?The SU-85B is a [[USSR|Soviet]] tier 4 [[Tank Destroyers|tank destroyer]] that is very similar to the [[SU-76]] in characteristics, except that it mounts a larger [[Gun|gun]]. Many players find that this [[Tank Destroyers|tank destroyer]] can double as a scout. Though not the fastest, it still proves effective. The SU-85B is able to perform reconnaissance with intent to survive, unlike others that are often times destroyed. Should you see someone noteworthy, many players chose to remain hidden and keep the target marked for attack. With a top speed of 43 km/h) , and a view range of 410m, it has the ability to fire over long ranges and get away faster than most tanks in its tier, making it a great tank for sniping or hit and run tactics. Either way, should you choose to scout or attack, the [[Ammo|AP]] round is able to make quick work to low-tier tanks, and [[Gun|damage]] some larger ones. The SU-85B is able to mount the D-5S 85-A and LB-2S [[Gun|guns]], shooting 85mm [[Ammo|rounds]] at 15 RPM. The 85B also has a camouflage bonus. All this comes at the cost of HP and weak armor, meaning it can not really hold up to a lot of punishment. +

?The SU-85B (really the GAZ-74b), was a prototype based on the SU-76. The second variant (GAZ-74b), was similar to the SU-IT-76, recommended by NII-13. The vehicle had a low silhouette, was well-armored (45mm glacis plate) with sloped armor, and was armed with the 76 mm S-1 Gun (the same gun was mounted on the serially produced SU-76i). The new tank killer was to receive the GMC-71 diesel engine.+

?The GAZ-74b was built, underwent factory testing, and on the whole approved by military personnel. Under the designation SU-76-I (not to be mistaken for SU-76i) or SU-74, it was subjected to government tests. However, in 1943, the arming of these vehicles with the 76 mm gun with a long barrel (41-calibres) was already considered inadequate for combat with heavy German tanks. The cost significantly exceeded the that of the SU-76, which was already being mass produced. Therefore, the fate of the GAZ-74b was sealed.+
