It first saw combat in the summer of 1941, and its qualities soon set it apart from other medium tanks of the period.

The projects featured are a T-34/76 from Factory 112, an Early T-34/76 Model 1943 recovered from a swamp, a captured STZ T-34/76 in service with Italian Army, and a German 747(r)-3 conversion on the Western Front.
