IS-3 is good

[frantictictac]

all 7.7 heavy tanks suffer

[Aaron]

The reload time sucks so much lol

[Franss the Coffee Addict]

Its armor would be good if it didnt get face HEAT-FS on its own battle rating and in uptier

[Cop Unit 12]

I like the IS3. But you need to know what can carry HEATFS and watch your horrible reload.

[⁂☮Abra☮⁂]

it have a really nice looking tank, but tank gameplay at least for me is really bad in WT, tho i like the models of tanks/vehicles

many people will say "yes, it have so much armor" in my experience its a 6/10 5/10 tank, in war thunder tanks who are slow=bad, slow reload, speed is not terrible but still very slow, all crew members are close to each other, so, easily destroyed by one shot

[-NODER-_Novastorm_]

Awfull reload plus bad armour because of the br it is, you better playing bmps or t54 at that br.

Plays like any heavy tank: Almost useless in uptiers, very good in downtiers

[⚜Z3⚜ eris.exe]

its "playable" but you have way, way better options

[Spungy bob]

It's ridiculous in down tiers, I struggle to kill it when I see it at U.S. 6.7

[ketale]

waste of time and trash this game atleast.

That.

Though, at that BR chances are quite high you get tiered against Germany 6.7 because there are a lot of Tiger II fans - If so, enjoy your meal.

Its an okay tank, it has good speed, a solid reverse, the armour can work the biggest flaw of the soviet heavy is the 122mm cannon. I can not rant enough about how much the 122mm cannon sucks in this game. For a gun that takes so long to reload you are going to cry when your round decides to catch on literally anything and everything. If I had a time machine I would go back and tell Stalin to stick to the 100mm cannon cause thats how deep my hatred flows for it.

Its like all 7.7 heavies are awful.
Caernarvon? Just a bigger centurion.
Is-3? This comment.
Conqueror? Its like IS with no explosive filler, but you can punch through tiger front but good luck scoring kills unless it hits ammo directly.
Is-6? Downtiered is a beast. still has long reload but is suprisingly quick. Pretty good alternative to is-3.
M103? Hardly see anyone use it. Probably because it looks like a spoon flipped upside down.
