What support did the Soviet Union provide to resist US aggression and aid Korea?In fact, the Soviet Union was the biggest beneficiary of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and the help provided was insignificant compared to its benefits.

These help are divided into two aspects, material and immaterial.

Let's look at the material aspect.

The material aspect is mainly military assistance. First of all, the Soviet Air Force once fought in North Korea and served as air supremacy in part of the airspace. Fight directly with the U.S. Air Force. Secondly, the Soviet Union provided China with a large number of first-class equipment, the more famous ones are the MiG-15 fighters of the Air Force, the Katyusha rocket launchers of the Army, the T34 tanks, the AK47 submachine guns, etc. But it should be noted that most of the Soviet aid was in the form of loans, not in vain. Finally, it has helped build some first-class manufacturing and maintenance factories.

Immaterial aspects:

The non-material aspect is actually more significant, first of all, the strategic pressure on the Western world as a "silent giant". Because of the existence of this giant, the United States has not dared to expand the war and start an all-out war with China, and has not dared to devote all its forces to the Korean War. He must maintain a great military presence in Europe – or fear that a torrent of Soviet steel will overwhelm Western Europe at any time. This was the greatest and greatest help of the Soviet Union in its fight against the United States and aid Korea. Eisenhower once tried to expand the war against China, but was urgently stopped by people of insight and allies in the United States, and had to return to the negotiating table. Secondly, with the help of politics and the United Nations, the United States was able to form a coalition ** because of the absence of the Soviet Union. Then the Soviet Union returned to the United Nations, through which the Soviet Union helped China politically and morally.
