Historical description

The Seven Years' War was one of the most significant conflicts of the 18th century that shaped Europe's geopolitical landscape. Austrian dragoons and Prussian hussars were key cavalry formations fighting on numerous European battlefields, such as the battles of Kunersdorf and Leuthen. Austrian dragoons were famous for their versatility—they could fight both mounted and on foot. Prussian hussars, in turn, were regarded as elite light cavalry, capable of rapid raids, reconnaissance, and diversionary operations. The period of their use was the mid-18th century, closely linked to the years 1756-1763.
