The GAZ-4 model was produced in the USSR between 1933 and 1937, with a total production of around 10,500 units. The GAZ-4 was based on the sturdy chassis of the GAZ-A passenger car and the cab of the GAZ-AA truck, achieving a payload capacity of up to 500 kg. Most units went to the Red Army, where the vehicle served for transporting troops, equipment, and as a platform for auxiliary tasks both behind the front lines and in direct combat operations. In some cases, the GAZ-4 was used for transporting weapons or ammunition, forming an important supply link for Soviet forces during conflicts in the Far East as well as in maneuvers and military exercises before World War II.
