Plans for this vehicle were drawn up in the construction bureau of the Chelyabinsk Kirov plant from December 1943 to the summer of 1944. Further development and the construction of the first prototype took place at the Uralmash plant. However, the vehicle had no advantages over the other heavy tank designs under consideration, and its armor was seen as inferior to the IS-4 (Object 701), so the IS-6 was not selected for production.
The IS-6 replaced the KV-5 as the Soviet Tier 8 premium heavy tank available through the ingame store from patch 0.7.3. It is also currently available from the gift shop as a bundle with a garage slot all year-round. It is the cheapest of the Tier 8 premium heavy tanks. It has good armour and decent mobility, but an inaccurate gun with fairly low penetration.
