Supertest: Object 279
This tank will likely not be introduced in the game, according to PROTanki. Pretty much like the Sturmtiger. A few years ago, WG said it had a list of tanks that are too strong for this game and have a plan for a certain game mode for those vehicles. The idea probably has already died.
And just to remind you – the first plans to introduce this tank to World of Tanks were made in April 2012, when it was recognized that the Soviet tech tree is significantly weaker than the others, and most of the vehicles available there are worse than their counterparts from other nations. At that time, this problem was considered to be significant, and as a result, the expansion of the Soviet tree with new tanks and lines was planned, including:
In the line of medium tanks after the 9th tier (T-54), the addition of T-62, T-72 and T-90 was planned.
In the first branch of heavy tanks (IS-7 line), the following tanks were planned to be added: Object 277, Object 279 and Object 195;
In the second branch of heavy tanks (line from IS-4), the following tanks were to be available: Object 430, T-63 and Hammer;
In the branch of tank destroyers, a Taran was to be added;
To the branches of self-propelled guns, after the VIII tier artillery, the following vehicles were added: Pion, Kondensator (the first branch), as well as Akatsiya and Koalitsiya (the second branch).
