With the URal 4320 truck announced fro Trumpeter, I wonder if this truck was or is used as prime mover for the 122mm D-30 and other artillery?

A simple google search shows photos of them in Iraqi service towing an M46 130mm gun, and in Russian service with what look to me like a D30

It can be used to tow the MT-12 100mm gun :

Even though it appeared in 1970, I guess the MT-12 is still in use...
