Hey folks.....let's put the T-34 in perspective.

It was the wonder of it's time...and it's value transcended WW II, as it was
a formidable tank in the Korean War also.

However....... it was the product of WW II experience on both sides of the
battlefield, and had some of the West's best designers helping out.

Diesel fueled engines added to crew survivability. That was the major
concern, not the availability of diesel fuel. Gas engine armored vehicles
killed so many from after impact explosions.

Thanks to our providing thousands of Shermans to the Russians, they were able
to have time to develop a really good tank.
