Russian T-10 Heavy Tank

The Soviet T-10 was a postwar heavy tank that continued the development line associated with the wartime IS series. Its armor, gun, and weight reflected a period when heavy tanks were still expected to provide capabilities beyond those of medium tanks. Later versions introduced substantial improvements. The rise of the main battle tank gradually reduced the rationale for maintaining a separate heavy-tank category, making the T-10 an important final stage of that Soviet design tradition.

Originally designated IS-8 before being renamed, the T-10 retained the Soviet heavy-tank emphasis on armor and a powerful gun. Subsequent T-10M improvements prolonged that lineage while universal main battle tanks increasingly displaced specialized heavy formations.
