T-26B Light Tank

The T-26 light tank was the Soviet version of the Vickers 6-ton tank. The T-26B had a single turret mounting a 45mm gun and a 7.62mm MG although there were many other conversions. First seeing action in the Spanish Civil War, the T-26 then continued in the "Winter War" against Finland in 1939-1940. Few survived the first years of the war in 1941 although at the time over 3,400 vehicles were in service.
