Schunkow, Victor Armored Forces of Russia and the Siviet Union

Tanks and Armored Vehicles

This is a remarkably comprehensive illustrated history of the Soviet and Russian tank industry. The reader will become familiar with virtually every tank and armored vehicle used from World War I to the present day, including some obscure prototypes. Tank enthusiasts will gain a thorough understanding of the technical details and deployment of these vehicles in the Russian Civil War, World War II, the Cold War, and the conflict with Ukraine in the 21st century. The inclusion of the advanced T-14 Armata brings this book up to date. In addition to hundreds of historical photographs (both black and white and color), each vehicle entry features a large color profile of the type. This book is a valuable reference for historians, modelers, and wargamers alike.
