T-70 (Soviet)

Description

The T-70 was a Soviet light tank introduced in 1942 and used throughout the rest of WWII. Designed as an improvement of the previous T-60, it had a more powerful 45mm main gun, better cross country capabilities and slightly thicker armour. The T-70 still suffered from the drawbacks of relatively thin armour and a weak gun when placed next to even contemporary medium tanks, but it could be produced in large numbers by factories unable to manufacture larger tanks. 

Its finest moment was when a lone T70, commanded by Sergeant Alexander Pegov, ambushed a column of 18 Germans tanks and knocked out two Panthers, immobilizing the column.
