The IS-2 is a Soviet tier 7 premium heavy tank.
Built in 1944, the IS-2 (IS-122) heavy tank was a modification of the IS-1. It featured a simple cast glacis plate. Elite Soviet Guards heavy tank regiments used the IS-2 extensively in the assaults on the fortress cities of Budapest, Breslau, and Berlin. These vehicles featured thick white stripes for quick identification by other Soviet tank crews. This vehicle, a tank of the 7th Guards Independent Heavy Tank Brigade, was made famous in a photo taken in front of the iconic Brandenburg Gate in the heart of Berlin.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- 122mm gun hits hard allowing peek-a-boom tactics where this tank excels
- Has the potential to generate a large amount of credits
- Relatively quick and nimble which helps getting into the face of enemies
- Very good sloped armor on hull all around - great at angling and sidescraping
- Crew fits IS-7 line tanks from KV-85 and up
Cons:
- No limited MM, however, sees same opponents as regular IS
- While generally sound, armor should not be completely relied on due to somewhat iffy turret and lower plate weakspot
- Expensive premium APCR ammunition eats into credits if used excessively
- Poor accuracy and somewhat long aim time can make aiming for weak spots difficult
- Less engine power and worse radio range compared to regular IS
