The BA-20 was developed in 1936 and was used
by HQ Staff, reconnaissance and communication
units. Built from the civilian GAZ-M1
automobile, which was a modified Ford design
it mounted a turret w/ one 7.62mm machine gun
Production ended in 1941 however, many were
used against German forces during the June
1941 invasion.
