WoT RU 1.32 Common Test: Object 279 In-Game Screenshots & Historical Reference

Object 279 [USSR, Tier-11, HT, techtree]

Object 279 was a special-purpose tank. It was created for operations in difficult terrain, including swampy areas, deep snow cover and vertical obstacles in the form of boulders, stumps, anti-tank obstacles and hedgehogs. The increased cross-country ability of the heavy tank was achieved by using four tracks in the chassis. Attention was also paid to protection against weapons of mass destruction. The tank was armed with a 130-mm M-65 cannon with a partially mechanized ammunition rack. The tank was developed in 1955-1959 jointly by the design teams of LKZ and VNII-100 in Leningrad under the leadership of L.S. Troyanov. In December 1959, the first prototype of the tank was manufactured at LKZ and in May 1960 it passed factory tests, but by decision of the government in January 1961 all further work on the vehicle was stopped.
