T-34/85 Post WWII?
When was this tank made? During or after WWII? The road wheels make me think its post WWII. also the cupola and the ventilator cover.

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
It has the "Starfish" pattern wheels, which would suggest post war.

some mix of the two, or just google pictures of T-34/85s
It says there is no definite way to tell for sure, yet it is most likely 46.

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
The T-34/85 was produced between 1941 and 1946. It´s hard so say if the tank on your picture was in or post war. Maybe you find out anything here:

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
In my country tank T-34 was a heroe during world war 2! This tank was made in world war 2 not after because we always stay tanks which fight in battles as symbols of world war 2! This tank fighted in battles!

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
Looks like a 46 model. Some did take part in the war in 45' but towards the end.

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
It would be really hard to say from just the photo. The Soviets frequently rebuild tanks from existing hulls, upgrade older models in overhaul, etc. This one appears to be a late war build, or possibly early post war. The road wheels, if original, would indicate post war. The hull is definitely a late war production one not a rebuild. The turret appears to be the later standard with two cast mushroom ventilators on the back. It also has the patch for the electric traverse system on it.

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
I agree with T.A.
Prob a mixture of the two?

Re: T-34/85 Post WWII?
possibly and then what if the armor is sent overseas to the mideast ? Syria had loads of these, I've got the pics to prove that in their futile efforts to overrun Israel
