Here is an excellent resource provided by the TO&E group...

http://wio.ru/tank/capt/capt.htm

It provides a listing of German equipment used by Russian units, but it also lists the variety of Russian/Allied AFVs used during combat, which I think is ever more valuable as a gamer, since it allows us a view into the actual organizations of combat units, rather than relying on TO&E lists that are fine for what they are, but usually did not reflect the actual situation on the sharp end of the stick...

I don't really trust that first entry - 13 Panzers in operational use on Jun27, 1941?

...could be. The Soviets did have some German tanks before hostilities. I'm not saying they were the ones that are stated to be used during the first week of Barbarossa...
