1-100 T-34-76 (1942-1944 versions)

T-34-76 model 1942, model 1943 & model 1944
This covers all of the late 76mm versions with the “Hex” turrets, plus some “flat” cast and welded turrets.
All 1944 vehicles have the option of smokescreen oil tanks on the hull rear.
All STZ vehicles have no fuel tanks.
All vehicles can use either their named or factory-UZTM turrets. (UZTM only made turrets.)
There is obviously scope for further mix-and-match pairings.
* T34-76 factory-183 1942 early (cast steel wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, plain hull, early mg mount. Early Hex turret.)
* T34-76 factory-183 1942 mid (Outer original wheels, centre cast steel wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, plain hull, late mg mount. Early Hex turret.)
* T34-76 factory-183 1942 late (Outer half-spider wheels, centre cast steel wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, handrails, deflector strip, late mg mount, rear box fuel tanks. Hex turret with handrails.)
* T34-76 factory-183 1943 early (Outer half-spider wheels, centre cast steel wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, handrails, deflector strip, late mg mount, 3x side round fuel tanks. Stamped turret with handrails.)
* T34-76 factory-183 1943 late (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, handrails, deflector strip, late mg mount, 3x side round fuel tanks. Stamped turret with handrails.)
* T34-76 factory-183 1944 early (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, handrails, deflector strip, late mg mount, 3x side round fuel tanks. Hex turret with cupola and handrails.)
* T34-76 factory-112 1942 early (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, plain hull, early mg mount. Cast Flat turret.)
* T34-76 factory-112 1942 late (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, handrails, late mg mount. Cast Flat turret with handrails.)
* T34-76 factory-112 1943 early (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, handrails, late mg mount, rear box fuel tanks. Cast Flat turret with handrails.)
* T34-76 factory-112 1944 early (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, handrails, deflector strip, late mg mount, track on hull front, 3x side round fuel tanks (Factory-112 layout). Hex turret with cupola and handrails.)
OT-34-76 were created from refitted older vehicles returned to Factory-112, so other turret combinations are possible (and likely).
* OT34-76 factory-112 1942 (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, plain hull. Cast Flat turret.)
* OT34-76 factory-112 1943 (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, handrails, deflector strip, rear box fuel tanks. Hex turret with handrails.)
* OT34-76 factory-112 1944 (Original wheels, 1 headlight on hull side, handrails, deflector strip, late mg mount, track on hull front, 2x side round fuel tanks. Hex turret with cupola and handrails.)
Factory-STZ vehicles have unique rounded rear hull edge. STZ turrets can only be used with STZ hulls, but other turrets (esp. UZTM) can be used.
* T34-76 factory-stz 1942 early (cast steel wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, plain hull, early mg mount. Early STZ Flat turret.)
* T34-76 factory-stz 1942 mid (cast steel wheels, 1 headlight on hull front, plain hull, early mg mount. STZ Flat turret.) **Use factory-112 early hull.**
All vehicles printed sitting on their tracks.
All turrets printed in correct orientation.
Remove raft then clear out tracks from the inside first.
The tracks are deep, so you will need to cut gently underneath the body edge/mudguard to free the support – watch out for the mud flaps. Cut in towards the centre of the vehicle, not outwards.
Without my copy of T-34 Mythical Weapon this detailed pack would have been impossible. A strangely edited book, but invaluable for the modeller.
