The Mongolian army in the Manchurian operation of the Soviet troops against Japan in August 1945.

The Mongolian units operated as part of the horse-mechanized group (HMG) of the Trans-Baikal Front. HMG commanded soviet Colonel-General Issa Pliev.
The composition of the horse-mechanized group:

Soviet units:
85 rifle corps (management)
59th Cavalry Division
27th Motorized Rifle Brigade
43th Tank Brigade
25th Mechanized Brigade
35th Anti-tank Fighter Brigade
30th Motorcycle Regiment

Mongolian units:
5th Cavalry Division
6th Cavalry Division
7th Cavalry Division
8th Cavalry Division
7th motorized armored brigade
3rd Separate Tank Regiment
29th Artillery Regiment



















It will not be difficult to create such an army - the differences from the USSR army are minimal. Only need a lot of cavalry)))
