The SU-76 – Samokhodnaya Ustanovka 76 – was a Soviet light self-propelled gun used during and after World War II. The SU-76 was based on a lengthened version of the T-70 light tank chassis and armed with the 76 mm divisional gun M1942 (ZiS-3). Its quite simple construction and multipurpose combat role made it the second most produced Soviet armoured fighting vehicle of World War II, after the T-34 medium tank. The SU-76M was the main production model. Photographed at The Tank Museum in Bovington, England 2017.
