Product Description
The cavalry’s machine-guns are mounted on Tachanka (pronounced ta-chan-ka) machine-gun carts. The Tachanka was used by the Ukrainian Anarchist forces during the Russian Civil War of 1919 to 1922 and quickly adopted by their Red Army opponents. The concept was simple and uniquely suited to the circumstances—a marriage of the deadly Maksim heavy machine-gun with the fast Tachanka cart common in southern Russia. This combination used four horses abreast, chariot-style, to give the Tachanka the speed to keep up with the cavalry, providing them with the fire support they needed.
