The AT-L Artillery Tractor was a Soviet-designed tracked vehicle used to tow artillery pieces during World War II. It was based on the chassis of the T-20 Komsomolets armored tractor, but had a larger and more powerful engine, a wider track gauge, and a longer and wider hull. The AT-L could carry a crew of six and tow a load of up to 4.5 tons. It was equipped with a 7.62 mm DT machine gun for self-defense and had a maximum speed of 35 km/h. The AT-L was produced from 1940 to 1942 and saw service in various fronts of the war, especially in the early stages of the German invasion of the Soviet Union. It was later replaced by more advanced and reliable models, such as the STZ-5 and the Ya-12.
