2S1 Gvozdika 122-mm Self-propelled Howitzer

Please visit my channel @ The 2S1 Gvozdika, (Russian: 2С1 «Гвоздика», ’Carnation’); is a Soviet 122-mm self-propelled howitzer that resembles the PT-76 but is essentially a lengthened version of the MT-LB APC, mounting the 2A18 howitzer. “2S1“ is its GRAU designation. An alternative Russian designation is SAU-122 but in the Russian Army it is commonly known as Gvozdika. The 2S1 is fully amphibious with very little preparation, and once afloat is propelled by its tracks.
