Hi everyone!

I am going through the Soviet units across the editor and I stumbled into the "Destroyer Anti-Tank Brigades" (05556). As I could not find any correspondence in the Russian/Soviet military literature, I finally discovered that in Russian they were called "istrebitelʹnaja brigada" (which roughly translates as "hunter", much like the German "J�ger"). To avoid confusion with the US Tank Destroyers, wouldn't be better to rename those units as "Tank-hunter Brigade(s)"?

Thanks!

EDIT: grammar and typos

Actually istrebitel translates as: fighter/exterminator/destroyer

"istrebitelʹnaja brigada" its a short name. About naming of these units there is separate NKO order -
