The SU-100M1 is a Soviet tier 7 tank destroyer.
Developed in 1944 at the Uralmash heavy machinery plant, this vehicle was based on the T-34-85 tank. Its engine compartment was placed in the front of the hull, while the fighting compartment was located in the rear, which provided additional protection for the crew and considerably reduced the under armor hull volume. Although the SU-100M1 project was never manufactured, it was an intermittent stage in the development of the SU-100 and SU-101, both of which existed in reality.
With its small silhouette, good mobility, and great camouflage for its tier, this tank could be one of the best sniper TD's of its tier. Though most players would go with the derp gun of the SU-152, the SU-100M1 would surprise you with its survivability even in close to mid range fights. Its armor can bounce shots from tanks even up to tier 9 if angled correctly as its frontal armor is very sloped. Its structure is very similar to the Jagdpanther II or the Ferdinand, thus making its side and most especially rear armor very low, so always keep this tank facing front. Once fully upgraded, the SU-100M1 can relocate quickly, shoot higher tiers' weak spots and can support fights very quickly.
The SU-100M1 leads to the SU-101.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Fast, with a low profile
- Respectable aim and reload speed
- Frontal hull armor is mostly reliable against lower tiers
- Very strong casemate & gun mantlet armor, capable of deflecting even high tier guns head-on
- Cheap ammunition with decent penetration on top gun
Cons:
- Low alpha, unfortunately many other tier 7 TDs edge this tank out in both damage and fire rate
- Mediocre accuracy, a common trait of its lineage
- Bad traverse, prone to flanking
- Subpar gun depression of only four degrees
- Prone to catching fire from frontal hits
Performance
The SU-100M1 plays like a turret-less T-44 in many, many ways and is quick enough to wolf-pack with mediums. Its gun has average penetration for a Tier 7 Tank Destroyer, but the tank's not maneuverable enough to flank and lacks accuracy to reliably hit the opponent's weak points. The gun does not disperse much even while moving, so it can take some shots on the move. The armor can bounce some shots, primarily from opponents below your tier, but with proper cover you can bounce even Tier 8 shots. Play as a second line support and when going forwards you maybe fast, but be sure to have allies by your side or a hard cover nearby as this tank has sluggish traverse speed and this tank has low view range. Be careful facing high caliber guns as hits to the frontal armor or lower plate, the engine can be damage or ignite. Fire extinguisher is a must for this tank.
Early Research
- The V-2-34M Engine and 9RM Radio carry over from the SU-100.
- Research the 100 mm LB-1C Gun.
- Finally, research the SU-100M1B Suspension.

Historical Accuracy Errata
*The model is almost entirely incorrect (see historical gallery) Differences between the in game model and the blueprints include (but are not limited to): cupola on wrong side, missing gunner, loader and drivers hatches, tapered superstructure, too elongated hull cheeks
- Frontal hull armour was only 90mm, not 140mm. Superstructure armour was also very likely 90mm.
- Its only intended main armament is the D-10S. The LB-1 configuration is fake.
- Top speed was only 47.5 km/h, not 54.
- Ammunition loadout consisted of 39 rounds, not 44.
- Weight of the vehicle was 32.6 tons, not 31.9.
