About this vehicle

The tank was developed from July 1943 through 1944 on the initiative of the construction bureau of the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant. The first prototype of the Object 701 (#0) was built in April 1944. It underwent running trials, which revealed a number of disadvantages in the vehicle's design. From May through June 1944, another two prototypes were built (#1 and #2). In July and August of the same year, the vehicles underwent field trials, but were eventually dismantled in September. Later, their hulls and turrets were used in the construction of prototypes #5 and #6.
