95 new SU-122 based on T-54 had D-49 (essentially the same gun as D-25T) and were in service from 1955 on (end date 1970 or earlier - vehicles were disarmed and used as MTP-3 and other auxiliary machines).

Thank you. That is exactly what I suspected. There was no modernization of the older SU-122's or their original M30 L22 gun. The only upgrade was in 1955 with the new T-54 based machines. The SU-122-54's are now on the list and new Icons have been created for them. NO change to the older M30 based units
