                        BA-64 Armored car

The BA-64, the standard light armored car of the Red Army, was first envisioned between July and December 1941 on the chassis of the GAZ-64 car. It used both pre-war Soviet developments in all-wheel drive armored cars and the experience gained in the study of captured German armored vehicles, like the Sd.Kfz.222. The BA-64 was the first Soviet all-wheel drive armored car and would remain the only vehicle of this class in service during the war, with a production of up to 9110 armored vehicles from April 1942 to early 1946.

The Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army (Russian: Рабоче-крестьянская Красная армия (РККА), Raboče-krestjjanskaja Krasnaja armija (RKKA)), frequently shortened to Red Army (Красная армия (КА), Krasnaja armija (KA); also in critical literature and folklore of that epoch – Red Horde, Army of Work) was the army and the air force of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, and, after 1922, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).
