Taken in Belgrade. Anyone know what kind of model this is?

Never seen this turret / gun before.

Looks like a T44 with a turret which is intermediate between 44 and 54. But I wouldn't know the exact type.

It's a T-34 (85?) chassis, but I've never seen this gun/turret before.
Here's from another angle:

Yugoslav T-34 copy called Teski Tenk Vozilo A.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-34_variants

Quote
Teski Tenk Vozilo A (Heavy Tank Type A) - This was a 1949 Yugoslav tank based on the T34 design. A total of nine prototypes were built. They were designed and built at the height of the danger from Soviet invasion when Yugoslavia was building up its weapons industry. They were designed by reverse engineering of the Soviet T-34-85 medium tank without any documentation. They are recognizable by their angled front hull corners, modified hull machine gun mantlet, streamlined turret with cylindrical cupola, muzzle brake on the gun, and external fuel tanks that appear to be notched to fit the hull. An alternate version existed, armed with a gun and a mantlet from the M47 Patton. Two examples survive. One of the prototypes is on display at the military museum in the Kalemegdan fortress in Belgrade. The other surviving example is in Banja Luka barracks.

No.  It looks like Hermann Goering division in Italy.

Wonder what tank did that turret belong to?
