We continue to refine the “Big Ensk” map prototype. In its current state (and compared to the well-known and compact Ensk map), its key features are its much larger size (1,000×1,000 meters versus 600×600 meters) and the addition of a whole new direction in the countryside zone. The teams’ spawn points have been spread apart, making shoot-outs at the start less likely and flanking maneuvers safer.

The possibility of using an electromechanical transmission was considered. At the end of 1947, the command put forward new requirements for the SPG, and this project did not receive further development.
