Abstract
One aspect of the Anglo-American military aid to the Soviet Union under the Lend-Lease Act during World War II was the supply of several types of vessels that became part of the Red Fleet. In addition, the supplies included arms, engines, power generators, and components of naval equipment. The supplies significantly strengthened the Soviet Navy, both during and after the war.
