ML-20

corps gun-howitzer

A versatile heavy gun-howitzer used at corps and army level for long-range bombardment and direct assault fire alike, the ML-20 was powerful enough that its barrel was adapted almost unchanged for the SU-152 and ISU-152 self-propelled guns, becoming the terror weapon Soviet troops nicknamed 'Zveroboy'.
