1/35 T34/85 Zavod 112 Mod. 1944
Italeri 1/35 T-34/85 Zavod 112 Mod. 1944 is a 1/35th scale plastic model construction kit of the famous Soviet medium tank. Variant from 1944, produced by Zavod factory no. 112, was one of the most widespread versions of this iconic machine, which became a symbol of the Red Army's victory in World War II. The model offers a realistic treatment of the hull, turret and running gear.
The T-34/85 was created as a direct response to the German Tiger and Panther tanks, which in 1943 outclassed the original T-34/76 in both firepower and armour. The new version received a more spacious turret with a more powerful 85mm ZiS-S-53 gun, which greatly increased its combat effectiveness. Production began at several plants, with the Zavod No. 112 "Krasnoye Sormovo" plant being one of the most important producers. Its machines were characterized by distinctive details such as a one-piece turret with a thicker casting surface and a typical rear hull arrangement.
The T-34/85 Mod. 1944 model from the production of Plant 112 took part in the last major Red Army offensives - from Belarus to Berlin - and remained in service for many years after the war in many countries around the world. Its reliability and simplicity of construction made it one of the most successful tanks in history.
Italeri's 1/35th scale kit features a detailed model of this classic version with a correctly shaped turret, realistic running gear, fine welds and authentic decals. The model is an ideal choice for those interested in the Eastern Front of WWII and provides a great basis for both a clean build and a diorama of 1944-1945.
The package does not include the paint or glue needed for assembly.
