The Soviet T-34 medium tank needs no introduction, being the most famous tank ever built especially as has seen service across the globe throughout the twentieth centuryâs most brutal wars. However, despite this fame, little has been written about its design changes. While most tank enthusiasts can differentiate between the âT-34/76â and the âT-34-85â, identifying different factory production batches has proven more elusive. Until now. With nearly six hundred photographs, mostly taken by soldiers who both operated and fought against the T-34, this book seeks to catalogue and contextualise even the subtlest details to create a true âT-34 continuumâ. The book begins with the antecedents of the T-34, the ill-fated BT âfast tankâ series and the influence of the traumatic Spanish Civil War before moving to an in-depth look at the T-34âs prototypes. After this, every factory production change is catalogued and contextualised, with never-before-seen photographs and stunning technical drawings. Furthermore, four battle stories are also integrated to explain the changing battle context when major production changes take place. The production story is completed with sections on the T-34âs post-war production (and modification) by Czechoslovakia, Poland, and the Peopleâs Republic of China, as well as T-34 variants.
