The T-18 light tank (also called MS-1, Russian: Maliy Soprovozhdeniya-Perviy, "First Small [Vehicle for] Support") was the first Soviet-designed tank. Produced from 1928–31, it was based on the Renault FT, with the addition of a vertically sprung suspension.

During WW2, this tank was used as an armored gun shelter, dug into the ground.
