Soviet infantry tactics, 1925
« on: 29 July 2025, 01:13:21 AM »
Here is an interesting 1925 article on Soviet infantry tactics by Tukhachevsky.  John D Salt on the Wargames Website posted this translation in 2019 but I hadn't seen it until recently.

Interesting, albeit bizarre. It's more of a brain fart than anything. To the best of my knowledge the Soviets never incorporated Maxims at platoon level and for good reason, trundling a 60+ kilo machine gun around plus ammo would have killed any mobility.

Maybe Stalin had a point when he offed Tuchachevksy?
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
