1/35 T-34-85, WWII Soviet Medium Tank
ICM 1/35 T-34-85 is a plastic kit of the Soviet World War II medium tank. It has 225 parts and decals for four tanks in Germany in spring 1945. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The T-34 is one of the best-known tanks in history and was the most-produced tank of the Second World War. Designed at the bureau of Kharkov plant No. 183 under M. I. Koshkin, it entered series production in 1940 as the first mass-produced tank combining shell-proof armour, a powerful diesel engine and a long 76.2 mm gun. The final T-34-85 version, with an enlarged three-man turret and a more powerful 85 mm gun (D-5T, later S-53 and ZiS-S-53), was built from January 1944 and became the main Soviet medium tank until the end of the war. In 1944–1946 three plants produced 25,914 of them, most at plant No. 183 in Nizhny Tagil.
The ICM kit in 1/35 scale contains 225 parts according to the manufacturer, plus an instruction sheet with drawings and a decal sheet; the finished model measures 229 × 79 mm (length × height). The markings cover four tanks in Germany in spring 1945, including vehicles of the 7th Guards Tank Corps, the 7th Guards Mechanised Corps and the 4th Guards Tank Army.
A tank from the last weeks of the war suits a diorama of the fighting in Germany and stands out in any collection of Soviet armour. Moderate weathering emphasises the cast turret and running gear. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
