T34-88 (1944)

Russian tank modified by german /...

German Beutepanzers, or simply “captured tanks”, were fairly known as captured enemy tanks with additional armor and with some modifications, especially by repainting the armor and slipping some Iron Cross marks to prevent any friendly fire. But there were some cases where German engineers tried to install their own tank guns to the Beutepanzers, particularly with the Soviet T-34 Medium Tank. When they assumed that the main gun from both T-34-76 (76.2 mm F-34) and T-34-85 (85 mm S-53) were not powerful enough, they decided to strap a modified 88 mm anti-air gun to a T-34. As always, Germans always needed something big for their arsenal
