T-22 Tank Grotte

Tank Grotte was an early Soviet experimental tank project associated with the German engineer Eduard Grotte. It explored a complex armored vehicle with ambitious arrangements, but did not become a practical production type. The secure historical subject is the interwar experimental Grotte effort, not an operational Soviet medium-tank class. The prototype is more commonly identified as TG or Tank Grotte. It explored a complex multi-level armament arrangement during the early 1930s, but cost and mechanical complexity prevented adoption. The effort also reflects the Soviet Union’s use of foreign engineering expertise while building its domestic armored-vehicle industry during the interwar period.
