Remember, the Soviets were famous for never throwing anything away. It's been said that they had thousands of T-34s, along with JS-IIs and -IIIs, in storage "East of the Urals" in war reserve. In T2K some of that stuff might find its way to Central Europe. Ditto for tanks like the T-44 and the early T-54, along with APCs like the BTR-40, -50, and -152. ISTR on the web somewhere that the last Russian exercise in which JS-IIs took part was in 1995, and no, this wasn't a parade or WW II victory event, it was a real exercise.
