Танк Ис-1 — первый Иосиф Сталин, о котором забыли ради его младшего брата

One hundred and seven vehicles, four months on the assembly line, and the first battle, ending in complete defeat. The story of the IS-1 heavy tank—a vehicle designed to destroy Tiger tanks, but which became only a stepping stone to the legendary IS-2. How Soviet designers in Tankograd created a tank named after Stalin, why two guns didn't fit in the turret, and what lesson did the war teach the first crews of the shortest-lived heavy tank of World War II.
