I don't know why Spookston was so shocked he penned it. The turret sides on it are at best 150mm and almost entirely flat. The only place it has any sort of protection whatsoever is directly frontally. That, and the only shell that would have had realistic chances of penning him at a distance is the HEAT-FS, the IS-6 too rounded in the turret and sloped in the front for the uncapped APBC.

The mobility makes up for. What's killing heavy tanks nowadays is there's so much CHEAT FS around that your one advantage means nothing if the wrong tank comes around the corner. Maybe you get to use your armour maybe you won't. But the IS6 has the mobility to react and get out of the way if it needs to. Basically just becomes a medium tank in those situations and that is workable.

@@VelicoFides 2 reasons, I woulds day. First, the Jumbo is played by a lot of competent players. And by Gaijin's balancing logic, the more successful a tank is, the higher it's BR needs to be. Second, premium tanks are always at a lower BR than they should be. Why? Because players need incentive to buy them. Jumbo is a free vehicle that everyone can research. But you need to give Gaijin real money in order to play the VK.

@@ziga4870 you're explaining gaijins logic (except you're wrong in the fact that the vk 30 02m is a premium, it's not) but not justifying it. if the is6 can say 7.0 in your eyes in the interests of 'heavy tanks feeling like heavy tanks' when it's basically almost an mbt, then the 76 jumbo can go down to 5.3 where it'll actually function almost like an mbt.

speaking of 6.7 the SU-122-54 obviously lacks the turret and the armor of the IS-6, but it does get the same ammo and in addition to that the BR-471D, APDS and HEATFS, while it reloads a bit faster and has a rangefinder, so the firepower should be sufficient to say the least. you also get a coaxial KPVT and another one on the roof. I would say that it's a bit faster forwards, when compared to the IS-6, but a lot slower in reverse. I don't know, how much difference there is in size, but I do remember the SU-122-54 being fairly low in quite typical soviet TD fashion and both naturally have an abysmal gun depression. I'm not completely certain, but I seem to remember that the SU-122-54 used to be around 7.7, until it was gradually dropped down to 6.7 most likely due its to poor performance. I haven't played it at it's current battle rating, but I think that the change was probably warranted due to its mediocre armor and mobility (for a TD). I guess with the right playstyle you should be able to make the most of its firepower, but it's definitely more challenging to play than the IS-6. historically the SU-122-54 is pretty much a curiosity, since only 77 were made between 1955-1957 based on the T-54A chassis and it was clearly seen as a successor to the Soviet SUs that were used in WWII, but it was seen as essentially obsolete from the start. on the other hand it's either funny or sad, when you compare it to the ISU-152 (and the ISU-152M from 1959) or the SU-100 (and the SU-100M variant), which both were in service for far longer despite being earlier designs, but then again thousands of both were built.
