COBI IS-3 Soviet Heavy Tank
The legendary IS-3 heavy tank was first revealed to the world during the Victory Parade in Berlin on September 7, 1945. Designed at the end of World War II, this formidable armored vehicle was intended to intimidate the Western Allies with its striking silhouette, thick armor, and powerful firepower. Weighing over 45 tons, the IS-3 featured highly sloped armor plates that increased protection by causing incoming shells to ricochet, while its 122 mm D-25T cannonāfamiliar from the IS-2ādelivered devastating firepower on the battlefield.
Despite its massive weight, the IS-3 remained surprisingly mobile thanks to its W-11 diesel engine, making it one of the most advanced heavy tanks of its era. Developed as a response to German heavy armor, the IS-3 became an enduring symbol of late-war Soviet tank design and Cold War military power.
The COBI IS-3 tank model has been recreated in an impressive 1:28 scale, faithfully capturing the tankās distinctive rounded shapes and dramatic profile. Built from over 1,100 elements, the finished model measures 35.5 cm in length and features numerous functional and visual details that bring this historic machine to life.
Under the removable turret, youāll find carefully reproduced interior details, including a brick-built replica of the W-11 engine beneath the service hatch. Printed periscopes on the turret, working tracks, a rotating turret, and an adjustable gun barrel further enhance the realism and interactivity of the model. Completing the set is a figure of a Soviet tank driver in a characteristic navy-blue uniform, making this model a striking centerpiece for any military collection.
