I am trying to find out what weapons were used in Russian Civil War of 1917. Strangely, I was able to find only rifles and machine guns. There is no trace of tanks or airplanes, or chemical weapons, even if Russia had plenty of it in WWI. Right now it looks like somebody was deliberately avoiding the use of war machines, allowing the use only of guns.

If you were able to find any list with war machines used by Russians, please let me know.

The 1917 action was a revolution, not a war. Revolutions use banal forms of ethnic cleansing, dissident extermination, and population control, rather than kinetic military activity.

This is similar to the current forms of ethnic cleansing, dissident extermination, and population control in the United States. The US military failed in its primary function in 2020 and now its citizens are slated for extermination.
