This was a version of the T-34 tank. The actual difference between
the T-34 and T-34/85 was that the latter was fitted with a new turret with a 85mm gun and
a five-stage gear-box. The tank was widely used during the Second World War and is still in service with some countries
to the present day. The T-34/85 was manufactured under licence in Poland, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia.
