An experimental Soviet SPG SU-76D will be an award in the upcoming crafting event in War Thunder!
SU-76D,SPG,USSR. rank II, Premium
Pros
- Good gun
- Low profile
- Premium
Cons
- Low protection
In the Soviet Union in the midst of the war, design teams from various industrial enterprises continued to work on new types of weapons. At the Gorky Automobile Plant, an initiative group of designers proposed a light tank destroyer design with a closed cabin and a diesel engine. In one of the iterations, the project turned to a vehicle with a low silhouette and an inclined arrangement of armor plates. It was assumed that the vehicle would be armed with 76 or 57mm guns. It was planned to install the modified hull carriage of the T-70 light tank as a chassis on the vehicle. The issue with a power plant remained unsolved though. There were two options: either using American-built GMC-71 diesel engines, which the Soviet Union received with lend-lease, or starting production on a domestic engine, similar to the American one.
The 76mm cannon, planned to be installed on the SPG, was no longer enough to destroy the latest models of German armored vehicles by the time the prototype was tested. This, as well as problems with fine-tuning of the domestic engine, became the reason for the closure of the SU-76D (D for "diesel") project. The second vehicle from this designer team, the SU-57B SPG, is already known by War Thunder tankers and has proven itself quite well in battles. We decided to add her older sister to the game!
SU-76D is a premium low-rank tank destroyer that will be one of the prizes of the new crafting event in War Thunder. The idea of creating this vehicle is very interesting and unusual for Soviet tank engineering - a light tank destroyer with the lowest profile possible, a closed cabin and an inclined arrangement of armor plates in the front projection. The same principles underlie the design of the excellent German Hetzer tank hunter, which, unlike Soviet vehicles, was produced in large numbers and proved to be effective in combat.
The SU-76D, built on the chassis of the T-70 light tank, has rather mediocre protection: even in the front projection, the self-propelled gun can be penetrated by almost all opponents, which is typical for most low-rank vehicles. However, the closed cabin will save the crew from machine guns of enemy anti-aircraft guns and aviation. The 76mm F-34 cannon has a range of shells from the early versions of T-34 tank with their versatile APHE rounds, and a barrel length useful for lower ranks, which ensures penetration in almost all enemies on the battlefield. The SU-76D's mobility is average - despite its lighter weight, the power of the diesel engine is not enough here, but on flat solid surfaces the self-propelled gun quickly develops a speed of up to 36 kph.
One of the main advantages of the SU-76D is its premium status, which will allow you to quickly research any Soviet armored vehicles of the I to III ranks and earn additional Silver Lions in battles.
The SU-76D is an interesting entry-level self-propelled gun with a good gun and premium status. You can get the new SPG in your hangar by completing simple tasks of the upcoming War Thunder April’s crafting event - stay tuned to our news!

What a joke xDDDDD
God, why? why put a trash tank in to those events?
Would you rather they put a really good vehicle that only a small amount of the playerbase would get? I'm sure you'd be among the ones talking about how OP it would be. This is fine, weird and quirky vehicles are far better fitting for events than being researchable in the tech tree. Especially if it was exprimental/prototype
Really hoping we can get *ALL* of the vehicles without having to grind myself into the ground. I have a job and would like to be able to get the things I want without having to pay money.
Another dang crafting event. Come on. The only people who like them are the people who play the market.
I'd rather not have crafting events, but if we do please make it a bit less confusing and time consuming. not all of us have enough time to spend on an event and the console accounts can't even make GJN out of it. I personally love these vehicles, but why the heck do you lock it behind these grindy, time-consuming and confusing crafting events?? I can't even spend some GE on it to get a few stars done. please make it easier to complete these events. the last one, I would have spent $50 on the BI
I just hope that I can get everything and is not "forced" to use the market. And that the grind wont be to "grindy" Time will tell I guess, but going of the last crafting event it is not looking to good. I just hope that this event will not be a disaster. I have faith in Gaijin (even tho that sounds stupid) I hope that they have listened to the last crafting events feedback. pleas let me get everything in the event. pleas do not make it a full time job type of a grind and listen to the feedback
Fun fact: Japan remains the only nation in the game that never recieved a single event ground vehicle...
Please don't tell me this is the April Fools event
i hope this craft event wont need me to play wt like a part time job. I like the idea of it but in the past they've never been the nicest tbh. Hopefully this will be a good one and try to help get rid of the negative connotation crafting events have had.
Oh god, please no....
