The Soviet self-propelled gun SU-85 (Samohodnaya ustanovka 85) entered production in 1943 when the Red Army needed a powerful gun to defeat the new German tanks such as the Tiger I and later the Panther. The SU-85 was equipped with a D-5T high-velocity 85mm antitank gun which was capable of penetrating the Tiger I from 1000 meters. 2,050 vehicles had been built until 1944 when the SU-85 was replaced by the SU-100 armed with an even more powerful 100mm D-10S gun. The SU-85 saw service on the Eastern Front until the end of WWII. After the war it was exported to many Soviet states and other countries and remained in service for many years in certain countries such as Vietnam and North Korea.

Miniart 1:35 - T-54-1 Soviet Medium Tank - Plastic Figure Model Kit #37014
The T-54-1 was the first battle tank of the T-54 series developed on the basis of T-44 prototypes after the end of the Second World War. Its production started with 3 vehicles built in 1946. By 1948 the output volume grew significantly, however production was stopped due to poor factory conditions. After a year it was relaunched, but already with an improved T-54-2 version.
At the final stage of the war Soviet engineers sought for replacement of the T-34 and T-44 lines with a vehicle which could carry a 100 mm gun. Their attempts resulted in a new model designated T-54. It was widely deployed by the Soviet Army and the armies of the Warsaw Pact countries throughout the later part of the 20th century. Experts estimate that during that time over 80 thousand of units were issued which makes the T-54 the most extensively used tank in military history.

The Soviet T-54 main battle tank was introduced after the Second World War with the first prototype built in 1945. Production started in 1948 with the T-54-1, and in 1949 the Soviet Union launched the modernised version of the tank, the T-54-2. It had a modified turret inspired by the heavy IS-3 tank, the tracks were expanded to 480mm which helped reduce ground pressure, and the thickness of frontal upper plate was decreased to 100mm. In 1949-1951 the Stalin Ural Tank Factory No. 183 had built over 1200 T-54-2's before the next modernisation phase took place.

The T-54-3 belonged to the T-54 family of Soviet main battle tanks issued right after the end of the Second World War. Having taken parts in many conflicts during the latter half of the 20th century, the T-54 became the leading tank of the Soviet Army, armies of the Warsaw Pact countries and others. The T-54 series was later replaced from Russian service by the T-62, T-64, T-80 and other tanks, however it is still used by the armies of up to 50 other nations.
The T-54-3 was an modified version of the earlier T-54-2 main battle tank. It featured an improved turret without side undercuts and the new TSh-2-22 telescopic gunner's sight. The tank was also equipped with the TDA smoke-generating system.

The production of T-55 started in January 1958 at Uralvagonzavod. Compared to the T-54, this tank had a number of differences, the main ones being NBC protection and a new engine. Overtime the T-54's were modernised and together with T-55's they formed the T-54/55 series. These tanks became the most inexpensive MBTs which together with their reliability led to the highest number of exports among any modern tanks in history.

Miniart 1:35 - T-60 (Plant No. 264) Stalingrad w/Interior - Plastic Figure Model Kit #35219
The T-60 was a Soviet light tank produced in 1941-1942. The production of the T-60 started just after the German invasion of the Soviet Union. This scout tank was armed with a 20 mm TNSh cannon which later proved to be inefficient against new German tanks. In 1942 it was attempted to substitute the cannon with the 37 mm ZIS-19 but this did not happen due to the shortage of 37 mm ammunition. The T-60 was then replaced by the new T-70 light tank.
A total of 6,292 T-60 tanks were built. 1186 of those were produced at Plant No. 264 located near Stalingrad in 1941 and 1942.

Miniart 1:35 - T-60 Early Series with Interior - Plastic Model Kit #35215
The T-60 was a Soviet light tank of WWII aimed to replace the T-38 amphibious tank, outdated by that time. The prototype for the T-60, the T-30B, was built at Moscow Factory No. 37. It had the T-40's chassis and was equipped with heavier armour, yet it was easier to construct overall. The T-30B was commissioned to production under the name T-60 in 1941 and was produced until 1942. During the year of production over six thousand T-60 tanks were issued.
Initially the T-60 was armed with a 20mm TNSh cannon (a tank version of the ShVAK aircraft auto-cannon) which could pierce 15mm armour at the distance of 500m. That range was insufficient against contemporary German tanks so the 37mm ZIS-19 cannon was offered as a replacement. However, it turned out to be impossible to re-arm the tank as 37mm ammunition was scarce in the USSR at that time.
During the war, the Germans managed to capture several T-60 tanks and used them under the name Panzerkampfwagen T-60 743(r).

Based on the earlier T-64 model, the Soviet T-80 is a third-generation main battle tank which entered service in 1976. The T-80 was designed to use a 1,000 horsepower gas turbine, but some later variants have a 750-horsepower diesel engine. The 125mm 2A46 smoothbore gun can fire anti-tank guided missiles and regular ordnance. The production of T-80 for the Russian Army has stopped, but the Omsk plant still produces the tank for export. The T-80 and its variants are in service in Armenia, Belarus, Cyprus, China, Egypt, Kazakhstan, South Korea, Pakistan, Russia, Ukraine and Yemen.

Miniart 1:35 - Soviet Artillery Crew on Maneuvere - Plastic Figure Model Kit #35081
The Soviet anti-tank gun ZiS-3, also known as the 76-mm divisional gun M1942, was constructed at the Artillery Factory No. 92 in 1940 for the needs of the Red Army suffering enormous losses at the beginning of the Second World War. The gun was developed by V.G. Grabin, a Soviet artillery designer. The ZiS-3 design was based on the F-22USV cannon and the ZiS-2 anti-tank gun. Combining the F-22USV barrel and the ZiS-2 carriage, the ZiS-3 turned out to be far more effective compared to its prototypes. Unlike the F-22USV, the ZiS-3 was equipped with a muzzle brake which allowed to reduce recoil. Besides, its production was a lot easier and cheaper because most parts were manufactured by means of casting, and it was allowed to use materials lower in quality.
During the war, when fast production and large quantities were the highest priority, the ZiS-3 took part in combat without having been put to the tests. However, in the battlefield it proved its superiority over other anti-tank guns and later it was recognised by the authorities and obtained its official name - the divisional field gun model 1942. Due to its high combat effectiveness, the ZiS-3 had the largest share in the field gun production at wartime.

Ford licensed the production of the Model AA to several countries, including the Soviet Union. From 1932 to 1950 the USSR manufactured over 985,000 AA's, designated the GAZ AA. The cargo capacity of the Soviet model was 1,500 kg. Another version of this truck with a stronger 50HP engine is often called GAZ–MM, after the engine.

Miniart 1:35 - Soviet Naval Troops (Special Edition) - Plastic Figure Model Kit #35094
Building a Soviet fleet was a national priority, but many senior officers were killed in purges in the late 1930s. When Germany invaded in 1941 and captured millions of soldiers, many sailors and naval guns were detached to reinforce the Red Army; these reassigned naval forces had especially significant roles on land in the battles for Odessa, Sevastopol, Stalingrad, Novorossiysk, Tuapse, and Leningrad. The Baltic fleet was blockaded in Leningrad and Kronstadt by minefields, but the submarines escaped. The surface fleet fought with the anti-aircraft defence of the city and bombarded German positions.
Through Lend-Lease, the U.S. and Britain gave the USSR ships with a total displacement of 810,000 tons. The composition of the Soviet fleets in 1941 included 3 aged battleships, 7 cruisers, 59 destroyer-leaders and squadron-destroyers, 218 submarines, 269 torpedo boats, 22 patrol vessels, 88 minesweepers, 77 submarine-hunters, and a range of other smaller vessels.
During the war, many of the vessels on the slips in Leningrad and Nikolayev were destroyed (mainly by aircraft and mines), but the Soviet Navy received captured Romanian destroyers and Lend-Lease small craft from the U.S., as well as the old Royal Navy battleship HMS Royal Sovereign (renamed Arkhangelsk) and the United States Navy cruiser USS Milwaukee (renamed Murmansk) in exchange for the Soviet part of the captured Italian navy.
From the beginning of hostilities, Soviet Naval Aviation provided air support to naval and land operations involving the Soviet Navy. This service was responsible for the operation of shore-based floatplanes, long-range flying boats, catapult-launched and vessel-based planes, and land-based aircraft designated for naval use.

The Soviet T-70 was a light tank used during the Second World War. It was intended to replace two other tanks: the T-60 scout tank and the T-50 light infantry tank. The T-70 had a 45mm L/46 gun Model 38 and a coaxial 7.62mm DT machine gun. The maximum armour thickness was 60mm (on the turret front). The first tanks produced had a serious problem with the arrangement of engines, and were soon redesigned as the T-70M tanks, although they continued to be referred to as T-70. The production started in 1942 and ended in 1943, with 8,226 vehicles completed. The tank remained in service until 1948.
The ZiS-3 was a Soviet 76.2mm divisional field gun used during the Second World War. ZiS stood for "Zavod imeni Stalina" ("Factory named after Stalin"), the honorific title of the factory which first constructed this gun.

The number "85" stands for the bore of its armament, 85 mm D-5S gun, which was modified from the 85 mm anti-aircraft gun by Fyodor Petrov and was strong enough to penetrate the Tiger I from 1000 m. The advantages of the SU-85 also included excellent mobility and a standard commander's cupola that ensured good visibility. Though successfully used in combat until the end of the war, the SU-85 was replaced by the SU-100 which proved to be more effective.

Miniart 1:35 - T-44 Soviet Medium Tank - Plastic model kit #35193
The T-44 was a Soviet medium tank first produced near the end of the Second World War. Compared to its predecessor, the T-34, this model had greater armour and improved ride and cross-country performance. By the time the T-44 was fully tested, the T-34 was equipped with the same 85mm main gun. Therefore the main focus of the Soviet Union was to increase the production of T-34's rather than introducing the T-44. Overall less than 2,000 T-44's were built, and although these tanks were available by the end of the war, they were not used in combat. During the war the Soviet Union started working on a slightly enlarged version of the T-44. This newer design entered production in 1947 as the T-54/55 - one of the most-produced tanks in military history.

Miniart 1:35 - USV-BR 76mm Gun Mod.1941 with Limber and Crew - Plastic model kit #35129
The USV was a Soviet 76 mm cannon issued in 1939 for the demands of the Red Army. The gun was classified as "divisional" because it was specifically meant for batteries under the direct command of division headquarters. Based on the previous F-22 design, the USV gun was also called the F-22 USV.
By 1940 over a thousand units were ready, and in 1941 when the plan for divisional guns was fulfilled, the production stopped, however not for long. With the German invasion of the Soviet Union the production was reopened at the Barrikady factory in Stalingrad and No. 92 Plant in Nizhny Novgorod. The relaunched model was designated the USV-BR. It was widely deployed in 1941, the first year of the Great Patriotic War. Over eight thousand units were built in the following two years, but by the end of 1942 the USV-BR was completely replaced by the simpler and cheaper ZiS-3.
The kit contains 329 parts.
Includes parts for a Soviet USV-BR gun with a 52-R-353M limber (Mod. 1942), five figures and six ammunition boxes with shells.

Trumpeter 1:35 Soviet Soldiers - Afghan War - Plastic Figure Model Kit #00433
The Soviet-Afghan War started in December 1979 and lasted for ten years until February 1989. The government of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan and the Soviet Army fought against insurgent groups who were backed by the United States and Pakistan. The conflict began in 1978 when People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan took power and implemented a series of reforms which were unpopular among the rural population of Afghanistan. The government arrested thousands of people from the opposition and executed thousands of political prisoners. By 1979 the country was in open rebellion and the president Nur Mohammad Taraki was murdered under orders of the Minister of Foreign Affairs who then took the president's post. These events resulted in the Soviet decision to send its troops to Afghanistan in December 1979. During the course of the war, between 500 thousand and 2 million civilians were killed. Millions of Afghans fled the country as refugees mostly to Pakistan and Iran.
This kit includes parts for the assembly of three Soviet soldiers and seven rifles.

Trumpeter 1:35 - BS-3 Soviet 100mm Anti-tank Gun M1944 - Plastic model kit #02331
The BS-3 was based on a B-34 naval gun. The development team was led by V. G. Grabin. The gun was employed by light artillery brigades of tank armies (20 pieces along with 48 ZiS-3) and by corps artillery. In the Second World War the BS-3 was successfully used as a powerful anti-tank gun. It was capable of defeating any contemporary tank at long range, excluding the Tiger Ausf B: to destroy that heavy tank the gun needed to shoot at less than 1600m from the target. The gun was also used as a field gun. Though in this role it was less powerful than the 122 mm A-19, as it fired a smaller round, the BS-3 was more mobile and had a higher rate of fire.

Trumpeter 1:35 - JS-7 Soviet Super Heavy Tank - Plastic model kit #05586
The JS-7 heavy tank, also known as the IS-7, was designed in 1948. With its mass equal to 68 tonnes it was the largest and heaviest specimen of the Joseph Stalin tank series. The JS-7 was distinguished by 130 mm S-70 long-barrel gun and thick armour able to protect against the German Pak 44 L/55. Besides, the JS-7 had a "pike nose" front that ensured a high level of protection against head-on attacks. Due to its 1050-hp engine, the tank could travel at 60 km/h.
Despite all its merits, the JS-7 never entered production; there were fears that railway platforms and bridges couldn't bear its weight.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Trumpeter 1:35 Russian 9P113 TEL with 9M21 Rocket of 9K52 Luna-M Short-range artillery - Plastic model kit #01025
The 9K52 Luna-M ("Luna" - Russian: Луна, English: moon) is a Russian short-range artillery rocket system designed to deliver 9M21 uncontrolled missiles. The system is also known under the NATO name "FROG-7" (Free Rocket Over Ground).
The rockets are carried by the 9P113 transport erector launcher (TEL). Derived from the ZIL-135 8x8 army truck, the 9P113 has a hydraulic crane used for reloading rockets from other transporters. The range of the rocket is up to 70 km and a CEP (circle of equal probability) is between 500 m and 700 m. The 9M21 can deliver nuclear or chemical warheads weighting 550 kg.
According to some experts, the 9M21 rockets loaded with nuclear warheads were transported to Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Also the 9K52 Luna-M system was extensively used in a number of Warsaw Pact states and in the Middle East. Currently it serves with the armies of Russia, Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, Egypt and several other countries.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet 122mm Howitzer D-30 (Early version) - Plastic model kit #02328
The Soviet 122mm Howitzer D-30 entered service in the 1960s. It was a relatively light and handy weapon, but heavy enough for sustained long range fire in the field. The D-30 had a maximum range of 15.4 kilometers, or over 21 km using RAP ammunition. With its striking three-leg stabilising system the D-30 could be rapidly traversed through 360 degrees.
The D-30 howitzer is no longer manufactured in the former Soviet Union nations, but is still produced internationally and is in service in more than 60 countries' armed forces.
The 2A18 gun is the primary weapon of the 2S1 self-propelled howitzer. There are also Egyptian, Chinese, and Syrian self-propelled variants and conversions. The Syrian conversion uses the hull of a T-34 tank.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet 1K17 Szhatie - Plastic model kit #05542
The 1K17 Szhatie was a self-propelled laser vehicle created on a decline of the Soviet Union's existence. Its development based on the 2S19 Msta-S howitzer was aimed at enemy's optical electronic devices. An artificial ruby weighting 30 kg was embedded into the vehicle. The ruby was used in order to focalise the laser beam. Besides, silver coating of some optical elements helped to increase the beam strength. Despite the fact that the vehicle had passed all military tests, its expensive production along with the collapse of the Soviet Union made the Russian authorities consider its further manufacturing unprofitable. The Russian word "Сжатие" ("Szhatie") means "Compression".
