The T-34/76 Mod.1941 was one type of armored vehicle that the Red Army used to defend the city of Leningrad in the Baltic during the destructive siege by German forces of Army Group North. This grim blockade was to grind on for 872 days from 8 September 1941 onwards. This vehicle portrays one of the defenders of Leningrad in the 1942-42 period. Although the unit the tank belongs to hasn’t been identified, it carries a most distinctive camouflage scheme. The base green paint is over-painted in white bands and spots designed to help it blend into the background during winter fighting. This paint scheme has been realistically applied. For modelers seeking a model of the famous Russian T-34, this Mod.1941 variant is an outstanding specimen!
Designed to replace the Soviet BT-5, BT-7 and T-26 infantry tanks, the T-34 was produced between 1940 and 1958. The T-34 is often regarded as one of the most successful and most influential tanks of the era. It was WWII's most highly produced tank and history's second most highly produced tank. The T-34 had a powerful engine, wide tracks and heavy armor. It was continuously refined, and by 1944 had gained a more powerful 85mm gun and a superior three-man turret design. The success of the T-34 can be measured in part by its longevity-by 1996, T-34s were still serving in 27 nations around the world. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
Dragon's 1:72 scale T-34 medium tanks are true collector's pieces. The top portion of the model's hull and turret is constructed entirely of diecast plastic, which allows for the greatest possible detail, and the lower hull is constructed of diecast metal. Each release features a 360-degree rotating turret with elevating cannon and a variety of battlefield equipment configurations separately attached to the hull, such as tow cables, spare tracks and tools. The series includes early variants as well as mid-war production variants with notable upgrades such as a commander's cupola and a larger mid-war hexagonal shaped cast turret.
