The KV-2 was first developed in 1939-1940 and in just two weeks, prototypes had already been produced. The first combat action that the KV-2 saw was in the Winter War against Finland. Here it proved semi effective, but early on problems had arisen. The 152mm howitzer packed a powerful punch against armored vehicles, but it was an impractical weapon that was more well suited for the anti-position role, but it proved quite ineffective at that as well. The size and horrible mobility did not serve it well on the battlefield. Its huge silhouette made it easy pickings for German anti-tank guns. One slightly amusing problem with the KV-2 was that the gun could not fire in every direction due to the fact that the recoil could jam or completely destroy the turret ring.
