The SU-8 is a Soviet tier 5 self propelled gun. With this artillery, you can almost fire all the way across the map. Like most Soviet artilleries, the SU-8 fires shells with a high arc, so it can hit tanks behind cover more effectively than the its counterpart, the Hummel. It can also hide close in cover and be somewhat immune to counter-battery fire from low arcing shots. It is harder to hit moving targets with the SU-8 due to the significantly slow shell travel time. This artillery requires more patience than the earlier Soviet artilleries for its circle to close in. It does get the 152mm howitzer which packs of punch that the Soviet artilleries lack in the earlier tiers.

The SU-8 leads to the SU-14.

Historical Info

The SU-8 is another variant of the T-26, like its predecessor, the SU-26 and the SU-5.

In the interwar period, which created a number of projects of self-propelled light works, the SU-8 project was conceived. The project was a heavy self-propelled gun on the chassis of a heavy tank, the T-28. The original chassis was retained as well as the rear engine section. But all the mechanical parts were stripped out and completely changed. Lafetovaný was a 76.2 mm caliber cannon, which was protected by the folding armored sides. The sides in the fight would be unfolded and thus allow the cannon to rotate sideways.

Information regarding the prototype contain large uncertainties. Some sources claim that some were been built, and others that the project remained only on paper. Work on the project started in 1932 under the leadership of prof. FLChlystova in the research department of the artillery academy. The reason for cancellation of the project was the attenuation of the production T-28.
