Maastrictian Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 I was playing around with the scenario editor the other day and noticed that many Soviet batalions have two platoons of 8 anti-tank rifles. How were these units used historically? Were they parsled out individually or in pairs to the infantry platoons? Or were they concentrated as "batteries"? --Chris 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 AIUI, doctrine was to use them as a single platoon along the most likely approach route for tanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartokomus Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 not quite on-topic (but close): i just read a fantastic article of a PTR infantryman who knocked out a Stug or Jagdpanzer/IV by hitting it broadside on it's external ammo storage. give it a read Russian Battlefield 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
