Photograph, Korean War (1950-1953), 1950.

The T34 was the mainstay of the Soviet armoured formations during World War Two and one of the finest tanks ever designed. It was widely exported in the post-war years to fellow Communist states like North Korea. The North Korean invasion of South Korea in June 1950 was spearheaded by over 100 T34s.
