'' Russian Voroshilovets Tractor ''
The Voroshilovets Tractor was the heaviest of the Russian tracked artillery tractors with 1123 produced from 1939 to 1942 initially at the KhPZ plant in Kharkov and later at the STZ tractor plant in Stalingrad.
It had a crew of two plus seating for a 16 man gun crew or 3 tonnes of cargo in the rear cargo bed and was powered initially by the BD-2 400hp 12 cylinder diesel engine and later by the V-2V 375hp 12 cylinder diesel engineas used in the T-34.
With a combat weight of 15.5 tons and a towing capacity of 22 ton the Voroshilovets was used as the prime mover for heavy artillery such as the B-4 203mm tracked howitzer (Trumpeter kit #02307) and the Br-5 280mm tracked heavy mortar.
A few captured Voroshilovets Tractors were used by the German Wehrmacht but due to the small numbers produced these were a fairly rare sight.
