The Red Army Russian tanks destroyed in Ukraine. German Blitzkrieg, Operation Barbarossa, Eastern Front, World War II in Europe.
German mountain shooters examine the Soviet medium tank T-34, destroyed on the ring of the central park of Poltava (current Oktyabrskaya street). During the battle, the driver crashed into the wall of the house, bent the barrel of the gun, after which the combat vehicle was hit. With a high degree of probability, the T-34 could belong to the 1st or 2nd battalion of the 10th tank regiment of the 10th tank brigade of the Red Army, which defended Poltava in September 1941.
