Russian tank T-34/85 (Mod. 1944) Zvezda-3687

Description

The T34 was a medium tank of Soviet manufacture that had its baptism of fire in 1941, during the German invasion of the USSR (in World War II).

In the early years of the conflict the T34 demonstrated its great superiority by combining firepower, speed and mobility exceptionally well. However, as the conflict progressed, its 76 mm gun began to be insufficient to knock out the enemy’s heavy tanks, hence the development of a version with 85 mm gun (the one reproduced in this Zvezda model).
