The PPG tankette (Russian: Подвижное пулемётное гнездо Podvizhnoye pulemyotnoye gnezdo literally mobile machine-gun nest) also known by the prototype name Obiekt 217 was a Soviet tankette produced for fighting in Finland. This vehicle never saw combat.Soviet infantry took huge losses attacking Finnish fortifications in the Winter War. To compensate they sometimes assaulted them in armoured sledges towed by tanks.
