Historical Context

The B-4 203mm howitzer, nicknamed "Stalin's Sledgehammer", was one of the most powerful artillery pieces used by the Soviet Union during World War II. Developed in the 1930s, this gun, mounted on a tracked carriage, was designed to destroy enemy fortifications, bunkers, and defensive structures.

It was widely used in key battles, including the Siege of Leningrad, the Battle of Stalingrad, and the Berlin Offensive in 1945. Thanks to its ability to inflict massive damage, it was used to prepare the battlefield before Soviet infantry and armored assaults. Its psychological impact on enemy forces was also significant.

After the war, the B-4 remained in service in the Red Army and was even modernized in the early years of the Cold War.
