The Soviet Seven | Backbone of the Red Army

Описание: During the 1970s and 80s, the core of the Soviet Army was made up of seven combat vehicles. Used heavily not just by the Soviets themselves, but the nations of the Warsaw Pact, and allies across Africa and the Middle East as well, the "Soviet Seven" would become some of the most common AFVs in the world throughout the latter part of the Cold War.

In this video, I thought I'd do something a little different, and spend some time covering not just the vehicles themselves and their raw capabilities, but HOW they are actually used, and how they're organised within the armed forces that operate them. Let me know in the comments if this is a concept that interests you, and I'll see about doing some similar videos going over the core assets of some other countries' armed forces at different points in history, a sort of "primer" to the nation's AFV fleet.
