It is a fact that the number of people killed by AK-47 assault rifles is even many times greater than that of nuclear bombs in all wars.

| Not a nuclear bomb, the truest weapon of mass destruction ever created by the Soviet Union was the AK-47, the country's legendary assault rifle and the most successful gun design in human history. Photo source: Gettyimg. |
 |
| Mass-produced since 1949, the AK-47 has proven its durability as it can operate in any environment, any condition, does not require regular maintenance and has extremely great destructive power. Photo source: Kavkaz. |
 |
| Up to now, a total of about 75 million AK-47s have been officially produced. If we count the number of AK-47s that are fake, homemade, unofficially produced, etc., this number will probably reach 100 million. Photo source: Lunatic. |
 |
| This is also the only gun in the world that appears on... the national flag of a country. Almost every war, every armed conflict since the 1950s has had the AK-47 in its sights. There are no statistics on the number of people who have been killed by the AK-47 since it was introduced, but given its popularity, its number of victims must certainly be much higher than that of the atomic bomb.

| The second name that needs to be mentioned is the T-34 tank, produced from 1940 to the late 60s, the T-34 is also considered one of the most powerful weapons. |
 |
| Like all other Soviet weapons, the T-34 was characterized by high efficiency, low cost, durability, ease of repair, ease of operation and ease of maintenance. Photo source: Debate. |
 |
| In total, more than 150,000 T-34 tanks were produced by 1996. The T-34 is still in service with 27 countries around the world. Even as late as 2012, there were still a few countries in Africa that continued to use this type of tank in their official service. Photo source: Pinterest. |

| Given the rather beautiful name of "Stalin's organ" by the Nazis, the Kachiusa rocket artillery was truly one of the weapons that truly embodied the Soviet Union's total war philosophy during the most intense period of World War II. Photo source: Defency. |
 |
| The philosophy is to make up for quality with quantity. The concrete manifestation here is that the Cachiusa systems have very low accuracy and very large bullet dispersion, but when used in combination with about a dozen Cachiusa systems together and aimed at the same area, within a radius of several kilometers around that area will certainly become flatland.

| During the Korean War, the Soviet Union's first generation jet fighters, the MiG-15, defeated all enemy fixed-wing aircraft, making it one of the most legendary and fearsome fighters of the 1950s. Photo source: MiGfu. |
 |
| This is also considered the most produced jet fighter in the world, of which the Soviet Union produced about 12,000 MiG-15s and if counting the number licensed for production abroad, this number could be up to 18,000. Photo source: MiGfu. |

| The Vietnam People's Air Force also once owned this legendary aircraft. It can be said that the MiG-15 is the |

 |
| Born in 1961, also carrying the most basic features of Soviet weapon design, RPG-7 is quite effective, durable, cheap and easy to use. In total, to date, over 9 million RPG-7 anti-tank guns have been produced. Photo source: Fine. |
 |
| Although today's advanced anti-tank guns continue to appear to overshadow the RPG-7, its vitality on the battlefield is still immortal. Like the AK-47, the RPG-7 has been seen in almost every conflict since its inception and it deserves its honor. |
