Soviet and Eastern European Trucks

Trucks designed and built in the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia, many of them for state use and for export across the Eastern bloc. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the vehicle a Soviet, Russian or Czech truck. It excludes Western European and North American trucks. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
