In April 1942 several Soviet design bureaus were ordered to design an armoured assault gun mounting 122mm or greater weapon. The most successful design to emerge from this process came from the Uralsky Machine-Building factory, designated the U-35. This design was to go on to become the SU-122, and it was fully adopted, after extensive trials, in December 1942.
The SU-122 is a direct-fire gun that follows closely behind the advance to knock out enemy guns, though it can also be employed as a barrage weapon and can double as an effective tank-killer.

Includes four Resin and metal SU-122 tanks, one plastic Tank Commander sprue, one Decal sheet and one Unit Card.
