What weapons did they use in Operation Barbarossa?

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.

How many Soviets were killed and taken as Prisoners of War during Operation Barbarossa?

Almost 27 million Russians died in WW 2. And operation barbarossa was the bloodiest conflict in human history. My guess would b around 23-25 million. The numbers are rather sad really. Especially when u think about the unarmed charging Russians.

Why did the battle of Okinawa happen?

The Battle of Okinawa was the last land engagement of WW-2 and was

the final opportunity to polish the tactics and planning before the Allied

Forces invaded the Japanese homeland. The Ryukyus were considered

by Japan as Home Islands and every expectation was that they would be

defended like Iwo Jima was. The Tenth Army would land two Corps of

seven Divisions in the three month battle and would sustain 12,281 men

killed in action, they also lost 763 aircraft and 36 ships. Japanese losses

were 7,830 aircraft, 16 ships including the Battleship Yamato and about

110,071 men with 7,401 taken prisoner. The US commander, LtGeneral

Simon Bolivar Buckner was killed in this battle and for the first time in US

History a Marine, Roy S. Geiger commanded an Army. The Navy put 936

ships into the battle, fired 4,411 of their 16 inch shells and carried supplies

totaling 2,883,917 metric tons into the battle. Artillery support reached

wartime highs with almost 1.5 million rounds of 75mm or larger fired and

960,000 mortar shells fired. The troops were busy tossing 366,734 hand

grenades and firing of 27 million rounds of 30 calibre ammunition.

All figures cited above were taken from the after action report of the 10th

US Army, Ryukyus Campaign.
