Soviet ZiS Heavy Trucks
Picture of ZiS trucks
Current:
ZiS Truck....unit 45....carry 32...size 4...4x2.........spd 15
ZiS Truck ...unit 466...carry 24...size 4...4x2.........spd 12
ZiS 42.........unit 301...carry 18...size 3...Halftrack...spd 18
The three ZiS vehicles have an identical body, only the drivetrain and speed should be different (like the GAZ trucks but the ZiS are larger).

Additional Heavy Truck
The YaG-6 Heavy Truck may make a useful addition to the Soviet OOB because it would give the Soviets a truck that could carry about 32 men.
To avoid ‘carry 32’ OOB problems with unit 45, perhaps it’s possible to change unit 45 to a YaG-6, then create a new ZiS-5 with carry 24?
YaG-6 Heavy truck 5 ton
Made: 8,075
Available: 1932
Drive: 4x2
Size: 256 x 98 inches (size 5)
Speed: 40Kmh
