What weapons did they use in Operation Barbarossa?

Answer 1

The Blitzkreig moves east in the summer of 1941: It depends heavily on the rapid deployment of panzer, armoured , forces supported by aircraft & artillery. The main tank was still the Pzkw III and much of the artillery was horse drawn, & I don't suppose many if any horses ever saw German soil again. The Stuka, the Ju 87, was used in the close support role and as the Russians had no fighters of any calibre at this time it was very successful. Strategic bombing was by the Heinkel 111 & the Ju 88. I cannot really comment on the Russian equipment at the time, but there was no tank of any great importance at that time & the infantry was poorly supported in many instances. There were vast numbers of Soviet forces taken prisoner in great encircling movements by the Germans & their allies, Italy & Rumania principly.
