Comparing: VK 30.01 (D) vs. T-34-85 Rudy

In the winter of 1941–1942 the WaPrüf 6 issued technical requirements for a new 30-ton tank. The orders for development were placed with MAN and Daimler-Benz. The prototypes were to be ready by May 1942. However, on May 13th, 1942 only comparative characteristics of the projects were submitted. The MAN's project was preferred, and the Daimler-Benz's project was canceled.

This fictional T-34-85 tank, identified as Number 102 of the 1st Tank Brigade of the Polish Army, was featured in the Polish TV series "Four Tank-Men and a Dog." In reality, Т-34-85s were produced in Poland in the 1950s at the Bumar Labedy plant, located in Gliwice. The Polish variant was slightly modified from the Soviet tank of the late-war period.
