Historical Background:
Armoured trains were an important element of Soviet weaponry since World War I, but their widespread use took place during World War II (1939–1945). Russian armoured trains participated in battles on the Eastern Front, supporting offensives, transporting soldiers and supplies, and securing railway lines against enemy sabotage. Their steel armor, along with mounted cannons and machine guns, made them a difficult target for the enemy. One example of their use was during the Battle of Stalingrad, where armoured trains played a significant role in logistics and defense.
