Thanks!

The Kv 122 is pretty cool.

The KV-122, beautiful tank! It's now on my to buy list.

I like all of them.

Me, too.

Just a few side comments regarding the US M3A1 37mm AT Gun. By and large, the US Army, (to their great chagrin), found that the M3A1 37mm AT Gun was entirely inadequate against German armor, except for Pz.Is and IIs, which were first encountered by US forces in North Africa. The greatest successes with the M3A1 AT Gun can be attributed to the USMC, which found that the 37mm AT Round could penetrate virtually ANY WWII Japanese armor, sometimes even passing through the entire vehicle, and out the other side! The M3A1 enjoyed great success as an Anti-personnel weapon against infantry, by using Canister Rounds to deadly effect. The M3A1 was virtually identical to the Main Guns found in the US/Allied M3/M3A1/M3A3/M5/M5A1-series Light Stuart/Honey Tanks, and as secondary armament (in the Turret) of the US/Allied M3-series Medium Lee/Grant Tanks...
