 <!-- ''In the description, the first part should be about the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle, as well as its key features. In the second part, tell the reader about the ground vehicle in the game. Insert a screenshot of the vehicle, so that if the novice player does not remember the vehicle by name, he will immediately understand what kind of vehicle the article is talking about.'' -->
-The '''ZIS-12 (94-KM)''' is the first and only variant of the ZIS-12-based self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle 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.

-The 94-KM is an improvement over the [[GAZ-MM (72-K)]] with its dual-mounted 25 mm cannons, increasing its rate of fire and area of saturation for anti-aircraft duties.
