The T-10 heavy tank was the last heavy tank produced by the Soviet Union. It was based on the JS (Joseph Stalin) series of heavy tanks.
In 1948, the Soviet General Tank Directorate ordered the production of a new heavy tank, originally named the JS-8 (or IS-8 for "Iosif" Stalin).
By the time it entered service in 1953, the JS-10 heavy tank had been renamed the T-10 heavy tank because of Stalin's death in March of that year.
As the Cold War progressed, the Soviets began to realize that it was better to spend their resources on a large number of general purpose main battle tanks instead of on a small number of heavy tanks.
Production of the T-10 heavy tank ceased in the 1960s, and no more heavy tanks were produced by the Soviet Union after that.
However, the T-10 heavy tank was still being used as late as the mid-1990s.
The turret looks a bit weird but all in all a good tank.
The turret looks like early T-s "mushoom head".
