T-34 variants

Production of T-34/76 began in 1940 till 1943 and T-34/85 from 1943 and followed after the WWII. Identification of T-34 variants is not easy if you think that more than 100.000 units  were built. They proceeded from different factories and had several  improvements during production. Also damaged tanks were rebuilt with new turrets and equipements after  battle. But each factory and year of production left their mark and distinctive features. Some of them are shown in this blog  with 1/72 scale models .
