If you are not looking for a particular unit those armoured unit insignia would have also been on the thousands of soft skin vehicles in those units (maybe as many as ten trucks/jeeps for every tank).

Russian soft skins appear to have almost no markings except for a few numbers on the door.

Case in point about my comments on armoured units above. From your marking link this Chevrolet with the elephant is a soft skin vehicle belonging to the 14th Guards Mechanised Brigade.

The others demonstrate the sparse markings, most photos show no markings visible at all on Russian vehicles. They often have those detachable signs on the sides - perhaps these were pool vehicles just given temporary identification for particular jobs. Maybe they had large central workshops where units just exchanged vehicles and they did not "own" their personal vehicles so had no unit markings?
