Title: Khurasan releases IS-4 Soviet Heavy Tank (ad)
Post by: Khurasan Miniatures on January 22, 2019, 04:07:44 PM

We are very pleased to release our latest “Europe 46-49” armoured fighting vehicle in 15mm scale, the Soviet IS-4.  A competing design to the IS-3, the IS-4 was basically an “IS-2 from Hell,” with the same huge cannon but heavier armour and a longer hull. 

Whilst we provide a fictional background for this range, the IS-4 was in fact actually designed and manufactured, over 200 being built.  Soviet armoured philosophy changed in the meantime, with MBTs replacing the medium and heavy tank distinctions, and the IS-4 was stationed in heavy tank battalions in the Far East.  However, had there been a war in Europe between the Allies and Soviets on the heels of the defeat of the Germans, the IS-4 would likely have seen action.  The IS-4 had early and later stowage and external tank configurations, and pewter parts are provided for both. 

Available now.

Thanks, that was the thought!  We have a Maus as well, but the resin caster still hasn't delivered it two years after ordered (and paid for).

Nice! Might have to get some at some point for a Red Gambit Tabletop scenario!
