HISTORY:

The 25 mm automatic air defence gun M1940 (72-K) (Russian: 25-мм автоматическая зенитная пушка образца 1940 года (72-К)), developed in 1939-1940, was a very common anti-aircraft weapon in the Soviet Union, leading to about 4,860 units produced. It occupies an intermediate position between large-calibre anti-aircraft machine guns of the ANC and the more powerful 37 mm anti-aircraft guns of the 61-K, this vehicle was designed for an Infantry Regiment level air defence. The gun was created at the beginning of 1940 at 8th Kalinin Artillery Plant under the guidance of its Chief Designer Mikhail Loginov.

To increase mobility in the second half of 1941, the 72-K anti-aircraft machine was installed on the chassis of the GAZ-MM. GAZ–MM is a truck with a maximum usable weight of 1.5 ton. It was produced at the end of the 1930s and at the first part of the 1940s by GAZ in the Soviet Union. It is a simplified version of the Ford Model AA’s Soviet licence version. At the beginning of World War II, more than 150,000 were in use by the Red Army. Tests showed the success of the design and the gun mount so it was put into serial production, called the GAZ MM (72-K). However, only 200 units were produced, as the manufacturer’s factory, Kolomna Locomotive Works, was evacuated. Subsequently, the GAZ MM (72-K) was no longer produced.

MODDER’S NOTES:

man, 6 hours in a row modding in unity, how the hell do i summarize my experience while making this…oh yeah, so my 2nd truck model, ig i improved? idk, but at least it’s more practice for trucks, oh yeah uh bigger gun, and very quick fire to reload ratio there’s a 0.05 sec difference in firerate and reload btw, but yeah, up next is a 37mm aa gun, so even more boom and probably a better he/fit shell, oh a question

QUESTION: should i make the zut-37 turret into an AA turret? like 4M, DShK, and now 72-K? or nah, just keep it with no variants?
