Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet JS-4 Heavy Tank - Plastic model kit #05573

There were two Soviet tanks named JS-4: Object 245 JS-4 and Object 701 JS-4. The Object 245 was an improved version of the JS-2 armed with 100mm D-10T cannon. The other JS-4 tank was a new design developed by the Kirov Plant in Leningrad. Also based on the JS-2, the Object 701 featured a longer hull and an additional set of road wheels. It was powered by a better engine and equipped with thicker armour on both the hull and the turret. A 122mm gun was used as an armament. The engine cooling system of the tank was adopted from the German Panther tank of WWII.

Batch production of the JS-4 lasted from 1947 to 1949. It was ended due to the tank's low speed and mobility. Only 250 units were issued, most of which were sent to the Russian Far East.
