The Red Army entered WWII with most of its heavy artillery drawn by horses, making its movement slow and vulnerable to attack. The KV2 assault gun was built to address the need for mobile artillery, but it was unsatisfactory as a fighting vehicle, mainly because of its large and overweight turret. It was therefore decided to replace the KV2 with a new vehicle based on the KV1S chassis. But instead of a turret, the 152mm ML20S gunhowitzer would be mounted in a low profile casemate. Several designs were put forward, but the KV14 showed most promise and was further developed into the SU152 by February 1943. This selfpropelled gun weighed 45.5 tonnes and had frontal armour up to 75mm thick, powered by a 600bhp V2K diesel engine it had a top speed of 43km/h. It was built at the Chelyabinskiy Kirovskiy factory until replaced in production by the ISU152 in December 1943. Though designed as an assault gun, it gained a reputation as a "Tiger Killer", as the huge blast of the 152mm shell could blow the turret clean off the German tank!
