One thing which i have wondered about is how the capture or destruction of the KV-1 production plant would have influenced the war.

Despite the T-34 taking the spotlight, the KV-1 was actually the tank which gave the Germans a massive headache in 1941.
I'd like to look at two possible scenarios:

1. KV-1 tank factory captured and pressed into service to strengthen Italian and Romanians tank forces.
Possibly KV-1 as fortifications later in the war.

2. KV-1 tank factory destroyed prior to being moved to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelyabinsk_Tractor_Plant

Thoughts and Ideas? Would the capture or destruction delay the introduction of the Tiger I tank?
