Notes | The ISU-122 (Istrebitelnaja Samokhodnaya Ustanovka) was virtually the same vehicle as the ISU-152, both vehicles were built on the same chassis but sported different guns. This came about due to the lack of available 152mm ML-20S, so vehicles were adapted to mount the 122mm A-19S howitzer. It was used as both a tank destroyer and heavy assault gun and served in independent heavy artillery regiments. |
