that's not IS-3, IS-3 had 6 rollers, this one has 7.

Its a T10. It differs from the IS-3 and IS-4 mainly by having a longer body (hence extra roller) and the V shaped glacis plate extends all the way across the front of the tank. (It doesnt in the IS series)

what about IS-7...hull is pretty same but turret is diferent.

anyway i did call the officials and asked about the tank, they told it was IS-2 used as target. But thats definetly not IS-2.

imo it looks like hull of either IS-7 or T-10 and turret of T-10A, but with D-25T instead of D-25TA gun.

The best I can come up with is a T10 chasse with a D-25T gun with an early T10 turret.

Look at the drivers hatch on both pictures and compare the gun mantle to the D-25T gun. The gun on this picture is the D-25TA I think. But the turret is similar in shape and the cut at the back but the periscope are different so may be latter?

Forget words,actions will show your true ambitions!The Battlefield,In many cases, the terrain of a battlefield can be the best resource a commander has. A clump of trees, an abandoned house, or a drainage ditch can all be powerful tools in the right hands

yes offog, leaning to that as well.

good angle on that photo, hull looks identical but turret is totally difirent. so imo it mite be turret of IS-3M or T10 (early) with pretty same probability.
