The heroic workers and superior industrial might of the Soviet Union have guaranteed a steady supply of automatic weapons to the front line soldier. These brave soldiers are well equipped for offensive operations!
The Udarny platoons may not be as large as they were earlier in the war, but this is more than made up for by the bitter combat experience and deadly tenacity of the men.
