Looks like there is a barrel behind the smoke.

It looks like Soviet 122 H 09-30 or 22 H 10-30 Howitzer.

Looks like a Russian 122mm How but its unsual in that it appears to have solid wheels and rubber tyres.

[Tankerace]

Don't know why, but that carriage looks kinda like a US 105mm style.

[Belisarius]

Looks a lot like a Russian 122mm howitzer. Early war is my guess.

Chris H, I've seen quite a number of photos of russian artillery with exactly that wheel assembly, so rubber tyres were probably not that uncommon.

[Brady]

It is, 152mm Howitzer Model 1909/30.

[Tankerace]

Oh pfft, off by a measily 30mm. [:D]

[Belisarius]

Looks darn tiny for being a 152mm howitzer, IMO. And no split carriage? Or are they perhaps 'shooting on the fly'? But I digress. [8D]
