Premium Vehicles

Having started life as the BT-7 Soviet light tank, the BT-42, also known as “Christie Rynnäkkötykki”, assumed its new form after being captured and repurposed by the Finnish Army in 1941-2. Its compact size means it accommodates a three-woman crew: Commander Mika, Gunner/Loader Aki, and Driver Mikko in Jatkosota High School’s sensha-dō team. Most effective when fighting to the rousing kantele melody of Säkkijärven Polkka, the BT-42 excels in close combat, where its high-caliber howitzer can really shine. The BT-42's moment of glory came during the Battle for Oarai, when its Christie suspension allowed it to keep running even without its tracks and heroically take out a platoon of M26 Pershings from Hand-Picked University Team.
