Ivan Mikhaylovich Sidorenko (Russian: Ива́н Миха́йлович Сидоре́нко) (September 12, 1919) was a Red Army officer who served during World War II. He was one of the top Soviet snipers in the war, with over five hundred confirmed kills. Though a number of other Red Army snipers recorded nearly as many kills, Sidorenko was particularly prized by his superiors for his skill in training others in marksmanship. Like many Soviet snipers of the war, Sidorenko's weapon of choice was the Mosin-Nagant rifle equipped with a telescopic sight.
