My son picked up an excellent book the other day - called 'Tank' by Patrick Wright it is a cultural history of the tank - no technical details to bore you - more like charting the 20th century's love hate relationship with these juggernauts of war. It's a fascinating read that takes in Tienamin square, Aleister Crowley - all sorts of subjects - and one I recommend. Anyway it got me thinking about these beasts again and it turns out there is a new museum near Moscow dedicated to that war winning piece of engineering the T-34. Excellent. I wonder if they know about the abandoned graffitied T-34 in SE1 - photographed in the book Derelict London.
