  • The Soviet Armed Forces refer to the armed forces of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (1917—1922), and the Soviet Union (1922—1991).

After World War II the Strategic Rocket Forces (1960), Air Defence Forces (1948) and troops of the Civil Defence were added, standing first, third and sixth in the official Soviet reckoning of comparative importance (with the Ground Forces being second, the Air Forces fourth, the Navy fifth, Border Troops seventh and Internal Troops eighth.)

  • The Soviet Armed Forces (Russian: Советские Вооруженные Силы), also known as the Red Army, was the combined armed forces of the United Soviet Socialist Republics. Formed in 1917, it was unified under the USSR from 1922 after the reorganization of four Soviet nations to the dissolution of the union in 1991. Featured in Spearhead, Breakthrough, and European Assault, the Soviet Union's involvement with Western allies is exemplified through the use of OSS operatives to gain intelligence and increase battle effectiveness. Most notable for the Great Patriotic War, Russia with the early economic aid from the West, a massive military force and great industrial prowess, the Soviet Armed Forces brought Germany to its knees, recapturing all of East Europe and assaulting the capital of Berlin. During World War II, the Soviet Armed Forces were split into the Red Army, Red Navy and Red Air Force. Although the Red Navy only saw major action in the Baltics, Black Sea and the Arctic Circle, and the Red Air Force only saw major prominence after the victory at Stalingrad, the Red Army was a massive force. While being unequipped to fight the Wehrmacht initially, by the end of the war, it was a formidable, well equipped force. The OSS's equivalent in the Soviet Union would have been the NKVD, the precursor to the KGB.

They engaged the U.S. military in some of the Cold War's proxy wars, such as the Korean War and the Vietnam War. In Vietnam, the only Soviet soldiers participating were 3000 soldiers under the guise of being advisors. Following the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the 1991 coup d'etat it ceased to exist as the Soviet Union dissolves.
