Default RE: t-34 recovered!


ORIGINAL: Panther F

That's the 1943 "Hexagon" turret version. T34's are cool, I really need to get some more Tamiya electronics and get mine up and running.
I just recently read the book "T-34 Medium Tank (1939-1943)" by Mikhail Baryantinskiy. Great book, up until then I never knew that the T-34 had so many variations to the basic design, and that you could identify where the vehicle was made by said variations.

Made me fall in love with the tank all over again.

If anyone is looking for a pretty good reference, pick up the book I just mentioned. It's a good read.
