Default RE: SU-76(r) ???????????

Rommel captured a number of these at Tobruk and mounted his 47mm AT guns on them. They made a VERY good tank killer. Very fast, very small target and easy to hide behind a bush, shoot and scoot. The Boys AT gun fired thru the extension in front, but the
Germans mounted the PAK on top where it had good trraverse and better field of fire. I had an American Ford version T-16 but with my AT gun also firing from the bow like a STU or SU-85. They are real fun track to drive and easy to maintain. I could change a track block or adjust tension alone with no problems.
