KV-1S with reverse reloader (USSR, HT-5, gift, a magazine for 6 shells with reverse reloading(!)) went to the supertest.
Reloading mechanics like the IS-3A. This will already be the 3rd such tank in the game with similar mechanics.
This is a proposed tank for the 2022 Meritorious Award (Veterans Award).
The tank has mechanics: a magazine with reverse reloading: the shell that reloads first will have the fastest reload, and subsequent ones will take longer to reload. For maximum DPM, the entire first loaded magazine is first fired, and then only the first loaded projectile must be fired.
