History: The T‑34/76 1943 model earned its place in history during Operation Citadel, the Battle of Kursk in July 1943. Facing the formidable German Panther and Tiger tanks, the Soviet 181st Guard Tank Brigade, among others, engaged in fierce tank battles, particularly at Prokhorovka. This was one of the largest tank engagements of WWII. The T‑34’s combination of firepower, armour, and mobility allowed it to remain a formidable opponent, ensuring its status as one of the most important tanks of the war.
