The KW-220 (another designation: KV-220 or Object 220) is a prototype Soviet heavy tank from World War II. The only prototype of this car was built in the second half of 1940, but the vehicle never entered mass production. The length of the tank was 8.83 meters and a width of 3.41 meters. The drive was provided by a single V-2SN engine with a power of 850 HP. The main armament was the 85mm F-30 cannon and three 7.62mm machine guns.
The KW-220 was developed at the Leningrad plant as a successor to the KW-1 heavy tank. In order to shorten the research and development work, the general assumptions of the KW-1 car were used, but also many new elements were used. First of all, there was a heavier main armament, a completely new turret, as well as a new engine with a turbocharger generating more maximum power. Also, the armor on the front of the hull and turret was thicker to 100 mm. Interestingly, the same hull and chassis were used as in the KW-1, but it was extended. The KW-220 was lost during the fighting in December 1941.
