The ZIS-12 (94-KM) is the first and only variant of the ZIS-12-based self-propelled anti-aircraft gun family. The ZIS-12 is an extended long wheelbase modification of the ZIS-5, a 4x2 Soviet truck manufactured by the Moscow ZIS factory from 1932 to 1948. During World War II, two 25 mm 72-K autocannons in a twin configuration were installed on the back of the ZIS-12 to provide deterrence against enemy aircraft for ground units.
Introduced in Update 1.57 "Battle March", the ZIS-12 (94-KM) plays similarly to the GAZ-MM (72-K). While they are not based on the same platform, their roles in battle are similar. The twin 25 mm 72-K autocannons provide a high rate of fire against enemy aircraft. Armour-piercing ammunition belts are also available to players, allowing them to engage lightly armoured targets. Although it is capable of carrying a large pool of ammunition to battles, players should avoid wasting ammunition in continuous firing as the high rate of fire quickly depletes the available ammunition.
