Flames of War: Finnish SMG Platoon (Late-War)

The Finns found the submachine-gun very handy in the close confines of forest combat. As more Suomi and captured Soviet PPSh submachine-guns have become available, whole platoons have been equipped with them.

The Jääkäri were Finland’s elite light infantry. The Jääkäri troops were initially Finnish volunteers served with the Germans, training as Jägers (elite light infantry), during World War One as the Royal Prussian 27th Jäger Battalion. They fought on the northern flank of the eastern front from 1916.

At the outbreak of the Civil War in Finland, Jägers were released from German service and 2,000 volunteers were soon fighting to put down the communists. Their contribution to the White victory and Finnish independence was critical. They provided crucial leadership and training to the mostly green troops of the Civil War.

The Jääkäri continued their role as elite light infantry during the Winter and Continuation Wars.The Jääkäri (yay-kah-ree, or hunters) scout ahead and provide flank security. Many Finnish soldiers are hunters and woodsmen, familiar with the country and completely at home in it. Their ability to advance silently and undetected is remarkable. They are aggressively led and their role is as much assault as reconnaissance.

This package contains one Formation Suomi SMG Team, one Unit Leader Suomi SMG Team, six Suomi SMG Teams, one Lahti Anti-tank Rifle Team, one Panzerschreck Anti-tank Team, one 50mm Mortar Team (Mid-War).
