Fotogalerie na SU-100, The SU-100 je stíhač tanků na základně T-34 se 100 mm kusem D-10S v přední nástavbě.
Sověti, kteří již experimentovali s konstrukcí samořiděných kanónů, a to jak na základě nákladních vozidel, tak tanků, vyrobili na počátku války nějaký Komsomoletz na základě 57mm děla Zis-2 namontovaného na podvozku traktoru. V roce 1943 vyrobili SU-85 a na konci roku 1944 SU-100, který kombinoval silné dělo na moderním podvozku poskytujícím plný pancíř. Měl tu výhodu, že byl relativně levný na výrobu a měl kanón o něco silnější než ten, který vybavoval tank, ze kterého se vysmíval, což Rusům poskytlo velkou flexibilitu.

Tá SU-100 (Samokhodnaya Ustanovka-100) was a Soviet Samohybné protitankové dělo developed in 1944. Based on the successful T-34-85 tank chassis, it was designed to counter the superior armor of late-war German heavy tanks, such as the Panther and Tiger I. It quickly earned a reputation as one of the most formidable tank killers on the Eastern Front.
Key Features and Design
- Hlavní výzbroj: The vehicle’s power came from the 100 mm D-10S anti-tank gun, a potent weapon capable of penetrating the frontal armor of most German tanks at combat ranges. This gun was later used on the post-war T-54/T-55 main battle tanks.
- Podvozek: It utilized the reliable and mobile chassis of the T-34 medium tank, retaining good off-road mobility.
- Design Type: It employed a casemate (turretless) superstructure, which provided a lower profile and allowed for mounting a much larger gun than the standard T-34 turret could accommodate. However, this design limited the gun’s traverse to a narrow arc ($\pm 8^{\circ}$).
- Brnění: The frontal armor of the casemate was significantly upgraded from its predecessor (the SU-85) to 75 mm at a 55-degree slope, giving it an effective thickness superior to many German tank guns.
- Crew: Operated by a crew of four (Commander/Radio Operator, Gunner, Loader, Driver).
Operational Role in WWII
The SU-100 entered service in late 1944 and saw extensive combat during the final year of the war, particularly in massive engagements:
- Tank Killer: Its primary role was as a mobile anti-tank asset attached to tank and motorized corps, intended to ambush and destroy heavy German armor at long ranges.
- Major Engagements: It was notably used in large numbers during the final Soviet offensives, including the heavy fighting in Hungary (e.g., the Battle of Lake Balaton) in March 1945.
- Weakness: The design lacked any secondary machine gun, making it vulnerable to close-range infantry attacks and necessitating infantry support during urban combat, such as the Battle of Berlin.
