Bolt Action Soviet SU-122M Assault Gun
The SU-122M was a late-war Soviet assault gun developed as an improvement on the original SU-122, mounting a more powerful 122mm gun on the versatile T-34 chassis. Designed to provide direct fire support against fortified positions and enemy infantry, the SU-122M also had limited anti-tank capability, though it was intended primarily as an infantry support vehicle. Its heavy gun could devastate bunkers, trenches, and buildings, making it a valuable tool in the Red Army’s final offensives.
