3-ya Gvard. Tankovy Korpus

3-ya Gvard. Tankovy Korpus is a Soviet Armored division in Steel Division II. During Bagration, the 3rd Guards Tank Corps spearheaded the Red Army’s drive along the Moscow-Minsk highway. As such, it suffered terrible losses while attacking German strongpoints head-on at Bobr, Krupki, and Losnica.

This division is unique as it is entirely equipped with lend-lease tanks, foremost the American M4A2 “Emcha” as its main combat tank, as well as British Valentines for recon duties. Some independent heavy tank support is available in the form of the hard-hitting IS-2 obr. 1944. Another special feature is its anti-tank regiment, equipped with brand-new dual-purpose 85mm guns. Towed 37mm and lend-lease M15 AA half-tracks give this division powerful anti-air defenses.

The 3rd Guards Tank Corps can count on numerous tanks, as well as powerful and versatile AA units, but lacks the punch of other Soviet tank corps in long-range engagements.
