The ZIL-157 is a general purpose 2 12-ton 6x6 truck, produced in post-World War II Soviet Union. The ZIL-157 was the standard Soviet truck until it was replaced by the ZIL-131 and Ural-375 series that became the standard Soviet army trucks alongside the GAZ-66. The People's Liberation Army also produced the CA-30, a copy of the ZIL-157.
