1. GAZ-AA
Medium-duty Soviet truck, created back in 1932. The car used rear-wheel drive and a manual transmission. A car was developed on the basis of a Ford Model AA truck bought in America, as even the name directly indicates. The carrying capacity was the same as that of the "American" - 1.5 tons. In the future, the car became the basis for new Soviet developments. Total released 834 289 such machines.
2. ZIS-150 and ZIS-151
The Soviet heavy-duty truck was developed in 1944 and put into mass production in 1947. The 150th was produced for 10 years, until it was replaced by an updated model - the ZIS-164.

The truck was created primarily for the needs of the army. With two tanks of 150 liters per 100 km, the ZIS-151 consumed 42 liters of fuel. But its carrying capacity was 4.5 tons. In total, 149,600 such machines were produced in the USSR. However, if we take into account the numerous modifications based on the 151st, then the number of trucks produced exceeds 800 thousand copies.
3. GAZ-52
The basis for this truck was the GAZ-51 and GAZ-53. As a result, a medium-duty vehicle with a rear-wheel drive with a carrying capacity of up to 2.5 tons was obtained.

At the same time, the truck "ate" up to 21 liters of fuel per 100 km of the way. Subsequently, many more modifications of the GAZ-52 were developed and produced in small and large series. In total, the number of released models exceeds the figure in 2 million machines.

The famous all-wheel drive large-capacity off-road truck. The machine was developed back in 1964. First of all, the car was created for the needs of the Soviet army. However, the Ural was also used in the national economy. With tank volumes of 360 liters, the car consumed 48 liters of fuel per 100 km. For this, the drivers called the "Ural" a glutton. The carrying capacity of the machine is 4.5 tons. During the existence of the USSR, it was collected 374 548 such cars.
5. ZIL-130
Truck legend of the Soviet Union. The 130th was produced from 1962 to 2010, becoming one of the few Soviet trucks that survived the collapse of the country. As a result, the truck became one of the most massive in the history of the USSR. It will be difficult to find an area of the national economy or the army where the 130s would not find application. The machine with rear-wheel drive and on two axles was capable of lifting up to 6 tons. Total released 3 388 312 such beauties.
