Well, I can tell you one thing for certain....that automated translator makes a real mess of things. The best I can come up with from that is in 1944 a regiment of IS tanks was four companies totalling 21 tanks. Which, if this is true, would be five per company with one tank reserved for the regimental commander. Under wartime conditions I can see the need for company formations that could be expanded but it is difficult to believe than anyone would seriously call five tanks a "company" when it's a platoon everywhere else !

Maybe that's what is said.....and maybe that's for 1944, not post war and not applicable before 1944 IF that is truly the case.

As well, that first link doesn't work and the second doesn't go anywhere useful to the discussion.

What else do you have ?
