Soviet tanks: T-64 of the 74th Guards Tank Regiment

I finally have the Yuri's Wolves set. This means I now have a full Soviet T-64 Tank Regiment.









For the Division, they will be supported by the 12th Separate Guards Recon Batallion of a Squadron of BMP-1 and a Squadron of BMP-2 




The T-64 which will serve in the Soviet Army.

I had a few hours last Saturday so while doing some errands, I picked up a box of Battlefront Minatures T-64 tanks.
I plan on building up a section of 4 tanks and having the 5th as a Command tank.
The first battle with these my son Ian used them up pretty quick. The T-72 Regiment fared better as he failed to use their missiles
For my 47th birthday May 2020, I bought another box of these. My plan is to now field these tanks as the 74th Guards Tank Regiment, in recognition of their great performance in the campaign of 2020 or 1985.
So the HQ section will be 1 tank, and 3 squadrons of 4 tanks.
This box has been built, I just need to add some paint and some commanders. 
As of June 2020, I have painted the additional 5 tanks, just need to add the painted commanders
The company of T-72s will be added to another unit.
I finally have the Yuris Wolves set, so I now have 15 T-64s with a BMP scout section!
