History
The Garford-Putilov armoured car entered service in 1915, serving across the Eastern Front in World War I. Known for its heavy firepower, it was effective in assaulting fortified positions but limited by slow speed and reduced mobility. The naval-type reinforced wheels improved durability and performance on challenging surfaces, offering a minor but valuable enhancement during operations. Despite its shortcomings, the Garford-Putilov influenced future armoured vehicle development.
