Bolt Action Soviet Komsomolets Armoured Artillery Tractor
The Komsomolets armoured tractor was a compact yet vital vehicle for the Red Army, designed to tow light artillery pieces and transport their crews under fire. Produced between 1937 and 1941, it combined modest armour with reliable mobility, giving Soviet gunners the ability to reposition quickly and operate closer to the front lines. Though lightly armed with a single machine gun, its role as an artillery prime mover made it indispensable during the early years of World War II.
