner I haven't used it in battles after being on the receiving end of that tank. It's just that broken op compared to most vehicles at that br range. Some more experienced players can play against that thing on equal footing but against most players it's just non-stop seal clubbing
I remember once, a KV-2 missed his target (a Panzer IV) and hit me (a Panzer III) instead
My turret literally left the physical map
Kv2 crew: task failed succesfully
You weren't the target...
@@kv2_tankUhhh
Thanks 😅
Why does Stalin hate you for that particular round? Not an insult but I feel like the KV 2's shell was guided by Stalin and hit you I would be very much confuse as well.
My favorite is the KW 1 C 756 (r). The cannon is great, and the armour is super good. I love taking out in sim to grind (not as an imposter i plaster it with crosses)
I prefer the KV-85 because I'm poor
If someone is fooled by the German KV-1C they deserve their repair costs doubled
@@quarkedbutt3957 lmao, since only Germany have that kind of kv (huge gun with muzzle brake and weird looking turret), why would anyone still fooled by it?
now KV1B is another story
Woe upon you.
Fun fact, that turret is an actual modification for the KV 1 line, the 1942 variant to be exact. But no the cannon obviously
The Zis-6 was my first premium, I got it when it first came out and it remains my favourite tank all these years later
Not my first premium but its def my favorite. I use it anytime I play 5.3 Soviet and it never fails to curb stomp.
I love the KV-1E, paired with KV-1 ZiS 5. I use that mostly when playing downtier and it's so fun.
Bounce every time
The KV-1S was such fun when I used it. For some reason I never noticed it having less armour, plus the new turret design it has is very trolly when it comes to bouncing shells.
they forgot to say the kv220 turret can bounce a long 88mm
Whaddya mean War Thunder is pay to win????? ( KV-220 and IS-6)
To the both of you, and as a 220 player, no, it really doesn’t bounce long 88s, as long as the shot doesn’t hit the cheeks, and it’s good to give Germany a taste of their own medicine at 5.7 so😁
@@PzKpfw.VPanther yep it's does I have it myself and trust me legit p2w at the very least you know how to shake your turret and angle
@@VolkKorvi281 nope most of the time it really eat the splash damage getting crew orange only they have to aim so perfectly just to hit the weak spot in some occasion it pen through and only damage 2 crews
If only 220 meant 220mm. The carnage would be perfect.
as a japan main and having just gotten my first kv-1 and kv-2 i love them, being able to tank shots from most calibres, contrary to japanese tanks being taken out instantly with he smallest rounds
My favourite tank? KV-1 (Zis-5), it's just amazing, I have +300 battles with +500 kills and -/+300 death, a pure monster
Ofc its broken asf
@@Arthur_Neves the reason it's my most played tank
@@Arthur_Neves its not
@@Callsign_Merkava if it actually had 75mm of armour wouldnt, but i honestly cant pen its side turret with american 75
and it's pen pretty reliably by M24 in the turret from 900m..
KV-2s are the only KVs that didn't get much from volumetics!..
Any chance we'll actually see the 1940's KV-2 again?
I hope so
Up
No i don't think so
N O
Using the Marder 3H with the PaK 40 75mm cannon to kill the Kv tanks is so satisfying
KV-IB is my absolute favorite tank to play. It's a moving bunker and smart shot placement turns it into a killing machine.
Its a shame that the KV-2 1940 is unobtainable in the russian tech tree but its a regular premium in the german tech tree, the early production is the researchable one, and the experimental varaint is easier to obtain than the orignal
Hey look it's those a holes that always kill me from out of nowhere
Really wish the Object 229 aka KV-9 can come to the game sometime... it's a really interesting design and rather unique compared to other upgrades on the KV series of tanks
While the would be cool warthunder is focused on being super realist
I can see the kv 9 will be add soon consider that we already have flame simulation and the churchil crocodile
@@CT-0001 i smell some passive-aggressiveness? what's your take? do you want to see paper tanks like in the game? kv-9 was built btw so we might actually see it come in the future, who knows?
It’s already in the game. It is called the is-10 aka T-10 instead
Bite size kv-2, aka smooth KV
Oh man i love my KV-85 , really capable tank even in not so experienced tanker. Tho when played by one it is a nightmare for enemy team.
The thing is the kv 85 Is so middle child that not alot of people know how to kill it
The kv-1 l-11 is an absolute beast. For very good armor at it's br, you get a decent reload speed with a weak spot on the front (driver's optics) so it is a pretty balanced tank.

@@tony_seroka someone tk this guy in air rb please ☹️
Bt-42
The KV-1's are my favourite heavy tanks especiialy the KV-1S, it actually has such a nice reverse gear.
My favourite one is the kv1 zis 5 , it stood alive against an attack of 5 tigers and I did double kill with it and I defeat a plane with a Canon shot, its incredible.
Great video, I hope you'd make something like this regarding the Pz III and Pz IV tanks
I love all the KV series tanks.
Kv-2 Zis-6 is the one do best in. Had a good 9 kill match with it yesterday. A few great ones. Best when I can sneak around.
Could you add exterior lights on the vehicules? Like navigation, formation or takeoff/landing lights on aircrafts and headlights for tanks for example.
As professional and stylish as ever!
I just started researching the first kv-1 in the tree. Your game is great 👍
You will feel the pain soon
@@Sultanhakim3 - My, aren't you inspirational.
wonder if they'll do an art of winning for the churchill tanks. there's quite a few of them and it might be interesting
the churchill iii is definetly suffering, with solidshot bouncing from flat armor and all. funnily enough, the 6-pounder had apds ammo.
The KV-1 C german tank is what helped me grind up to the early cold war tanks... so it's my favorite XD
You Guys Made an Insane Game. Thank You For Making It Free
It's amazing that Warthunder can add non-made and non-used tanks and vehicles, planes, boats, etc.
KV-85 you have so much fun with that one
for me that would be the KV-1 L-11, it has good armor and firepower and is faster than other tanks of his class, other than that, aiming from the comanders hatch on the top of the turret is exelent and is good on maps with a lot of hills, and is good as suporting fire.
KV2-zis6 is my top vehicle on my service record followed immediately by the object 248
I absolutely love KV2 ZIS 6. Absolute glass cannon. Perfect ballistics and pens nearly any armor.
It can even overpressure Tiger 1 and other heavy tanks.
then you can overpressure Tiger 1s with M4A3(105)'s HE or Chi-Ha Short..
at least in test drive is not much more accurate that the normal KV-2, and that one can overpressure any tank!..
In wotb i tried the kv-122 also known as kv-1s but with a up gunned turret
I think the description "unplayable" is the best. After a few meters or seconds on land, on the water or in the air, the final destination is reached. You are shot out of the game by enemy programs as if there were no missed shots, rebounds or an element of surprise - and then immediately switch off again.
Я думаю, что описание «неиграбельный» является лучшим. Через несколько метров или секунд на суше, на воде или в воздухе достигается конечный пункт назначения. Вы вылетаете из игры вражескими программами так, как будто не было ни промахов, ни рикошетов, ни элемента неожиданности - и тут же снова отключаетесь.
I only have three KVs, the KV1s with the l-11 cannon and the "S" variant. i also have the KV2. these are all monsters to play on the battlefield, though the best Ive ever had was with the KV2 just stranded in the middle of nowhere on the mozdok map and the enemy team tried getting their shells at me but i survived almost all shots and destroyed like 3 - 4 enemy before i died. But the flaws of the KV (not of the kv2) was that their armor isnt always going to protect you. and their guns sometimes fail to pen other tanks due to less than 100mm pen (I alr have that much pen in japan with the chi nu, chi ha lg, and the m24). but overall the KV is one of the best tank series ive ever played.
This video makes me want to play the KV-1
have too many kills in my kv tanks. the 1b and 220 are op. should have mentioned the 248 w the 100mm mounted in that turret
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I WILL LEAK CLASSIFIED DOCS
People are gonna get war thunder banned In the US 🤣
Yes! Leak the documents!
BASED AF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My personal favorite its the KV-1 L11, i could play pretty much any other KV tank (except for premiums), but there's just something fun about playing the KV-1 L-11
It’s quite bad for its br (my opinion)
@@RichBatangKalye yeah that's the fun in it, it's not the best for the tier
@@perunapelaaja_1772 true, I find m4a1 better at same br
9:14 lol good luck with that when 90% of jumbos you face will have the entire front of the hull covered in bushes
Usually I’m the lead tank going to a capture point when im using kv-1s
I was in a match where everyone went to the C point and a enemy kw2 rushed to the point and got blasted by the whole team, it was too angry to die, only the driver was alive and it was taking hits from everywere, i tried to ammorack it with my STUH and HEAT round but it wasnt enough, at the end it burned because it was hit on the motor
KV2 turrets also could not turn while on a hill due to the uneven weight distribution
I loved KW II 754 (r) but after gaijin removed its AP rounds and left it only with HE/HESH it wasnt that good anymore. I rarely play it nowdays :/
irl it wasn't jsut the loaders reloading, the commander and gunner had to help reload the KV-2 aswell
KV-1 (L-11) monster of low br and KV 85 it's not a perfect tank but it's do his job pretty well for me
Gaijin could you please explain the TBA Multi Dart 100 and how to use it ?
KV2 ZIS-6 IT HAS LONGER BARREL FOR THOSE DISTANCE SHOTS
😉👍
The KV-1C756 was OP at times, but since the BR got changed it feels very underpowered. Atleast for me.
i love the kv2
1st time I fought a kv 220 my team went head on and I think it got 7 of us before a light tank flanked it.. Well the light tank couldn't kill it either xD
I would take this videos weak spot hints to heart if I didn't already know that VOLUMETRIC would eat 80% of them.
4:34 that recoil though Jesus 😂
5:00 there is also an other KV-2… the KV-2 ZiS6
One time i was playing on cargo port i rounded a corner and a KV-2 was staring me dead in the eye
8:05 he told " it's well protected " while it got hit in the turret killing Gunner and other crew members
So for the kv 1s, you could say the s does stand for sport
My favorite are the Kv 1 B and the Kv 220
It'd be cool if anyone could get the KV-2 (1940) but the was years ago, and there aren't any left on the market.
Considering we have a Finnish sub-line in the Swedish tech tree, would it be possible to move the KV-1B into the Nordic tree?
oh god...a combo of that, fantastic Swedish 4.0 SPGs and something like the TB-18, thats a match winning lineup right there
Personally, the ZiS-5 is my favorite as it makes me feel like a god. Unpenable and yet still able to kill plenty of enemies, that tank will do serious damage if you use it right.
my fav tank is the kw 2
3:58 yh thats why 152mm howitzer cant penetrate me into side of hull lmao
I wonder what the battlefield would’ve looked like with the KV-5s thundering over
I literally bounced a KV-2 shell in a Sherman. Stalinium vs americium at its finest
やっぱソ連の戦車は何度見てもかっこいいから、ゲットする価値あり👍
W
KW1 C 756 (r) is my favorite
You guys should add the KV-8 flamethrower tank..........?
My favourite kV is the kv-2 1939
I need Kv-1E 😭 (I love kv-1e)
the KV-220 is almost a basis for the KV-3
The kw2 is my favorite because its almost identical to the kv2 but it doesn't have to fight german guns
Its really good for grinding sl and in combination with the pz.bef.wg.iv you can get an average of 60k sl per game. Sometimes i brawl in close quarters in the kw2 and win plus i can even hold a point alone.
Best kv is the kv 220 hands down 19 kills in my first match with this beast
What about the side armor weakness on the KV-85/122 chassis?
KV-1S! A player's advice: please add the Panther II again to the tree!
Will nukes ever be added to custom games as an option to enable disable?
Thumbnail: shows a couple KV’s
BT42: *Yes I am a KV*
Good question gajin
my fav bt-42
LOL Peezee? Nice job with the tts there Gaijin
can you guys make a simulator controls tutorial? im kinda struggling here
KV 2 is my favourite kV
"One of these Dead Fridges IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS"
Will you ever add the br changing for bots in custom battles?
KV1S my beloved
KV 220 is my favorit
i've killed a KV-1 with an sdkfz 234/2
i shot it in the back of the turret where it keeps its ammo with a 50mm ap round. one hit kill.
Now that finnish line of vehicle is introduced to sweden....
Can we get KV1B in sweden too?
The KV series is ridiculously easy to deal with War Thunder.
You shoot them in the lower front plate or flank and shoot, then watch the fireworks.
My favorite kv2 is the bt-42 trust me that is a finnish kv2 whitout the armour and whith a lot more speed
KV-85 is awesome
I turned a corner and saw the black void of a kv2s gun pointed right at me
when will we have the t50 /126 in metal beasts??? Also any tips for playing the Early t34s???
flank, it has good front armor, make sure to not over angle. Force them too shoot your angled front armor
Can there be a modern Dutch airforce decal in the game? Please?
Make video about finish tanks
turn yo gamma up
