T-34 Mentor was a training plane. But I bet you mean the T-34 Tank. It is a soviet made tank sporting an 76mm turret which was later upgraded to a 85mm main gun. It had a crew of 4-5. Maximum speed was 55 mph with a V12 engine which was relativly fast, and weighed about 26klb.

Actually it had a maximum speed of 55 km/h and weighed 30,900 kg (67,980 lbs) in the 76mm version and 32,000 kg (70,400 lbs) in the 85mm version.

I could name the weight of all the different models... Chose the most common one. They could weigh 26-36 tons. Road speeds as low as 25mph (40km/h) and top speed 35mph (55km/h)... Gruesome details. :p

55 mph and 26,000 lbs is definitely wrong. ;)
