Clash of Steel: Soviet - T-54-1 Company

The T-44 was heavily influential on the design of the T-54–1, the first model of the T-54 main battle tank. However, the T-44 still used the same 85mm tank gun as the T-34–85 medium tank. The Soviet army wanted a tank armed with a more powerful 100mm gun. Shortly after the T-44 design was completed, unsuccessful efforts were made to fit the 100mm gun to the T-44 turret. Instead, a new roomier turret that could fit the larger gun was designed. In addition to the improved firepower, designers were able to increase the turret and hull armour. Contains: x5 Pieces
