[h3]Tank: USSR KV Series (All Versions)[/h3]

It is time for our first unloved competition for the new year of 2023. To start it off we selected the Kliment Voroshilov (KV) tank series for the USSR. Being Russia's first mass produced heavy tank with 5,219 units for the KV-1 visions alone, there should be plenty of potential skins out there. You can select from a variety of models: such as the KV-1 (L-11), KV-2 1939, KV-1S, KV-1 (ZiS-5), KV-85, KV-122, KV-2 (ZiS-6), KV-220, KV-1E and KV-2 1940.



Remember to keep the entries historical and safe to use (no swastikas or hakaristi). We can not wait to see what beauties you will come up with. Good luck and have fun!
