Soviet engineers focused on large caliber guns, thus their tanks have the highest damage values around. Because the smaller tanks couldn't compete with their counterpart's armor thickness, it was compensated for with acute armor slope values and thus greatly increased effective armor as well as the chance of a shell ricocheting. Very cold Russian winters forced the tank developers to use diesel engines lest their fuel freezes in the gas tank. This is also why Soviet tank engines have a much lower chance of catching on fire compared to their gasoline-powered counterparts.
Soviet light tanks are mostly the fastest around, and like most Soviet tanks, have a small frontal profile and sloped armor.
Medium tanks are the fastest and most maneuverable, but to make the tanks so compact engineers had to store ammo in very vulnerable places, thus increasing the chance of ammo rack detonation.
Soviet heavies have the best values for everything except accuracy; their frontal armor thickness and slope make them almost invulnerable from the front.
Soviet tank destroyers make up in brute firepower what they lack in accuracy.
Soviet artillery are renowned for the amount of splash damage their shells cause, making them heavy, but cumbersome, hitters.
