T-26b and T-26c

Thousands of these were built before the war as "fast tanks", and formed the majority of Russian stocks at the beginning of the war. They served well in the Spanish Civil War but were chewed up by the heavier German tanks. The T-26b had a 37mm gun and the T 26c had a 45mm gun.

T-60

This light tank entered production in November 1941 and about 6,000 were built. It was armed with a 20mm gun

T-70

The T-70 began production in early 1942 and over 8,000 were made. It carried a 45mm gun but many different versions were produced (e.1g. flame thrower tank, artillery tractor, command vehicle, etc.). The T-70 chassis was also used for the SU-76 SP gun.
