I can't tell if your being sarcastic or not... But even so...It was a German captured one with the marking and paint still on it and ran like the day it was put there... I find that kind of amazing.

Russian arsenals are filled with enough T-34.

50000 Dollars and some connections, and you can get one

Then again



This KV-1 laid in the Neva River for 60 years. But is in remarkle good shape. The guys who got it out restored it along with 4 other tanks found in the lake (T-38, BT-5 and more)
Their is still plenty on the river so it seems
