Other

BA-27

The White Army troops use BA-27 armored car in the final battle. It is an anachronism. The BA-27 was manufactured from 1928, after the Russian Civil War. Instead of real armament (it constists of 37-mm Hotchkiss gun and Degtyaryov DT machine gun) the movie armored car got two Maxim M1910s.
