=================
Notes
– Not compatible with mods that change equipment_l_english.yml (some names will be different)
– Some tanks lack variants in real life, so I added closest modifications instead.
– USSR didn’t have own APC during WW II, so I added lend-lease models. BTR-40 was added to diversify tech tree.
– I decided not to replace IS-7 because it has more variants than KV-4.
– No descriptions for T-54 variants ingame, can’t fix this yet
– Icon of 155GH52-SP-T55 is bad, I know it, but there are only 3 photos of it in the internet.
155GH52-SP-T55
In the early 2000s, the Finnish company Patria Vammas Co tried to create SPG for Egypt. It is armed with howitzer 155 GH 52 APU which was created in 1998 by Tampella AB industries. As chassis they decided to use the old T-55 – as tank it wasn’t very good, but as a chassis for self-propelled guns – very even. Vehicle was equipped with external hydraulic outriggers, which are didn’t allow swinging after the shot, and remove the load from the brake. Egyptians were unable to produce these vehicles.
SU-122-54 (Object 600)- Self-propelled 122mm gun, based on the T-54A. Between 1955 and 1957, 77 vehicles were built. The SU-122-54 had a modified chassis, with small spaces between the first, second and fourth pair of wheels and a large gap between the third, similar to the T-62’s and a superstructure, built into the hull, housing the 122 mm D-49 L/48.4 gun. The vehicle carries 32 rounds. The secondary armament consisted of 2 KPVT heavy machine guns, one mounted as an AA machine gun near the commander’s hatch and the other mounted coaxially with the main gun.
The ZSU-57-2 (Object 500) is a Soviet self-propelled anti-aircraft gun (SPAAG), armed with 2 57 mm autocannons. ‘ZSU’ stands for Zenitnaya Samokhodnaya Ustanovka, meaning "anti-aircraft self-propelled mount". It was the first Soviet mass-produced tracked SPAAG. In the USSR it had the unofficial nickname "Sparka", meaning "pair", referring to the twin autocannon with which the vehicle is armed. Soviet engineers designed a vehicle that used a modified T-54 chassis, with four twin road wheels per side instead of five, and much thinner armour.
