AMVAS: there existed two modification of KV-2 tank. In different sources I have met pair of their names either KV-2 Mod. 1939, KV-2 Mod. 1940, or KV-2 Mod. 1940 and KV-2 Mod. 1941.
On my site I use KV-2 Mod. 1940 and KV-2 Mod. 1941 names of those modifications.
KV-2 Mod. 1940, 2nd Tank Division/3rd Mechanised Corps, Baltic area, July 1941 [2]
