■Product Description
[A fast tank that has undergone continuous evolution]
In the late 1930s, the BT-7 was a fast tank that formed the core of the early Soviet tank forces, combining high mobility, a 45mm gun with top-class firepower for its time, and advanced sloped armor on the front of the hull. The BT-7 1937 model is an improved version with enhanced defensive capabilities. It was equipped with a new turret that took ballistic protection into consideration, replacing the conventional turret with one whose outer perimeter was composed of vertical surfaces. Its design later developed into the masterpiece tank T-34. It first appeared on the battlefield in the Nomonhan Incident of 1939, and when the German-Soviet war broke out, it fought valiantly against the powerful German army.
