In spite of the complexity of the task the construction bureau of the factory managed to cope with the new design and the new battle machine (object 104 in the factory numeration) reached the factory testing stage which lasted for a year. Additional weapons were a 45 mm cannon, a high-calibre AA machine gun and a 20 mm tank cannon. Depending on the task of the battle machine, a 107 mm cannon, a 122 mm howitzer or 152 mm howitzer could be mounted.

In April 1937, Armour Command of the Red Army sent the military operational requirements to Factory #184, these were the requirements for the development of 'an armoured machine of a new type' with a maximum mass of 50 tons, protected by at least 60 mm of armour and the option to install different weapon types. This is what the ST-1 was about - the first and the only model of a walking tank. The first world war, which was also called 'the trench war', showed an inefficiency in the usual infantry breakthrough and required the creation of an absolutely new type of ground vehicle - something that could cross destroyed roads and ground torn apart from explosions.
