@elgoatmessi.ru26213 The Soviet Union produced 265,600 army trucks during the war, mainly of US design and many from US parts under Leand Lease. They started with about 250,000 trucks, not 1 million, you have to count civilian industry for that number. Soviet trucks were not of the same size and capability of US Lend Lease trucks either. Most Soviet military trucks in 1941 were Zis-5 and Gaz-AA types, 2 wheel drive 1.5 ton capacity. They continued to build these through the war and they just don't measure up to US 600,000 plus supplied 6x6 2.5 ton trucks in any way. US Lend Lease trucks gave the Red Army its offensive tactical logistics in 1944-45.
