Soviet Armies tended to have four divisions, NATO Corps probably average three when looked at from the big picture level -- but this is somewhat misleading, since NATO divisions and corps tend to be bigger than Soviet/WP divisions and armies. The two are essentially identical echelons -- in Soviet usage a Corps was an oversized division, and so isn't a one for one counterpart to a NATO Corps.
