Book Synopsis Russian Armour and Fighting Vehicles by : Craig Allen
Download or read book Russian Armour and Fighting Vehicles written by Craig Allen and published by Military Vehicles and Artiller. This book was released on 2024-02-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the various designs of tanks and armored fighting vehicles in current use in the war in Ukraine. These include original Soviet equipment like the T-72 and T-80 plus newer designs such as the T-90. Russia has large stocks of armor as a legacy of the Soviet Union. However, many are older modes stored in poor conditions. The tank design team at state manufacturers Uralvagonzavod have produced modern designs such as the T-14 Armata, however, the forces deployed in Ukraine still rely heavily on older equipments such as the T-72B3. The conflict has also exposed the vulnerability of Russian armor to NATO-supplied anti-tank weapons, from countries including the UK. This has led to heavy losses while many armored vehicles have simply been abandoned due to poor morale and logistics.
Book Synopsis Russia MRAPs, Armored Cars, Armored Personnel Carriers & Armored Assault Vehicles by : Alexandre Zanfirov
Download or read book Russia MRAPs, Armored Cars, Armored Personnel Carriers & Armored Assault Vehicles written by Alexandre Zanfirov and published by . This book was released on 2021-03 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1 March 2021 This book is intended as a primer with summary specifications for the various armored vehicles in the present-day Russian military. For more complete specifications of these vehicles, I recommend the TRADOC Worldwide Equipment Guide (WEG). Unfortunately, the WEG is only available online, so we downloaded (most) of the information and publish an extract of the Russian vehicles only (including tanks) as a separate title (search "russia ground combat vehicles"). That book is available on Amazon.com. Note that the pictures on the cover are a graphical Table of Contents. The page number is written before the vehicle name. If you have ideas for future titles, let me know and I will see how much info is out there and try and publish suggested titles. Thank you for your continued support. 4th Watch publishing is a SDVOSB. Alexandre Zanfirov, 1 March 2021

Excerpt: The BRDM-2 (Boyevaya Razvedyvatelnaya Dozornaya Mashina,, literally "Combat Reconnaissance/Patrol Vehicle" ) is an amphibious armoured patrol car used by Russia and the former Soviet Union. It was also known under designations BTR-40PB, BTR-40P-2 and GAZ 41-08. This vehicle, like many other Soviet designs, has been exported extensively and is in use in at least 38 countries. It was intended to replace the earlier BRDM-1 with a vehicle that had improved amphibious capabilities and better armament. After few years of exploitation of BRDM-1 by the Soviet Army its limitations and drawbacks became obvious. The vehicle had no turret and to operate the armament the gunner had to open a hatch and expose himself to enemy fire. The vehicle wasn't fitted with an NBC protection system, and had no night vision equipment by default. The vehicle also didn't have any kind of special sights which undermined its usability as a reconnaissance vehicle. These drawbacks encouraged the design team to create a new vehicle which would suit modern battlefield. Swimming Polish BRDM-2 armoured...

Book Synopsis Russian Armour in the Second World War by : Michael Green
Download or read book Russian Armour in the Second World War written by Michael Green and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2013-09-19 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This WWII pictorial history of Russia’s tanks and armored fighting vehicles provides a vivid look at the Eastern Front through rare wartime photographs. When Hitler’s armies advanced into Russia, it was Stalin’s tanks and armored fighting vehicles that finally pushed them back from the outskirts of Moscow. At the Battle of Kursk in the summer of 1943, the Soviet tanks and AFVs proved their effectiveness by defeating the cream of the Panzertruppen. From that point on, the tanks and armored fighting vehicles of the Red Army continued their offensive operations until they victoriously entered Berlin in April and May of 1945. In this fascinating pictorial history, military expert Michael Green provides historical images of the full range of Russian armor as well as exterior and interior color photos of preserved and restored tanks and AFVs from the period. This latest book in the Images of War series brings to life the Red Army’s efforts to repel Hitler's Panzer Armies.
Book Synopsis Armored Units of the Russian Civil War by : David Bullock
Download or read book Armored Units of the Russian Civil War written by David Bullock and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02-20 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 1920 the Red Army of Russia fielded an overwhelming array of armored cars, armored trains and tank detachments. These armored units played an important part in consolidating the newly won Bolshevik empire in the early 1920s; as a consequence of the fact that railways were the strategic arteries that essentially controlled Russia, armored trains have never played such a significant role in military history as they did in the Russian Civil War. This title details the management, construction, repair, personnel, training and combat of the Red Army's armored units on all fronts, including such famous vehicles as Trotsky's armored train.

Book Synopsis The Russian Way of War by : Lester W. Grau
Download or read book The Russian Way of War written by Lester W. Grau and published by Mentor Military. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Force Structure, Tactics, and Modernization of the Russian Ground Forces The mighty Soviet Army is no more. The feckless Russian Army that stumbled into Chechnya is no more. Today's Russian Army is modern, better manned, better equipped and designed for maneuver combat under nuclear-threatened conditions. This is your source for the tactics, equipment, force structure and theoretical underpinnings of a major Eurasian power. Here's what the experts are saying: "A superb baseline study for understanding how and why the modern Russian Army functions as it does. Essential for specialist and generalist alike." -Colonel (Ret) David M. Glantz, foremost Western author on the Soviet Union in World War II and Editor of The Journal of Slavic Military Studies. "Congratulations to Les Grau and Chuck Bartles on filling a gap which has yawned steadily wider since the end of the USSR. Their book addresses evolving Russian views on war, including the blurring of its nature and levels, and the consequent Russian approaches to the Ground Forces' force structuring, manning, equipping, and tactics. Confidence is conferred on the validity of their arguments and conclusions by copious footnoting, mostly from an impressive array of primary sources. It is this firm grounding in Russian military writings, coupled with the authors' understanding of war and the Russian way of thinking about it, that imparts such an authoritative tone to this impressive work." -Charles Dick, former Director of the Combat Studies Research Centre, Senior Fellow at the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom, author of the 1991 British Army Field Manual, Volume 2, A Treatise on Soviet Operational Art and author of From Victory to Stalemate The Western Front, Summer 1944 and From Defeat to Victory, The Eastern Front, Summer 1944. "Dr. Lester Grau's and Chuck Bartles' professional research on the Russian Armed Forces is widely read throughout the world and especially in Russia. Russia's Armed Forces have changed much since the large-scale reforms of 2008, which brought the Russian Army to the level of the world's other leading armies. The speed of reform combined with limited information about their core mechanisms represented a difficult challenge to the authors. They have done a great job and created a book which could be called an encyclopedia of the modern armed forces of Russia. They used their wisdom and talents to explore vital elements of the Russian military machine: the system of recruitment and training, structure of units of different levels, methods and tactics in defense and offence and even such little-known fields as the Arctic forces and the latest Russian combat robotics." -Dr. Vadim Kozyulin, Professor of Military Science and Project Director, Project on Asian Security, Emerging Technologies and Global Security Project PIR Center, Moscow. "Probably the best book on the Russian Armed Forces published in North America during the past ten years. A must read for all analysts and professionals following Russian affairs. A reliable account of the strong and weak aspects of the Russian Army. Provides the first look on what the Russian Ministry of Defense learned from best Western practices and then applied them on Russian soil." -Ruslan Pukhov, Director of the Moscow-based Centre for the Analysis of Strategies and Technologies (CAST) and member of the Public Council of the Russian Federation Ministry of Defense. Author of Brothers Armed: Military Aspects of the Crisis in Ukraine, Russia's New Army, and The Tanks of August.
Book Synopsis Soviet Armoured Cars 1936–45 by : Jamie Prenatt
Download or read book Soviet Armoured Cars 1936–45 written by Jamie Prenatt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The armoured car has an important place in the early history of Soviet armoured fighting vehicles (AFVs) – they were the most important AFV during the Russian Civil War and figured prominently in the mechanization of the Red Army that began in late 1929. The 1930s saw the development and production of a wide variety of armoured cars, which were used extensively in Soviet conflicts from then on. They saw service in the Spanish Civil War, in the 1939 Manchurian conflict with Japan, and in the occupation of the Baltic states and the invasion of Poland and Finland. Although many of its armoured cars were lost in the early months following the German invasion in June 1941, Russia continued with its armoured car development program, and the final model, the BA-64, was accepted for service in 1942 with over 9,000 built before production ended in 1946. This detailed book provides a survey of Russian armoured cars from 1936 to 1945, focusing on the history, design, and specifications of the wheeled armoured cars that entered series production, including the rail variants and tracked BA-30. Packed with photographs, cross-sections, and stunning battleplates, this is a comprehensive guide to some of the Red Army's fastest AFVs.
