1/35 T-34/76 (late 1943 production), WWII Soviet Medium Tank
ICM 1/35 T-34/76 (late 1943 production) is a plastic kit of the Soviet medium tank built in late 1943. It contains 192 parts and 6 marking options from 1944. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The T-34 was the most-produced tank of the Second World War. It was designed by the design bureau of Kharkov Plant No. 183 under M. I. Koshkin, and series production began in 1940. It was the first mass-produced medium tank with shell-proof armour, a powerful diesel engine and a long-barrelled 76.2 mm gun.
From 1942 the version with the improved hexagonal cast turret, nicknamed the “nut”, was produced, and in spring 1943 a commander’s cupola was added. The T-34 with the F-34 gun remained the main Soviet medium tank until the end of 1944, when the more heavily armed T-34-85 replaced it. In 1940–1944 six plants built 35,467 T-34/76 tanks.
The ICM kit has 192 parts; the finished model measures 189 × 75 mm. Six decal options from 1944 cover Belorussia (24th Tank Regiment, 46th Mechanised Brigade, and 18th Guards Tank Brigade, 3rd Guards Tank Corps), Sevastopol, Romania (4th Guards Mechanised Corps), Ukraine (10th Guards Ural Tank Corps) and one summer tank without a unit attribution. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
