![when I'm in a WORST TAKES ON ARMY EQUIPMENT competition and my opponent is GENERAL KULIK Kulik refused to endorse the production of the innovative Katyusha rocket artillery system, stating "What the hell do we need rocket artillery for? The main thing is the horse-drawn gun."[8] Kulik also disparaged the use of minefields as a defensive measure, considering this to be at odds with a properly aggressive strategy and terming minefields "a weapon of the weak." This decision allowed for the essentially free movement of German forces across Russian defensive lines during Operation Barbarossa Kulik similarly scorned the German issue of the MP-40 submachine gun, stating that it encouraged inaccuracy and excessive ammunition consumption among the rank and file. He forbade the issue of the submachine gun PPD-40 to his units, stating that it was only suitable as a police weapon. after widespread demand overruled Kulik's restrictions, a simple modification of the manufacturing process for the PPD-40 produced the PPSh-41 Kulik criticized Marshal Voroshilov's endorsement of the production of the T-34 tank and his namesake KV-1 tanks, both of which would prove instrumental to the survival of the USSR. Kulik interfered with the armament of the T-34 and KV-1 tanks. Though it was both more effective and cheaper than the L-11 gun then in use, Kulik opposed the adoption of the F-34 gun It became apparent that the L-11 could not reliably penetrate even the lightly armored Panzer III. This eventually necessitated a rushed retrofit of the KV-1 and T-34's gun in the midst of the German invasion](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/669/672/990.jpg "How to lead your army using tactics from the Crimean War | History Memes")
