Production of the combat helicopter Mi-24V started in 1976. This version was equipped with the radically new antitank missile system "Sturm-V" with guidance system "Raduga-Sh", capable of striking targets with the highest accuracy – more than 92%. In other words 9 or even 10 out of 10 discharged missiles hit their designed targets. The Mi-24V excelled its American counterpart, AH-1S Super Cobra in combat efficiency. From 1976 to 1986 about thousand Mi-24V were manufactured in the USSR. These helicopters saw action during the Afghanistan conflict as a part of the Soviet Armies. Many of them were exported in several countries allied with the USSR. Nowadays the Mi-24V is still the backbone of the Russian Army Aviation.

During the Russian campaign of 1812, the foundation of Russian army was the Line infantry. Soldiers were organized and bravely lead to battle by command groups, which were consisting of higher and non-commissioned officers. They were accompanied by standard-bearers and musicians. 'I was myself a witness to many staff and sub-officers who after receiving a couple of wounds dressed them, and returned to the battle as it was the feast' - wrote Nicolay Raevsky in his report. Russian army officers, who often didn't have a Russian origin (Barclay de Tolly and Bagration would be the most striking examples), fought for Russia with such passion and courage that were admired even by their enemies.

It is said that on the battlefield the Emperor Napoleon was able to manage his own artillery as easily as a hussar controls his handgun. Being himself a former artillery officer, Napoleon fully understood the power of heavy guns. It was he who brought to perfection the use of guns as the main instrument of victory.

In Russia guns were always loved. Russian gunsmiths adopted all the new developments in gunnery as soon as they appeared and brought them to perfection. All the rulers (those who understood the importance of the army for the country) spared no effort and resources to improve the artillery. Therefore, by the Patriotic War of 1812 Russian artillery was not technically inferior even to the French one.

Size: 12 cm
Parts: 26
No glue required

Nicknamed for the unstoppable Union general from the American Civil War, the M4 Sherman was the most common tank fielded by the United States during World War II, and many of them were sent to aid Great Britain and the Soviet Union through the Lend-Lease program. Built to be reliable and maneuverable, the Sherman tank was easy and cheap to mass produce, allowing the Americans to outnumber their enemies. This advantage would more than make up for the fact that late German tanks could easily outclass the smaller M4. Ironically, when the M4 first entered service at El Alamein in North Africa, it's 75mm gun and 93mm of armor was superior to the light and medium German tanks used in that battle. This led American planners to conclude that the Sherman would be good enough to win the war, and there was very little tank development after that time. As heavier (and stronger) German tanks entered the battlefield, the M4 lost its advantage, and became dependent on numbers, artillery support, and air superiority to defeat the superior German designs.

The Battle of Stalingrad (23 August 1942 - 2 February 1943) was a major battle of World War II in which Nazi Germany and its allies fought the Soviet Union for control of the city of Stalingrad in the southwestern Soviet Union.

Marked by constant close quarters combat and direct assaults on civilians by air raids, it is often regarded as the single largest and bloodiest battle in the history of warfare.

Development of Pak 40 gun started in 1938, however, since the gun didn't fit the "blitzkrieg" concept, it went on rather slowly. The gun was finally adopted for army service in the end of 1941, when both failure of "blitzkrieg" and incapability of smaller German guns to damage soviet tanks T-34 and KV became evident. Pak 40 gun had a greater firepower than its Soviet counterpart, the ZiS-3 gun, but it was far less mobile and more expensive to produce.

In 1941, after initial fights against Soviet tanks, German command came to conclusion that existing tanks employed by Wehrmacht did not suffice and they needed a tank both better armed and armored. Next year, two prototype heavy tanks were ready. The tank created by Henshel company won and its mass production was immediately launched. The tank was named Tiger. Tigers were first used in combat in the end of 1942, but only in limited quantities. The full-scale use of the tank started the next year. Having a thick armor plating and impressive armament, Tiger became the best-known German tank of World War II era.

ZiS-3 was capable of piercing armor of a majority of German light and medium tanks. The gun was also noted for its reliability and durability. ZiS-3 guns were also easy in manufacturing, and vast numbers of these guns could be produced in short amount of time. In fact, the total amount of ZiS-3 guns produced during World War II is slightly less than 50000.

In 1951, licensed production of the SU-100 started in Czechoslovakia. A total of 4,967 units of the SU-100 were produced across both countries. The first combat use of the SU-100 took place in January 1944. Afterwards, the SU-100 played an important role on all Soviet fronts in late WWII. In later years many Soviet allies used the SU-100 for their armies.

German general-purpose machinegun MG-34 was designed by Rheinmetall AG company and was accepted for army service in 1934. It was the first general-purpose machinegun: it could be mounted on a bipod and be operated by a mobile soldier, or mounted either on tripod to fire at both ground and air units, or on tanks and other vehicles. This versatility combined with high battle characteristics led to its longevity - it was produced up to 1945 and became the basic machinegun type of Wehrmacht. The machinegun could either be belt-fed or magazine-fed, it could fire up to 1700 shots in a minute. The problem with overheating of a barrel was solved by making the barrel removable: while the basic barrel was cooling down, an extra barrel was mounted on the machinegun instead. The crew of a tripod-mounted version was composed of three men.

The mortar could be disassembled and carried by crew ' it didn't have a wheel carriage. The mortar could make up to 25 shots in a minute, its maximum range was 2400 m. The exploders of the mines were highly sensitive and could detonate mines on colliding with tree branches, camouflage nets and other similar objects, so crews had to be careful when shooting.

Therefore, it was decided to create self-propelled gun based on the chassis of that tank. Ferdinands had a powerful defense armor and were armed by 88 mm guns, but had several construction flaws. Particularly, the poor performance and the lack of antipersonnel weapons. In total, about 90 Ferdinands were built.
