"Mother like she belches shell;
Glorious it flies, and well,
As, with a hissing screaming squall,
A roaring furnace, giving all,
she sears a path for the infantry….”"
- – leksandr Tvardovskiy, from the poem “Vasily Tyorkin” 1943
The 2S1 Gvozdika or "Carnation" in English, is a self-propelled Howitzer, fielded by the Soviet army. Unlike traditional heavy artillery pieces, the 2S1 uses the hull of an APC as it's chassis (the MT-LB), affording it amphibious capabilities. It is also fully sealed and comes with an array of sophisticated optics, allowing it to operate in NBC or any other hazardous environment without risk to the crew. The vehicle is used by a variety of former-Soviet states and it's Communist allies.
The vehicle uses a 122mm howitzer as it's main gun, with a standard maximum range of 15.3 kilometers. It however, does not come with a turret-mounted or co-axial machine gun, making it vulnerable in close combat with infantry.
