Another relic of the previous summer’s bitter tank battles: a battered and flipped BT-5 light tank. As the holes clearly testify, its thin armour proved singularly ill suited to coping with German anti-tank guns. While both the BT and T-26 remained in service in the Soviet Far East, the BT was phased out on the Eastern Front through a simple process of attrition. (Scott Pick Collection)

The spring thaw in 1942 played havoc with both sides’ military vehicles. The steel road wheels on this T-34/76B were not ideal for such soft conditions, though the wide tracks helped. Dirt roads soon turned into seas of mud, hampering troop concentrations and the movement of vital supplies. (Scott Pick Collection)
