Combat Ineffective War Room

The MI-24 was once one of the most feared Soviet weapons.  It was big, heavily armed, and most importantly, it looked the part of being angry and mean.  But, was this icon of the Soviet Union really such a feared opponent?

In the history of Modern Warfare, weapons developers never cease in trying to make new and innovative ways to wage warfare.  The Soviet Union was no stranger to this, and like many of their adversaries and allies, some strange designs went well past the design stage and became true prototypes.  In the 1960s, with the Soviets trying to research and test any weapon willing to give them an edge in combat against the west, they created a weapon that would go on to become known as the Caspian Sea Monster.

The T-72 was once considered the most feared Former Soviet tank on the battlefield.  With a larger main gun than most of their Western adversaries and with production numbers far above the best of the west, it could quickly equip large tank divisions.  In their baptism of fire, the T-72 handled very well in combat, further gaining a reputation for toughness, durability, and the ability to take out what the West was bringing to the fight.
