The brigade had, however, a well equipped AT gun regiment.

On 1 March 1945, when the 2nd Tank regiment joned the 27th Tank Brigade it had still one T-34 and battalion of SU-76s at half strength. THe AT Regiment had been assigned to it at the same time with the 2nd Tank Regiment and was at full strength with 36 76.2 mm ZIS-3 AT guns.
