Historical Information and Use

The T-34/76 tank was the main Soviet medium tank during World War II. The 1941 version, equipped with a cast turret, was the result of technological development and efforts to increase production under wartime conditions. These tanks took part in key battles on the Eastern Front – gaining fame during the defense of Moscow, the battles of Stalingrad, Kursk, and Operation Bagration. The T-34/76 was widely used from 1940 to 1944 and was also operated by Soviet allied forces, including the Polish Army in the East. The cast turret was a recognizable feature of early T-34s and significantly improved crew protection.
