The BA-20 was developed in the Soviet Union in 1936 on the chassis of the GAZ-M1 civilian car as a reconnaissance vehicle. The BA-20s tires were designed to be resistant to bullets and shrapnel thanks to a simple method of filling them with sponge rubber. The BA-20 was used by the Red Army during the Soviet invasion of Poland later in 1939 and the Winter War against Finland in 1940, as well as in the early stages of World War II. Production ceased in 1941, with about 4,800 BA-20s built.
