If you mean T-34?? After the earliest turrets, casting eventually proved 'easier' for the Soviets than rolled plate or welding. Peter Samsonov's...
Very good to see you here, J. ~A
And, as you imply, they'd never want to. The fact it took them until '43-44 to begin officially committing to 'Total War' policies always sticks...

That Septic F35 exercise the other day made for some nice shots. 52 (I think) being put up at once at Hill AFB. What? c.$100m a pop? Sci-Fi......

Bit of a fan of the rather rare tracked (not SP) T16 or 17 (e1? I forget) carriage. Duckbilled & 'Medium' bogies, some deployed in Manila... I...
Look towards 25 year etc. civil 'Faithful Service' medal miniatures. Same pattern & same colour ribbon. Various classes. A few pictures out there...
