Soviet Naval Brigade ‘Tank Hunters’ Anti-Tank Team

Among these improvised weapons was the iconic Molotov cocktail, a simple yet effective homemade incendiary device capable of disabling vulnerable vehicles. Later in the war, Soviet forces also made extensive use of captured anti-tank weapons such as the German Panzerfaust, which became a preferred tool for specialised tank-hunting teams. Combined with specialised training in close-range engagements, these weapons turned tank hunters into a constant threat to enemy armoured units.

On the Bolt Action tabletop, Tank Hunters provide a small infiltration unit equipped with a lethal anti-tank capability. Their ability to deploy in advanced positions and strike decisively makes them a valuable addition to any Rifle Platoon expecting to face enemy armour. This unit offers both tactical flexibility and reliable stopping power, strengthening your army’s battlefield options.
