Improving the mobility of infantry support guns by mounting them on a wheeled or tracked chassis was a concept that arose following the end of the First World War. The Germans developed the most successful implementation of this concept with the series of vehicles known as Sturmgeschütz (assault gun). This also created a misconception that they were the only ones who tried to develop such a vehicle, however, other armies in Europe also showed an interest. Economical and industrial limitations often meant that not many of these projects went beyond a simple proposal. Poland, however, was one of the few nations that actually put some resources and time into developing these vehicles, albeit in limited scope.
