307229 Modeler 1/72 Tank of world war II 34-76

From the first hours of the war, the T-34 tanks took part in the battles and showed their unsurpassed fighting qualities. The enemy, knowing nothing about our new tank, was not ready to meet him on the battlefields. Its main tanks are T-IIIand T-IVogley successfully fight with our "thirty-four", far superior to their permeability, armor thickness and armor-piercing guns. German guns did not penetrate the armor of our tanks, while the T-34 could shoot German cars with the maximum distance of a direct shot. It took almost two years before the Germans were able to oppose our tanks their, more or less equivalent in power of fire and armor, the machine.

the T-34, admittedly the best tank of world war II – was the main and in fact the only medium tank of the Soviet Army throughout the great Patriotic war. Its advantages were achieved thanks to the rational form of the armor body, strong armament (76-mm long-barrel gun – an innovation for medium tanks of that time) and the installation of a diesel engine. The latter circumstance reduced the possibility of a fire in the tank and increased the power reserve. Independent suspension contributed to the high speed of cross-country movement, and wide tracks and low specific pressure on the ground provided good permeability. The simple design of the tank facilitated mass production and repair.

"thirty-Four" continuously improved and improved. In 1942, the design Bureau of the plant No. 183 developed a modification of the T-34 with a new cast tower of elongated shape.
