more correctly, is-3 was created after 2,3 weeks after ww2 ended

[@IS-2_1944]

The IS-3 was designed in 1944 but appeared too late in World War II to participate in the fighting. When it finally did see major combat, it didn't perform well. IS-3s took part in the 1956 invasion of Hungary and we're taken out by locals throwing Molotovs managed to destroy several of the tanks

The T-44 is also a WWII tank including all variants in the game (T-44, /100, and /122) however /100 and /122 would remain only prototypes. Maybe you could have one /100 and one /122 as prototype vehicles being field tested alongside the standard protection model T-44 and run across a Maus.

The T-34-100 is a prototype and was never used. The Czechs made their own by redesigning the turret the Turret making the T-34/100 the 50s. And yes the T-44 is also a world war 2 design but wasn't used in the war. The first T-54 prototype was also completed towards the end of 1945
