Yes, that is correct, I am wishing for another T-34 variant. This one with the 57mm ZiS-4 gun. Why a 57mm gun you ask? Well, because it is a MORE POWERFUL anti-tank gun than the 76mm f-34 currently carried by our T-34/76mm, plus it would fire faster; the trade-off is that it would be sub-par as a building killer as the HE rounds were historically abominable in reliability & explosive power. This would give EW a perkable tank (small perk) without requiring a huge remodel (easier than the P-47M), much less a whole new tank creation. Yes, it would be available in EW arena as during the Battle of Moscow (Oct. '41-Jan. '42) as on 10 Oct. '41 the 21st Tank Brigade, including 10 T-34 57s, destroyed a German motorized column 3km in length during the Kalinin raid, knocking out 34 German tanks, 31 artillery pieces, and 210 trucks. A known T-34/57mm casualty was a M. Lukin (posthumously awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union) of the 21st Tank Brigade, he was killed when his T-34 57 was knocked out.
What would it take to create one? A longer and skinnier barrel, that is all!!!!!
If anyone has a good source or links about the T-34/57, could you post them? All I have is a couple of photocopied pages from an unknow book that are about 10-15 years old that I found in a box of my wargaming stuff last night.
