All other characteristics of the tanks are the same.
* All tanks also have a machine gun for self defense.
** 85 mm gun without a turret with a limited traverse of +/-15 degrees.
Never heard of an SPG called the SU-34 before. What else can you tell about it?
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty much all that's known. It would have an 85 mm gun but nothing else was decided, not even the chassis.
