The Object 252 is a Tier VIII Soviet Premium Heavy Tank. A study tank with lots of armor and an excellent gun, it's gun has 440 alpha damage that can do well in trading shots but has bad dpm with only 4 shots per minute, but has the same penetration as the IS-3’s BL-9 gun. An unusual feature of this tank is it's lower glacis plate - well sloped and extremely it can resist shells with less than 215 mm of penetration so lower tier vehicles may have trouble penetrating any part of its frontal armor although higher tier vehicles will punch through it with ease. It has decent speed of 35 km/h and its well streamlined turret at 250 mm thick proves impenetratable to even the Jagdpanzer E 100. It's 130 mm of frontal armor sloped in a pike nose shape can resist stronger guns and the sides are 100 mm thick so it can sidescrape, but won't be effective against much stronger guns. It was prepared during the development of the IS-6 and it does look similar but do have major differences. It does have two cupolas at the top that can be hit but tanks of the same country will have penetrating it because they are quite small and most Soviet tanks suffer from inaccuracy. Overall, the 10950 gold is well worth it and cheaper than the IS-3A, for example which is quite the controversial tank. Don't fight multiple tanks, don't get flanked, stay at the front lines and use the powerful armor and gun to your advantage and you'll survive and hopefully make a helpful amount of credits.
