IS-2 - Heavy Tank | 1:25 Scale
The Tank That Broke Berlin.
The IS-2 (Iosif Stalin-2) was the Soviet answer to German Tigers and Panthers. Massive 122mm gun. Thick, sloped armor. Raw Soviet power that could smash through anything.
While Tigers hunted from ambush, the IS-2 advanced. When Panthers retreated, the IS-2 pursued. This was the tank that led the final assault on Berlin.
Now you can build Stalin's hammer brick by brick—the most powerful production heavy tank of WWII.

The IS-2 Story:
Developed in response to German Tigers, the IS-2 entered service in 1944. Its 122mm gun fired shells so powerful they could penetrate any German tank and demolish concrete fortifications. Sloped armor deflected most German shots.
Over 3,800 IS-2s were produced. They led Soviet offensives across Eastern Europe and into Germany. At the Battle of Berlin, IS-2s smashed through street barricades and reduced buildings to rubble.
German tank crews feared the IS-2's massive gun. Soviet commanders loved its reliability. Unlike Tigers, IS-2s didn't break down - they just kept advancing.
When you build this model, you're recreating the tank that broke the Wehrmacht's back and raised the Soviet flag over the Reichstag.
