The entire IS tank line was developed as a replacement of the aging and outdated [[wikipedia:Kliment Voroshilov tank|KV tank]] series. Lighter, faster and harder hitting than the old KVs, the IS was equipped with a 122mm gun capable of penetrating any German tank or fortification it came across and was primarily used as a breakthrough tank in assaults. The IS series saw new variants developed after the war, but became obsolete after the emergence of the main battle tank concept. The Soviets retired the IS from service, but continued its service in other communist countries. {{clear}} Loading editor Below are some commonly used wiki markup codes.
