The figures represent a typical composition of a Soviet tank crew, which included: commander, driver-mechanic, gunner, and radio operator. In the early period of the Great Patriotic War, Soviet armored units were equipped with various types of tanks, such as light T-26, BT-5, BT-7, as well as medium and heavy T-28 and T-35. Over time, as the conflict developed, more advanced models joined the arsenal, such as the T-34 and heavy KW-1 and KW-2.

The armored forces of the USSR, known as the Red Army, played a crucial role in the military strategy of the Soviet Union. Their main task was to break through the enemy's defenses, conduct raids behind enemy lines, and neutralize German armored units. From the spring of 1942, during the stabilization of the fronts of the German-Soviet war, Soviet armored armies began to be formed, which became the highest organizational structure of the armored forces of the Red Army. They were intended to break through German defenses and carry out long-range raid operations, making them extremely effective in combat against German divisions and armored corps.
