Vehicle description

Wargaming Tankopedia

After the end of World War II, the Polish Army operated Soviet self-propelled guns. Licensed production of T-34 and T-54 started in the 1950s and a production base for independent production of armored vehicles was established. The anti-tank SPG named SDP 57 Gowika was designed to replace the obsolete Soviet SU-100 and ISU-122. The project was deemed a success, but the prototype was abandoned in favor of a more promising design.
