Mikhail Dratvin (Russian: Михаил Иванович Дратвин ; 21 November 1897, in Ekimovo 12 December 1953, in Moscow) was a Soviet lieutenant general.
 Dratvin's military career began when he was drafted into the army of the Russian Empire during World War I.
 He subsequently became an expert in the fields of military intelligence and signals, teaching at a number of Soviet military academies and acting as a senior military advisor to the government of China during the Warlord Era and the Second Sino-Japanese War.
 He fought in World War II and served as a functionary of the Soviet Military Administration in Germany at the conclusion of the war.
The Soviet Military Administration in Germany (Russian: Советская военная администрация в Германии, СВАГ ; "Sovyetskaya Voyennaya Administratsya v Germanii", SVAG; German: "Sowjetische Militäradministration in Deutschland" , SMAD) was the Soviet military government, headquartered in Berlin-Karlshorst, that directly ruled the Soviet occupation zone of Germany from the German surrender in May 1945 until after the establishment of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) in October 1949.
Soviet Military Power was a Public Diplomacy publication of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), which provided an estimate of the military strategy and capabilities of the Soviet Union during the final years of the Cold War, ostensibly to alert the U.S. public to the significant military capabilities of the Soviet Armed Forces.
 First published in early October, 1981, it became an annual publication from 1983 until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.
 Already in draft as the Soviet Union collapsed, the 1991 version was retitled "Military Forces in Transition".
 In addition to the majority English version, "Soviet Military Power" was translated, printed, and disseminated in a variety of languages, including German, French, Japanese, Italian and Spanish.
John T. Hughes (1928-1992) was an intelligence officer of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency, specializing in Soviet military capabilities and best known for his nationally televised briefing on the removal of Soviet missiles in Cuba, during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
 A past photo analyst, Hughes had been part of the famous U-2 collection program from the earliest days of its operation.
 Over the years he personally briefed Presidents John F. Kennedy, Gerald R. Ford, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan on highly classified photographs of Soviet military installations and other sensitive security matters.
 Hughes guided DIA’s collection and analysis, and served as a principal intelligence adviser to the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Ivan Khristoforovich Bagramyan (Armenian: Հովհաննես Քրիստափորի Բաղրամյան ; Russian: Ива́н Христофо́рович Баграмя́н ), also known as Hovhannes Khachaturi Baghramyan (Armenian: Հովհաննես Խաչատուրի (alternatively, Քրիստափորի, Kristapori) Բաղրամյան ; Russian: Оване́с Хачату́рович Баграмя́н ) (2 December [O.S. 20 November] 1897 – 21 September 1982), was a Soviet military commander and Marshal of the Soviet Union of Armenian origin.
 During World War II, Bagramyan was the first non-Slavic military officer to become a commander of a Front.
 He was among several Armenians in the Soviet Army who held the highest proportion of high-ranking officers in the Soviet military during the war.
Korean Air Lines Flight 007 (also known as KAL007 and KE007) was a scheduled Korean Air Lines flight from New York City to Seoul via Anchorage, Alaska.
 On September 1, 1983, the South Korean airliner serving the flight was shot down by a Soviet Su-15 interceptor.
 The Boeing 747 airliner was en route from Anchorage to Seoul, but deviated from its original planned route and flew through Soviet prohibited airspace around the time of a U.S. aerial reconnaissance mission.
 The Soviet Air Force treated the unidentified aircraft as an intruding U.S. spy plane, and proceeded to destroy it with air-to-air missiles, after firing warning shots which were likely not seen by the KAL pilots.
 The Korean airliner eventually crashed in the sea near Moneron Island west of Sakhalin in the Sea of Japan.
 All 269 passengers and crew aboard were killed, including Larry McDonald, a Representative from Georgia in the United States House of Representatives.
 The Soviets found the wreckage under the sea on September 15, and found the flight recorders in October, but this information was kept secret until 1993.
Export variants of Soviet military equipment were versions of Soviet military equipment (armored vehicles, airplanes, missiles) of significantly inferior capability to the original designs and intended only for export.
 Monkey model was the unofficial designation given by the Soviet Military to such variants.
 The monkey model was exported with the same or a similar designation as the original Soviet design but in fact it lacked many of the advanced or expensive features of the original.
Nikolai Vasilyevich Ogarkov (Russian: Николай Васильевич Огарков ; 30 October 1917 in the village of Molokovo, Tver Governorate – 23 January 1994) was a prominent Soviet military personality.
 He was promoted to Marshal of the Soviet Union in 1977.
 Between 1977 and 1984, he was Chief of the General Staff of the USSR.
 He became widely known in the West when he became the Soviet military's spokesman following the shootdown of Korean Air Lines Flight 007 near Moneron Island in September 1983.
 He was dismissed as Chief of the General Staff on 6 September 1984.
The Soviet–Lithuanian Mutual Assistance Treaty (Lithuanian: "Lietuvos-Sovietų Sąjungos savitarpio pagalbos sutartis" ) was a bilateral treaty signed between the Soviet Union and Lithuania on October 10, 1939.
 According to provisions outlined in the treaty, Lithuania would acquire about one fifth of the Vilnius Region, including Lithuania's historical capital, Vilnius, and in exchange would allow five Soviet military bases with 20,000 troops to be established across Lithuania.
 In essence the treaty with Lithuania was very similar to the treaties that the Soviet Union signed with Estonia on September 28, and with Latvia on October 5.
 According to official Soviet sources, the Soviet military was strengthening the defenses of a weak nation against possible attacks by Nazi Germany.
 The treaty provided that Lithuania's sovereignty would not be affected.
 However, in reality the treaty opened the door for the first Soviet occupation of Lithuania and was described by "The New York Times" as "virtual sacrifice of independence."
