Tuhia he tomokanga mō tēnei wāhanga - I te tau 1978 ko te rōpū nei ko te 7th me te 8th Divisions, ko te Republican Guard Brigade, e rua nga rārangi commando, ko te 4th me te 15th Armoured Brigades, me ētahi wae tautoko. I whai wāhi nui te 4th Armoured Brigade ki te ārahi i te Saur Revolution
o te tau 1978. Ko tetahi tuhinga "Kabul Times" e waatea ana i taua waa e whakaahua ana i nga mea e kii ana ko nga whakanui a te 15th Armoured Division mo te Saur Revolution, me te whakaingoa i te ingoa o te rangatira o te wehenga hei Major Mohammed Amin. I timata te Corps ki te whakakaha i nga mahi, me tetahi o nga mea tuatahi, e pa ana ki tetahi parirau o te 7th Division, i puta i te waenganui o Mei 1979 i te huarahi mai i Gardez ki Khost. Ko te roopu katoa, pea 2000 pea te kaha, e kiia ana kua uru atu ki nga mujahadeen. E ai ki nga korero i tukua atu ratou i runga i te tikanga kia whakaaetia kia mau ki o raatau kakahu me o raatau patu ka uru atu ki te whawhai ki te kawanatanga.
