The MS-1 is the first light tank in the USSR Tech Tree. With similar specifications to the Leichttraktor, it holds two advantages; it has thicker armour and offers a good selection of guns. The 23mm VJa is an especially efficient gun for it's tier. Although slow and hard to maneuver (especially when its brand new), it can take a beating and still pack a punch. MS-1 are sometimes spotted in a platoon with considerably higher tier tanks. When this occurs, the unfortunate MS-1 becomes the de-facto primary target for the entire team and is hunted down without remorse. It leads to SU-18 SPG, AT-1 tank destroyer, T-26 and BT-2 light tank.

Historical Info
The Soviets used a 35HP truck engine, which in reality was a direct copy of an Italian FIAT engine supplied by the Moscow AMO Factory, and the gun selected was a modified copy of the French 37-mm Puteaux SA 18 cannon. The first prototype was ready by 1927 and was named the T-16. The T-16 was deemed a failure as it had problems with both frequent transmission failure and it's inability to cross trenches more than 1.5 meters wide. The T-16's maneuverability was only marginally better than that of the Renault. Meanwhile, the КБ ОАТ drew up plans for an improved version of the T-16 which was accepted for production in July as the T-18, with the tank additionally noted as an MC-1 ("low maintenance type 1").
The first Soviet tank adopted for serial production, 959 vehicles were produced from 1928 through 1931.
