Su-100 and T-34/85 don't match up very well with the King Tiger unless close. Is-2 would be a decent counter.

which model of the Is-2? the 1 with the 122mm main gun? IIRC, the Js-2s (Is-2s) with the 122mm main gun only had HE rounds distrubuted during the war.

its a very good tank its slanted armor {102mm} and that big 88mm cannon makes it very reliable and surviable

Yeah if I remember right there was such a shortage of 100mm barrels that the Uncle Joe tank had to use the 122mm. The Reds made a tank killer tho with the 100mm gun didnt they? the SU-100? With the best gun of the war on it?

The best gun the Russians had but the high velocity 88 was the best anti tank gun hands down in the war, well maybe the JadgTigers gun was more lethal but it was designed as a naval gun.

The D-25T gun fired a combination round (BR-471 APHE) which proved to be pretty effective against German armor late in the war, but largely because the Germans helped! Due to a shortage of manganese starting in the summer of '44, the Germans were forced to switch to nickel alloyed high-carbon steel, which if you're familiar with metallurgy means HARD but BRITTLE. In many cases the JS-2's 122mm didn't penetrate, but shatter the panzer's armor, especially at the welds.
