I oni su kao dio reformi vojske provedene 2008. godine, osnovani Predsjedničkim dekretom Br. 1144, potpisanim 20. 09. 2010. godine. Nastaju od bivšeg Moskovskog i Lenjingradskog vojnog okruga te Specijalne regije Kaliningrad. Po geografskoj veličini su četvrti od pet okruga. Sjedište okruga je zgradi Generalštaba u Sainkt Peterburgu.

      It is one of the five military districts of the Russian Armed Forces, with its jurisdiction primarily within the western central region of European Russia. The Western Military District was created as part of the 2008 military reforms, and founded by Presidential Decree №1144 signed on September 20, 2010, as an amalgamation of the Moscow Military District, Leningrad Military District and Kaliningrad Special Region.  The Western Military District is the second smallest military district in Russia by geographic size. The district contains 26 federal subjects of Russia. The Western Military District is headquartered in the General Staff Building in Saint Petersburg.

      1. gardijska tenkovska armija (1-я гвардейская танковая Краснознамённая армия) ponovno je stvorena 13. studenog 2014. u skladu s dekretom Predsjednika Ruske Federacije. Armijska komanda ponovno je stvorena u vezi s preseljenjem komande 20. gardijske kombinirane armije na granicu s Ukrajinom. Stvaranje armije olakšalo je upravljanje jedinicama i formacijama stacioniranim u blizini Moskve, što je ranije izazivalo poteškoće zbog činjenice da se sjedište Zapadnog vojnog okruga nalazilo u Sankt Peterburgu. Novoj vojnoj formaciji prve su pristupile 4. gardijska tenkovska i 2. gardijska motorizirana streljačka divizija.

      The 1st Guards Tank Army (1-я гвардейская танковая Краснознамённая армия) was recreated on November 13, 2014 in accordance with the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation. The army administration was recreated in connection with the relocation of the administration of the 20th Guards Combined Arms Army to the border with Ukraine. The creation of the Army facilitated the management of units and formations stationed near Moscow, which had previously caused difficulties due to the fact that the headquarters of the Western Military District was located in St. Petersburg. The 4th Guards Tank and 2nd Guards Motorized Rifle Divisions were the first to join the new military association.
