Microdesign MD 035251 is a top-class photo-etched detail set designed for T-34 tank models, as well as the JSU-152 self-propelled gun and the heavy IS-1 and IS-2 tanks in the popular 1/35 modeling scale.

Historical background: The original vehicles for which this set is dedicated – the T-34 tank, JSU-152 (Soviet assault gun), and the heavy IS-1 and IS-2 tanks – were key armored machines used by the USSR during World War II. They participated in the most significant battles on the Eastern Front, from Stalingrad to the liberation of Berlin (1941-1945). The external fuel tanks were a distinctive feature of Soviet engineering, increasing the operational range of vehicles, and are often visible in archival photos and historical reenactments.
