Russian units in Warfront: Turning Point
The following contains a list of infantry and vehicles that feature in the game Warfront: Turning Point.

Infantry
Red Army Infantry
The infantry units of the Soviet Red Army are always in the first line. They're cheap, equipped with old machine guns and because of the lack of training they can only be used effectively in great numbers.
Red Army Medic
This unarmed unit is well trained in giving aid, but quite inexperienced in combat. He's able to heal nearby injured infantry units inside a small radius, even in combat situations.
Kommissar
The Kommisars are cruel, but efficient officers and supervisors of the Soviet Red Army. Their job is to keep up the morale inside the Red Army by any means necessary.
Vodka Dealer
The Vodka Dealer is a merchant, who works for the Soviet Red Army. He distributes vodka to infantry units, raising their morale and making them immortal while he's alive.
Molotov Infantry
The Molotov Infantry is a regular foot soldier equipped with highly flammable Molotov cocktails. He's very effective against light, medium and heavily armored vehicles.
Paratroops Infantry
The Paratrooper is the only air-to-ground support of the Soviet Forces. By calling in a modified Tupolev to the battlefield, which drop infantry to the selected target area.
Partisans
The Partisans are a well-organized group of trained freedom fighters, which coordinate their devastating actions with the operations of the Soviet Red Army. They can infiltrate any base, entering undetected and leaving the base's defenses intact. They increase in number whenever they engage in a fight.
Vehicles
T-70
Small, fast and durable, the T-70 is a good clean-up vehicle. Its main weakness is its 45mm cannon, which is ineffective against heavily armored vehicles. Able to be produced quickly and in large numbers, the T-70 proves most effective in large groups.
ZIS-42
The ZIS-42 is a cheap Armored Personal Carrier, a fast armored vehicle that can carry infantry units with great speed, equipped with a machine gun to defend itself.
APC Mole
This APC Mole is an underground Armored Personal Carrier, able to carry large numbers of troops underground anywhere on the battlefield. The APC Mole is unarmed, has medium armor and it's able to move on the surface as well.
T-34-85
The T-34-85 is the standard medium tank in the Soviet Red Army, has medium armor and weaponry. Like the Stalin, the T-34-85s were produced in great numbers, but the mass production caused a lack to the structural integrity, making the tank much more vulnerable than the other tanks.
IS-3 Stalin
The IS-3 Stalin is the common heavy tank of the Soviet Red Army, equipped with heavy armor and weaponry. Developed from the generally successful IS-2 series, this vehicle combines an enormously powerful 122 mm gun with innovative armor design, including the angled glacis plate and flattened hemisphere turret.
Kharkov-Rampager
The Kharkov-Rampager is the dreadnought tank of the Soviet Red Army, equipped with ultra heavy armor and five independent high caliber turrets. While the Kharkov is more than a match for any Allied and German tank, the lack of Anti-Air weapons, speed and maneuverability make it vulnerable to any non-ground threat.
Katyusha
The Katyusha is a multiple rocket-launcher vehicle nicknamed "Stalin's Organ" due to the alignment of the rocket rails and the near deafening noise of the launch of a rocket volley from it. The Katyusha's rockets are typically not as accurate as other long range ordinance, though their impact is devestating, especially when employed in large groups in attacks upon armor columns and infantry. The sound of a Katyusha volley being launched is a powerful psychological weapon, feared almost as much as the shriek of a German Stuka dive bomber approaching its target.
Moving Giant Turret
The Moving Giant Turret is self-deployable artillery, equipped with heavy armor, but with relatively weak engines. It has a large firing range, but due to the lack of the mobile stabilizer and turret servo systems, it can only fire in a deployed position and in a narrow arc.
Ice Spitter
The Ice Spitter is one of the newest experimental weapons of the Soviet Red Army, developed simultaneously with the Winter's Breath. It carries a huge amount of liquid nitrogen. The Ice Spitter is able to freeze hostile units with its weapon for a long time.
ZUS-37
Fast and easy to produce, the ZSU-37 is the mainstay of Soviet anti-aircraft weapons, protecting Red Army units from bombers and fighters alike
Jakovlev YAK-9
The Yak-9 was a popular Soviet aircraft, designed with the intent to hunt down and destroy enemy bombers and soft ground targets.
Sturmovik IL-2
The Il-2 is a two-seat combat aircraft. The IL-2's armor covers the entire fuselage front section and engine. Often called the "concrete airplane," the IL-2 required concentrated enemy fire to take it down.
Artillery Strike
A requested heavy artillery barrage to a selected target area, it's able to inflict moderate damage to large groups of soldiers, vehicles, base defenses and buildings.
Tupolev Bomber
The Tupolev TB-3 is heavy bomber, equipped with loads of bombs and heavy armor. The TB-3 is capable of making effective bombing runs against all kinds of units and buildings. The lack of speed and maneuverability makes the TB-3 a very vulnerable aircraft against Anti-Aircraft weaponry and interceptor fighters.
Winter's Breath
The Ice Bomber, codenamed the "Winter Breath" is a modified Tupolev TB-3, carrying an experimental weapon, the Ice Bomb to the target area. After the explosion the liquid nitrogen freezes all units and buildings inside a large radius. Like the standard TB-3, the lack of speed and maneuverability makes the TB-3IB a very vulnerable aircraft against Anti-Aircraft weapons and interceptor fighters.
