By decree of the State Defense Committee of March 6, 1942, the new combat vehicle was adopted by the Red Army under the symbolT-70. Two days later, the State Defense Committee issued a decree on the production of the tank, according to which factories No. 37 and No. 38 were involved in its production from April.
According to some tank commanders, the T-70 was the best suited for pursuing a retreating enemy, which became relevant in 1943. The reliability of the T-70's power plant and chassis was higher than that of the T-34, which made it possible to make long marches.
The T-70 light tank and its improved version T-70M were in service with tank brigades and regiments of the so-called mixed organization, together with the T-34 medium tank. The brigade had 32 T-34 tanks and 21 T-70 tanks. Such brigades could be part of tank and mechanized corps or be separate.
