The Panzerkampfwagen KV-IA 753(r) was the name given to German captured Soviet KV-1 Heavy Tanks.
Description[]
The Panzerkampfwagen KV-IA 753(r) used much of the same core components as the standard KV-1 tank, using the same chassis and hull. However, many examples were modified to improve combat performance. The two most common were the addition of a commander's cupola borrowed from the Panzer IV and the 75mm KwK 40 L/43 main gun also borrowed from the Panzer IV Ausf. F2.
