About this Model: The advanced Soviet T-34 tank design proved a nasty surprise to German troops when it was first confronted in the invasion of Russia in 1941. By the time of Operation Barbarossa, a total of 967 T-34s were available, though thousands more were to be manufactured by the end of WWII in improved forms. The T-34 Model 1941 featured an improved F-34 76.2mm gun with superior antitank performance than its predecessor. Captured T-34/76 was designated by the Germans as Panzerkampfwagen T-34 747(r). Large number of T-34/76 tanks was captured and pressed into service contrary to few T-34/85 tanks. T-34/76 was more often captured since from 1941 until mid 1943, Germans were still firmly established on the Eastern Front, while T-34/85 appeared on the battlefield in the winter of 1943 |
