Comparing: M3 Stuart vs. Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. G vs. T-70

Developed in 1938 through 1941 on the basis of the M2. Mass-produced from 1941. More than 13,000 vehicles in various versions were built, from the M3 to the M3A3, all of which were supplied to almost every allied nation under Lend-Lease. The M3 tanks were designated Stuart I by the British, while the M3A1 version received the designation Stuart III. The M3 first saw action in the battle at Sidi Rezegh.

The German WWII light reconnaissance tank was a modification of the Pz. II tank. The vehicle featured an improved hull and suspension, a more powerful engine, and observation devices for the radio operator and driver, which increased the view range.

Developed in October and November 1941 at the Construction Bureau of the Gorky Automobile Plant under the supervision of N. A. Astrov. The vehicle came into service in January 1942, and it was mass-produced until October 1943, with a total of 8231 vehicles manufactured. Some vehicles were used until the end of the war.
