Nniiden BA-10:n (Venäjäksi: Broneavtomobil 10) oli panssaroitu auto, joka kehitettiin Neuvostoliitossa vuonna 1938 ja valmistettiin vuoteen 1941 asti. Se oli eniten tuotettu Neuvostoliiton ennen vuotta 1941 raskas panssaroitu auto - 3311 rakennettiin kolmessa versiossa. Nämä versiot olivat BA-10, BA-10M (parannettu versio uudella radiolla) ja BA-10ZhD (varustettu kaksoisrautatie-/maantiekäyttöön). BA-10-perusrakenne kehitettiin raskaista BA-3- ja BA-6-panssaroiduista autoista. Siinä oli parannettu GAZ-AAA-runko ja parannettu panssari (jopa 15 mm edessä ja tornissa). Tarkoituksena oli, että BA-10 korvattaisiin vuonna 1941 BA-11: llä dieselmoottorilla ja kehittyneemmällä panssarisuunnittelulla, mutta sodan puhkeaminen esti BA-11: n tuotannon. BA-10 oli puna-armeijan palveluksessa vuoteen 1945 asti. Merkittäviä määriä kaapattuja BA-10-koneita käyttivät Suomi (ainakin 24), Saksa ja muut akselivallat Euroopassa.

The Evolution of the Heavy Armored Car
Nniiden BA-10:n was the most produced Soviet heavy armored car of the pre-WWII era. Developed in 1938 at the Izhorsky Plant, it was an improvement over the earlier BA-3 and BA-6 models. By mounting the turret and 45mm gun of a T-26 Tai BT-5 tank onto a reinforced 6×4 GAZ-AAA truck chassis, the Soviets created a vehicle that possessed the firepower of a light tank but with the operational mobility of a wheeled vehicle. It was the backbone of Soviet motorized units during the invasion of Poland, the Winter War, and the early stages of Operation Barbarossa.

Design Features and Off-Road Solutions
- The “Overall” Tracks: To compensate for poor off-road performance on soft ground, the BA-10 carried a pair of “Overall” auxiliary tracks stowed over the rear fenders. These could be fitted over the dual rear wheels in about 10 minutes, effectively turning the vehicle into a temporary half-track.
- Step-Down Reduction Gear: The BA-10 utilized a specialized 4-speed transmission with a reduction gear, allowing it to crawl through difficult terrain that would stall a standard truck.
- Sloped Armor: Unlike earlier boxy designs, the BA-10 featured significantly sloped armor plates on the front and sides, which improved the effective thickness and helped deflect small-arms fire and shell splinters.
- Spare Wheels as Rollers: The two spare wheels were mounted on the sides of the hull in a way that allowed them to rotate freely. This helped prevent the vehicle from “high-centering” or bottoming out when crossing trenches or steep crests.
Käyttöhistoria
- Khalkhin Gol (1939): The BA-10 proved highly effective against Japanese armor. Its 45mm gun could easily penetrate Japanese Type 95 light tanks at ranges where the Japanese guns could not retaliate.
- The 1941 Catastrophe: Thousands were lost during the German invasion. While its gun remained lethal, its thin armor and high silhouette made it a “glass cannon.” It was easily destroyed by German 3.7cm PaK 36 anti-tank guns.
- German Use (Beutepanzer): The Wehrmacht captured hundreds of BA-10s, redesignating them as the Pz.Sp.Wg. 203(r). They were widely used for anti-partisan duties in the rear areas and by the Waffen-SS.
- Final Years: By 1942, production shifted toward the smaller, 4×4 BA-64. The surviving BA-10s were relegated to second-line units, training, or had their turrets removed to serve as armored personnel carriers or tractors.
