Bolt Action Soviet T70 Light Tank
The T-70 was a Soviet light tank introduced in 1942 to replace the earlier T-60. Armed with a 45mm gun and a coaxial machine gun, it provided the Red Army with a balance of mobility and firepower at a time when heavier tanks like the T-34 were in short supply. Though lightly armoured and eventually outclassed by German weapons, the T-70 played an important role in reconnaissance, infantry support, and filling the gaps on the Eastern Front during some of the war’s hardest-fought battles.

About the Vehicle:
The T-70 was produced in large numbers between 1942 and 1943, with over 8,000 built. While vulnerable against heavier German armour, it excelled in reconnaissance and support missions. Its 45mm gun was sufficient against early- to mid-war Axis vehicles, and its small size made it easier to conceal in ambush positions. Eventually replaced by lend-lease tanks and the versatile SU-76M, the T-70 remained in service until the end of the war, even participating in the Battle of Berlin.
