Hej ztriker,

Se följande text ang. KV-122 och visst bör den ha sett strider.
The KV-122 was manufactured on the second half of autumn 1943. Basically design as the KV-85 only the gun caliber was changed to a new 122mm gun. The idea of this modernization made was necessity to strengthen the armament of the Soviet Tanks. The KV-122 was used mostly for adjustment of fire of the new 122mm gun (initially called D-25T) in field combat conditions. Later the D-25T gun was installed in almost all the JS-tanks.
Practically the KV-122 were not in serial production, but the maintenance sections of the combat units made local modernization of the damaged KV-85 tanks while installing the JS-tank turrets on their hulls.

Mvh
