    Can anyone suply basic mesurments for 152,4 mm ammo for howitzer ML-20S mounted in this wheicle?

    I need dimensions for both granade and cartridge.

    I intend to build the interior on my model.

    Drawings for interior of ISU-152 that might come useful for modelers:

    Sorry, can't help you,
    but those are some nice interior pictures! It looks very roomy, especially for a Russian SPG

    I alread got them on our local modeling forum. Friend posted scans from Yugoslav manual for soviet ML-20 towed howitzer model 1937 (same gun but in normal towed version).
    Information and drawings are for BR-540 (tracer AP), OF-540 (HE) and G-530 (bunker buster) shells. Interestingly wheights of shells are all 40kg+ (only shell, without propellant charge and it's casing)
