Comparing: T-44-100 vs. T-34-2

Experimental medium tank that was developed in 1945 on the basis of the T-44 tank. Unlike the T-44 tank, the T-44-100 featured the 100 mm LB-1 gun mounted in a newly designed turret, and slat side armor. Only two vehicles were manufactured.

The T-34-2 was not an upgraded modification of the Soviet T-34 tank, but was a totally different vehicle. Chinese engineers conceived the T-34-2 as an analog of the Soviet T-54. Later the U.S.S.R. passed the technology of T-54 production to China, and the T-34-2 project was discontinued.
