Strelkovy Platoon - Battle Hardened
(SU802)
In Flames Of War
These can be used as Motostrelkovy, Udarny Strelkovy or Strelkovy and in a variety of other Soviet infantry units.
The Miniatures
These tough Soviet veterans are idea for fielding the men of the Udarny Strelkovy Companies. Use three of these packs for a company or simply mix them with the (SU732) Strelkovy Platoon (Late) miniatures or add them to the Udarny Strelkovy Company.
Many are armed with captured German weapons like the MG-42 machine-gun, STG-44 assault rifle and MP-40 submachine-gun. You can’t enter a battle without picking up a few wounds, even if just light, and a number of these miniatures sport bandages.
It is a truism of warfare that to the soldier it seems the enemy always has the better weapons. It is often the experience or battle hardened soldiers who pick up the enemy weapons and use them in preference to their own. The men of the Red Army were no different.
While the German were happily picking up PPSh submachine-guns and STV semi-automatic rifles, the Soviet were firing MP-40 submachine-guns, MG-34 and MG-42 machine-guns back at them. Life on the front line is hard and many tough soldiers fought on with minor wounds rather than desert their comrades. The bond between soldiers is often strong, especially among the old hands.
