The T-20 Komsomolets was a Soviet artillery tractor used by the Red Army during the Winter War and the Second World War. Developed at the Ordzhonikidze Moscow Plant no.37, the tractor was produced between 1936 and 1941 and over 4,000 units were built during that period.
The T-20 was intended to tow artillery-type weapons including the 45 mm anti-tank gun and the M1938 120 mm mortar. It also carried a small quantity of ammunition supplies and up to six crew members. The driver and the commander sit in the forward compartment armoured with a Degtyaryov machine gun. The rear compartment had room for the rest of the crew seated back-to-back. A canvas top could be raised in case of bad weather conditions.
During Operation Barbarossa some T-20s served as combat vehicles, however after 1941 they were deployed only as armoured tractors.
