Become the defender that every team needs with this World War II heavy tank!

The IS-7 is an iconic tank on this game’s battlefield, but the historical vehicle went through several iterations during its design process.

Now, one of those draft designs has become the foundation for the latest World War II Premium tank. Introducing the Soviet Tier VIII Object 259A Heavy Tank!

Gameplay Tips

One member of the Wargaming team called the Object 259A “a baby IS-7.” It fits. The Object 259A offers a classic Soviet heavy tank experience, complete with a 122mm gun and the high alpha damage it brings.

This tank also features a heavily sloped, pike-nose hull that will stand the best chance of deflecting shots when facing an enemy head-on. Position yourself appropriately and let your opponents know that you mean business.

• Use your powerful gun to land the opening shots and send the enemy team scattering across the map.
• Your mobility is better than that of the average heavy tank. Take advantage of your high top speed to find the best spot to mount a master defense.
• Make the best use of your armor profile by finding positions that will allow you to protect your hull and play hull down.
