The T-34/85 is widely regarded as a highly effective medium tank from World War II, reflecting pragmatic Soviet engineering and mass-production methods. With production numbers exceeding 35,000, the type was instrumental in shifting armoured balance on the Eastern Front and became a staple of wartime manufacturing efficiency.
Rather than complex engineering, the T-34/85 focused on simplicity to enable rapid production. That approach allowed large numbers to be fielded quickly, and the adoption of the 85mm gun represented a clear upgrade over earlier armaments, improving performance against heavier German tanks such as the Tiger and Panther.
Italeri's 1/72 kit recreates the T-34/85 with a balance of accuracy and ease of build, ideal for shelf display or tabletop use. The set features a display stand and stickers for marking options, and it includes a bonus World of Tanks code redeemable on European and American servers for added gaming value.
