“For when you absolutely must have the biggest tank on the battlefield. With much greater armor and firepower, it easily dispatches smaller tanks while absorbing tremendous punishment. However it has a very high population cost and the slow rate of fire can cause it to be bogged down by overwhelming odds.”

The last and best Soviet heavy tank was the IS-10 (Iosef Stalin), renamed T-10 after Stalin's death. It came equipped with thick armor, infrared night vision and a machine gun in addition to its main cannon. The Egyptian Army employed some T-10s during the Six Day War and the model remained part of the Soviet arsenal into the 1990s".
