The SU-85B is a Tier IV Soviet Tank Destroyer.

One of the open-topped Soviet tank destroyers, it is very similar to the SU-76M in characteristics, except that it mounts a larger gun and has a greatly increased gun arc. Should your peers scout a noteworthy target, the AP round is able to make quick work of low-tier tanks, and damage some larger ones. The SU-85B is able to mount the D-5S 85-A and LB-2S guns, shooting 85mm rounds at a relatively high RPM. As a TD, the 85B also has a camouflage bonus. All this comes at the cost of HP and weak armor, meaning it can not really hold up to a lot of punishment. Also, even though the gun arc is slightly better than the SU-76's, the gun elevation and depression is inferior to its predecessor, making it especially vulnerable on hilly terrain.
