Bolt Action - SU-76M Assault Gun

This small but powerful self propelled gun was produced in vast quantities by the Soviets in WW2. It used a tried and tested tank chassis with the excellent 76mm gun howitzer, enabling either high explosive bombardment or direct fire with armour piercing shells.

Either way it was a tough vehicle to fight against as it was reliable and a small target, with a big punch.

It was not popular with the crews however, perhaps because it was cramped, cold and had very thin armour..Its crew gave it the nickname "Bitch"
