Didn't see this before.. something new? Is it just a cargo tractor, or did it carry any weapons system?

It was an artillery prime mover. It pulled the gun, along with the crew and ammo for it.

I believe it was also used with a 'bm-24', can't think of its proper designation right now...
As for artillery tractor, a M-46 would be nice to put behind it. (hint hint Trumpeter)

I believe the BM-24 version was used in the Hungrian revolution, just can't seem to find the picture. It had the white stripe down the middle. I hope Trumpeter does that version.
