The sloping, angular layout of the T-34 increased the effective armour thickness and also saw a larger proportion of shells deflected away than penetrated its armour. The introduction of the T-34 into action saw German tank design follow suit with similarly angled armour on the likes of the Panther and King Tiger.

This ensured a far smoother and faster production line than would have been the case with a completely new design. Another major advantage of the relatively simple design is the sheer number of tanks the Soviet tank factories could produce - by the summer of 1944 the Soviet war machine could produce more T-34\/85s in a month than the Germans had Panther tanks in the whole of the Eastern Front!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith over 21,000 of the 57,000 T-34s built during WWII being T-34\/85s, the Russian credo was clearly one of quantity over quality, although it was an unwise Panzer commander who discounted the ability of the T-34\/85.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T-34\/85 would be used by many nations post-war. 120 were used during the invasion of South Korea in 1950.

The basic BA-10 design was developed from the BA-3 and BA-6 heavy armored cars.  It had an improved GAZ-AAA chassis and improved armor.  Like its predecessors, the BA-10 could be converted to a half-track by fitting auxiliary tracks to the rear pair of dual tandem wheels.  These tracks were often fitted when the vehicle needed to move across snow or soft ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The BA-10 first saw action against the Japanese in Manchuria at the Battle of Khalkhin Gol in 1939.  Some were captured and later used by the Manchukuo.  It was involved in all the Soviet Union’s subsequent military operations and campaigns of 1939-1940.  During World War II the BA-10 was used against the Germans on the Eastern Front, but was rarely seen after the winter of 1941–42.  Later in the war the heavy scouting role was taken over by light tanks such as the T-60 and T-70.  A few BA-10s were seen as late as 1943 on the Leningrad front.  Large numbers of captured BA-10s were used by Axis powers in Europe.  In May 1945 a few BA-10s of ROA fought alongside the defenders of the Prague uprising.

More important improvements of BA-6 were the new GK tires, filled with sponge (porous rubber) and thus much less vulnerable to small-caliber fire.  On the downside, the tires reduced both the speed and range of the vehicle. It also had a somewhat thinned armor plating.  BA-3\/6 cars were superseded by the BA-10 model.  All cars of this series were very heavily armed for the era; they could knock out other vehicles with ease, including tanks. However, their thin armor made them vulnerable to heavy machine gun and small caliber cannon fire.  A prototype railway BA-3ZD variant was created in 1936 but was not accepted for production.

The BA-3\/6 was used in combat in the Spanish Civil War, against the Japanese in the Battle of Khalkhyn Gol, in the Finnish Winter War, and against the Germans in the early stages of the Eastern Front.

They were known to the Soviet troops as “Katyusha” (the Soviet diminutive of ‘Katie’), because of the large ‘K’ that appeared on the rockets (which were manufactured at the Voronezh Komintern Factory). The M-13 rocket was one of the most common types that was fielded.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMultiple rocket launchers were intended to saturate a large area with high explosive. They could deliver a barrage more quickly than conventional artillery, but were less accurate and took longer to reload. They were also relatively cheap and easy to produce. However, they were vulnerable to counter-battery fire due to the large amount of smoke and dust generated when they were fired, which gave away their position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe design was relatively simple, consisting of racks of parallel rails on which rockets were mounted, with a folding frame to raise the rails into launch position. The M-13 rocket was 80cm (2ft 7in) long, 13.2cm (5.2in) in diameter and weighed 2 kg (93lb). Katyushas were usually mounted on trucks. Each truck had 14 to 48 launchers, depending on the size of the vehicle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKatyushas mounted on trucks could be redeployed quickly after being fired, and thus avoid the inevitable counter-battery fire. The Soviets tested several Lend-Lease truck types as the standard mount for the M-13 launcher, and chose the Studebaker US6 6x6 due to its robust construction and excellent cross-country capability. The weapon system was then standardised in 1943 as the BM-13N (“N” meaning “normalizovanniy” - ‘normalised’). 1,800 of this version were built. By the end of the war, total Katyusha production had reached about 10,000.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Katyusha was greatly feared by German infantry. A battery of four BM-13 launchers could fire a salvo in 7–10 seconds that delivered 4.35 tons of high explosives over a 400,000-square-metre (4,300,000-sq-ft) impact zone, an effect roughly equivalent to that of 72 conventional guns. Katyusha batteries were often massed in very large numbers, with devastating effect. The distinctive howl of the rockets added to the psychological impact of the weapon. The Germans nicknamed the Katyusha “Stalinorgel” (“Stalin’s organ”), because of the launcher’s supposed resemblance to a church organ.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis highly detailed plastic kit depicts a BM-13N Katyusha, comprising a Studebaker US6 6x6 truck with a rotating and elevating rocket launcher.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Hightlights:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Single piece truck cabin\u003cbr\u003e- Rotating \u0026amp; elevating rocket launcher\u003cbr\u003e- Truck can be assembled without the launcher\u003cbr\u003e- Driver figure included\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Code: 280036\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eNumber of Parts: 49 pieces \/ 3 sprues\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlastic Kit - ABS Cement Required\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiniatures supplied unassembled and unpainted.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rubicon Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44660531691589,"sku":"RU-280036","price":37.64,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/5218\/0037\/files\/280036_BM13_Katyusha_MRL.webp?v=1772117906"},{"product_id":"rubicon-miniatures-us6-u3-u4","title":"Rubicon Miniatures - US6 U3 \/ U4","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUS6 U3 \/ U4\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllies 2 1\/2 ton 6x6 Cargo Truck\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Studebaker US6 2½ ton 6x6 truck was part of a family of trucks produced in the US during World War II.

Earlier Soviet self-propelled guns were meant to serve as either assault guns, such as the SU-122, or as tank destroyers; the SU-85 fell into the latter category.  The designation “85” signifies the bore of the vehicle’s armament, the 85mm D-5S gun.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBased on the SU-122 chassis, SU-85 entered production in mid-1943, with the first vehicles reaching their units by August.  When the up-gunned T-34\/85 medium tank entered mass production in the spring of 1944, there was no point in continuing production of a tank destroyer without superior firepower, so SU-85 production was stopped in late 1944 after 2,050 vehicles had been produced.  It was replaced on the production lines by the SU-100 tank destroyer, armed with the more powerful 100mm D-10S gun.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Highlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e- Options to build either a SU-122 or SU-85\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e- Open hatches \u0026amp; elevating gun\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e- Optional fuel cans\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eProduct Code \u003cstrong\u003e280034\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eNumber of Parts:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e59 pieces \/ 3 sprues\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlastic Kit - ABS Cement Required\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiniatures supplied unassembled and unpainted.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rubicon Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44660531757125,"sku":"RU-280034","price":37.64,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/5218\/0037\/files\/280034_SU-85_SU-122.webp?v=1772117908"},{"product_id":"bolt-action-soviet-naval-brigade-medium-machine-gun-team-pre-order","title":"Bolt Action - Soviet Naval Brigade Medium Machine Gun Team","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith the Soviet navy largely bottled up in harbour, many sailors were pressed into service as frontline infantrymen, often still dressed in their black naval uniform with its distinctive cap and striped telnyashka undershirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA number of specialised naval infantry units were formed: forty brigades and five regiments.
