Artilleriyskiy Tyagach Tyazholiy, or AT-T (Russian: Артиллерийский Тягач, Тяжёлый (АТ-Т), meaning "heavy artillery tractor") was a Soviet Cold War-era artillery tractor. The AT-T is based on the chassis and drive system from the T-54 tank. However, the tub has been rotated 180 degrees[clarification needed], with the engine, clutch, gearbox, steering gear and the drive wheels located at the front of the vehicle. The crew cabin is also located in the front part of the vehicle, and is from the ZIS-150 and ZIL-164 trucks.
