It took place between October 1941 and January 1942. The Soviet defensive effort frustrated Hitler's attack on Moscow, capital of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) and the largest Soviet city. Moscow was one of the primary military and political objectives for Axis forces in their invasion of the Soviet Union. The German strategic offensive named Operation Typhoon was planned to conduct two pincer offensives, one to the north of Moscow against the Kalinin Front by the 3rd and 4th Panzer Armies, simultaneously severing the Moscow–Leningrad railway, and another to the south of Moscow Oblast against the Western Front south of Tula, by the 2nd Panzer Army, while the 4th Army advanced directly towards Moscow from the west. A separate operational German plan, codenamed Operation Wotan, was included in the final phase of the German offensive. Initially, the Soviet forces conducted a strategic defence of the Moscow Oblast by constructing three defensive belts, deploying newly raised reserve armies, and bringing troops from the Siberian and Far Eastern Military Districts. Subsequently, as the German offensives were halted, a Soviet strategic counter-offensive and smaller-scale offensive operations were executed to force the German armies back to the positions around the cities of Oryol, Vyazma and Vitebsk, nearly surrounding three German armies in the process. • Ignore tags: Ukraine Ukrainian forces military conflict Donetsk Luhansk Republic Putin Obama Poroshenko Russia Russian Army Russian Military Power Strong Special Force Forced Air Airborne troops NAVY Marines helicopter MIG 29 SU T-70 T-72 T-90 Kalashnikov AK-74 AK47 SVD guns tank panzer truck submarine war warrior conflict fire BMP BMD VDV USA China Korea Germany Poland Ukraine Serbia France Canada Italy Spain Turkey Arabic Israel Украина Украинская Россия Российская Армия Вооружение Вооруженные Силы специального назначения спецназ гру вв внутренние войска группа захвата захват альфа омон собр воздушно-десантные войска ВДВ РВСН Морская пехота ЖДВ ДШБ Инженерные войска ГРАУ Ракетно-артиллеристские войска Танковый войска Военно-морской флот ВМФ Военно-воздушные силы ВВС МЧС полиция выставка морпех достижения техника технологии солдат солдаты будущего рядовой офицер воин полигон танковый биатлон Шойгу учения ТТХ АК-113 АК-74 Михаил Калашников СВД Снайперская винтовка Драгунова АН-12 Руслан Самолет Самолеты Вертолет Вертолеты МиГ 29 СУ конфликт БМП БМД танк танки подводная лодка корабль авианосец АПЛ палубник бомбардировка обстрел бомбардировщик тополь м ядерное оружие достижения атомное оружие огнестрельное оружие авто грузовики урал камаз Т-72 Т-90 выступления десант эсминец вторая мировая война великая отечественная война парад победы 9 мая марш военный песня лет 1941 1942 1943 1944 1945 ВОВ ветераны НКВД СС Вермахт документальный фильм Выставка российской военной техники Нижний Тагил Москва
