The
SU-85
(
Samohodnaya ustanovka
85) was a
Soviet
self-propelled gun used during
World War II
, based on the chassis of the
T-34
medium tank. Earlier Soviet self-propelled guns were meant to serve as either
assault guns
, such as the
SU-122
, or as
tank destroyers
; the SU-85 fell into the latter category. The designation "85" means the bore of the vehicle's armament, the 85 mm
D-5S
gun.
The SU-85 entered combat in August 1943. It saw active service across the
Eastern Front
until the end of the war. Though a capable weapon, it was found that its 85 mm weapon was not adequate to penetrate the armour of the larger German armoured fighting vehicles.
It was replaced by the SU-100.
The SU-85 was withdrawn from Soviet service soon after the war, and was exported to many Soviet client states in Europe and elsewhere. Some SU-85s were converted to use as command and recovery vehicles.
Countries such as
North Korea
and
Vietnam
kept it in service for many years
