The K-91 is a Soviet tier 10 medium tank.
The vehicle was developed by the Design Bureau of the Army Engineering Committee under the supervision of A. F. Kravtsev from March through August 1949. The tank was supposed to position a driver in the fighting compartment, as well as feature a 100 mm gun with an automatic loading system, and coaxial large-caliber machinegun. The plan was to mount the 12-cylinder opposed-piston turbo-diesel engine. The mounting brackets with ski-shaped supports were used as support rollers. Development of the project was discontinued at the blueprints stage in December 1949.
The K-91 marks the end of its Soviet medium line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Top-rated gun handling, accuracy, penetration, DPM and APCR velocity. Able to snipe tank weakspots and permatrack with ease.
- High mobility, on par with the Object 140
- Oddly shaped turret can bounce often
- Low overall silhouette, great camouflage and small target
- Gun depression over the sides is exceptionally good
Cons:
- The only tier X med with rear-emplaced turret and limited turret traverse, troublesome in brawls
- Hull glacis is not as angled as its brethren, also has protruding sponsons over the tracks
- Gun depression is mediocre at 5° in front
- HEAT shells can tip off aiming with the sudden change in shell velocity, requiring target lead.
Performance
This tank is all about the gun - it is hands down one of the best medium guns in the game, with the only lacking stat being alpha damage. It possesses the highest standard penetration of any Tier X medium (capable of reliably penetrating Maus cheeks or Type 5 cupola) along with simply absurd DPM, accuracy and aim time. The K-91 is hilariously effective when played at range, having amazing camo values and a fantastic sniping gun, you can easily whittle health of enemies down without them even knowing where you are, in a similar manner to a high tier Swedish TD.
However, the tank is let down by the platform the gun sits on. The armour is not on the same level as the other Soviet Tier X meds, with a bulge in the turret that is easy to penetrate and a poorly armoured hull - most tanks that shoot you will penetrate you unless your oddly shaped turret pull off some miracle ricochets. Furthermore, the tank cannot turn its turret a full 360 degrees, which makes it very risky to brawl with. This tank is often compared to the Leopard 1 due to the similarities in play styles, with the K-91 being better for sniping and raw damage output, and the Leopard 1 having the higher alpha, peek-a-boo capability and flexibility due to the fully traversable turret.
Stay back, use your speed to take advantageous positions, and abuse the camouflage and sublime gun and the K-91 is a serious force to be reckoned with.
