Soviet Trucks & Cars in WW2 Explained | 55 Red Army Vehicles That Moved the Eastern Front
In World War II, tanks and aircraft often get the spotlight, but behind every major Soviet offensive, thousands of trucks, cars, tractors, armored cars, and support vehicles kept the Red Army moving.
In this episode, we explore 55 Soviet and Lend-Lease vehicles used by the Red Army during World War II — from legendary Soviet workhorses like the GAZ-AA, ZiS-5, GAZ-67, BA-64, and STZ-5, to powerful Allied Lend-Lease vehicles like the Studebaker US6, Dodge WC-51, Chevrolet G7107, and Willys MB Jeep.
These vehicles carried soldiers, ammunition, fuel, food, artillery, medical teams, radio equipment, and even the famous Katyusha rocket launchers across the brutal Eastern Front. Some were simple Soviet-built machines created for survival under wartime pressure, while others arrived through Lend-Lease and gave the Red Army stronger mobility and logistics power.
This is the story of the forgotten machines behind Soviet victory — the trucks and cars that moved the Eastern Front.
