 | #4 Another simple question. What modification of T-34 is this one?  That sort of T-34s were used during the battle for Moscow in 1941 and some of them in the Kursk battle (relatively low amount) Regards, Alex |

 Other photos: http://tanksinmoscow.com/Poklon/Foto2/T-46_01.htm It was thought to replace T-26 in troops and have wheeled engine like BTs. but it appeared tobe too complicated and only 4 vehicles were built.   Regards, Alex | |

 It's really "tank-hunter" equipped with the 57mm gun. Its main disadvantage was too weak efficiency against infantry, what caused removing this tank from battlefield. Regards, Alex | |

| #6 This unusual tank was hit during the Winter War. rather large amount of those vehicles were built (~50). But been very secret they were used too seldom. The most glorious usage was agaisnt Finland, where some vehicles were lost. Soviet command didn't used (or used in very limited scale) these vehicles against Germans. Fate of residual vehicles is unknown....  Another photo  Last edited by AMVAS; 17-12-2006 at 03:23 PM. |

Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?
