This replica T34 recreates the improved and upgraded version of this remarkable tank, improvements made not in Russia, but in Germany. With the addition of the Notek light, new storage boxes and the bonus of direct radio communication, the T34 became a highly valued asset in the Nazi armoury. This superb model is finished in a three-color camouflage paint scheme, with large balkenkreuz markings for identification, and has also been fitted with a special set of side skirts. The 26-ton T-34/76 was a revolutionary and advanced tank design. It helped jerk the all-conquering Germans back to reality after they came face to face with them in the invasion of Russia! In fact, the T-34 was deemed so successful that the German forces at times put captured T-34s into their own national service, exacerbated as they were by shortages of their own tanks. When pressed into German service, the tanks received a number of modifications to make them more operable.

Features include:

• Rotating turret, elevating cannon and accurate hull.
• Painted, fitted, non-moving tracks on detailed non-rotating wheels.
• Realistic panel lines, antennas, access panels and surface details.
