Soviet attack technical corps.

coming soon

Shortages meant that Soviet formations were sparsely serviced when it came to transportation and rear echelon support. The Pioneer detachment was a notable exception. Their expertise was essential in bridge building, demolition, fortification construction, mine placement and clearance - all of which the conscripted masses did not possess. Assault engineers were experts in liquidating enemy strong points in advance and clearing obstacles to allow tank units to break through. This was extremely dangerous work with high casualty rates (even by Red Army standards) and assault engineer units were sometimes equipped with SN-42 body armor, which gave them a fighting chance.
