Story about ISU-122 in 1983


Recommended Posts

One of the russians I met told me the following tale:

In 1983 he was stationed in Ural mountains. He was in Soviet army training to be tank commander. One day their new commander ask them to drive 5 WWII ISU-122 from "storage" to the exercise field. Then commander climbed into the wooden tower and radioed to 3 ISUs to position themselves couple of meters beside the tower. He ordered 3 ISUs to fire simultaniously on his command.

They did. The blast from the ISUs broke all windows in the tower. Then the tower itself slowly collapsed to the ground... Commander had many cuts and bruises...
