According to Steven Zaloga the pre-war Soviet Army "possessed more armoured vehicles, and more tank units than the rest of the world combined" (my italics) Any articles relating to the various pre-war Tank Types used by the Soviet Armed Forces would be welcome here.

One the most famous and striking designs of the pre-war Soviet Tank Force was the "land Battleship", the multi-turreted T-35: Soviet-Empire.com - The Soviet T-35 Tank
And another article on the pre-war development of the Tank Force with a slant on changes made in 1939 and 1940. A Short History of Mechanized Units in the Red Army This is from AMVAS's site on the Soviet Army
