1. gardová tanková armáda

(1-я гвардейская танковая армия)


On 27 May 1946, it was formed by renaming the original 1st Guards Tank Army - 1st Guards Mechanized Army. As a result of changes in the organization of tank armies, corps and divisions, the 1st Guards Mechanized Army was renamed again on 29 April 1957 as the 1st Guards Tank Army (2nd Formation). Its composition and deployment did not change significantly. It continued to operate on the territory of the German Democratic Republic with its headquarters in the city of Dresden. From this garrison, its troops crossed the border into Czechoslovakia on 21 August 1968, and faithfully occupied, along with other Warsaw Pact troops, the territory of its ally in Operation Danube.


Even before the entry of the "friendly armies" into the territory of Czechoslovakia, the army was awarded the Order of the Red Banner on 22 February 1968, quoting from a contemporary document:for great merits in the struggle for the defence of the Soviet homeland, achievements in combat and political training, and on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the formation of the Soviet army and navy.


Units and divisions of the Army participated in the clean-up of the aftermath of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in April 1986 and the following months.


After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1992, the 1st Guards Tank Army survived only two years in the new system of the Russian Federation, and was disbanded in 1994.
