After the heavy and hard years of 1941 and 1942 the T-34 would face new challenges and opponents. The new German tanks like the Panther, Ferdinand and King Tiger would pose a serious threat to the steady flow of T-34's coming out from the factories in ever increasing numbers.

But the Soviet designers had several aces in their sleeves. New tank and SPG designs like T-34-85, SU-85, SU-100 were coming in, tipping the balance to the Soviet side. Was the T-34-85 the best tank of the WWII? What advantages and disadvantages did the design have? How did it fare compared to the German tanks? How did the largest tank battle of WWII end? What kind of legacy did the T-34 leave on tank design?
