The T-34 was a Soviet medium tank produced from 1940 to 1958. It has been often credited as the most effective, efficient and influential tank design of World War II. First produced at the KhPZ factory in Kharkov (Kharkiv, Ukraine), it was the mainstay of Soviet armoured forces throughout World War II, and widely exported afterwards. It was the most-produced tank of the war, and the second most-produced tank of all time. At its introduction, it was the tank with the best balanced attributes of firepower, mobility, protection and ruggedness. The design and construction of the tank were continuously refined during the war to enhance effectiveness and decrease costs, allowing steadily greater numbers of T-34s to be fielded. In early 1944, the improved T-34-85 was introduced, with a more powerful 85 mm gun and a three-man turret design.
