The T-34-85 was the definitive Soviet medium tank of the war's final years, mounting the powerful 85mm ZiS-S-53 gun in a roomier three-man turret that finally matched late-war German armour on more even terms. This kit portrays the Model 1944 production standard as built at Factory No.183, the Ural Tank Factory ("UTZ"), evacuated to Nizhny Tagil, reflecting the specific hull and turret detail changes of that plant's late-war output. Dragon's kit uses slide-mould technology to reproduce crisp weld seams, the distinctive cast turret texture, and finely detailed hatches, with accurate road wheel and track options for the period. The kit includes clean, logically engineered sprues, posable turret hatches, and decals for period Soviet markings. A strong centrepiece for any Eastern Front 1944-45 armour collection, and a natural pairing with Dragon's Soviet infantry and tank-rider figure sets.
