What vehicle would be used to tow this gun in Russian/Soviet service? I cannot find any photos on the web with this is tow. What gun would the Serbs use?

TIA

Not sure if that's the same gun in the below picture but the towing vehicle could probably be used.

In Soviet army any 3-axle truck could to be used for towing of D30 howitzer:
- like KamAZ:


- Ural-4320:


or ZiL-131 like in post above (by the way - this ZiL-131 and D30 are from Ukrainean army).

Thanks guys. Great help. Though of course, I just sold my Ural 4230. I think I like Zil-131 approach. Didn't ICM just make one?

Would I be wrong assuming the MT-LB also could be a prime mover for the 122 D30?

Yes, of course, ICM have ZiL-131 among their models. For example:

As to MT-LB with D30 - yes, this "pair" also exists (sorry, no real photo):

Thanks for the pics HP

The M77 Oganj is very interesting. Don't mean to hijack this thread.
