The T-34 is considered among the best tanks used in the 2nd World War. Although simple in design, this vehicle was extremely robust, combining high speed with excellent off-road performance and good armament. Additionally, it was considerably armor-plated, and this aspect considerably reduced the efficiency of the German anti-tank cannons, at least in the initial stages of the war. Moreover, it featured an accentuated hull shape, which increased its ballistic protection. Different, gradually improved versions of the T-34 were used throughout the war, giving a satisfactory account of themselves against Germany’s massive Tigers and Panthers.
