M-72 Motorcycle [USSR] (NO LONGER MAINTAINED)
M-72 was a Soviet domestically produced military motorcycle and was more or less a carbon copy of the German BMW R71. Its origin story differs between sources, but what is certain is that it was introduced into service not long before the start of the Great Patriotic War in 1941. Over 17,000 motorcycles were produced over the course of the war compared to around 30,000 of foreign produced motorcycles that were delivered to USSR as part of the lend-lease program.
Two-seater, very fast, but not very agile and controllable (not sure if it’s realistic, but I am still not that knowledgeable regarding the editor). Armed with a DP-27 machine gun (uses Maxim gun 200-round belts as a placeholder for now) for self-defense purposes. Otherwise, I made it simply to test if it is possible to make a motorcycle.
