ISBN10: 1472833309, ISBN13: 9781472833303, [publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC] Hardcover Hardcover. Probably one of the most iconic symbols of Soviet military power during the early years of the Cold War was the silhouette of the T-54 tank prowling down streets of foreign capitals under Soviet sway or roaring across fields in massive exercises. Its sleek and unmistakable shape was a warning to any nation that wanted to stand against the Soviet empire.But when the truth was known and while it was a technological marvel of its day and a breakthrough in armoured vehicle design it was essentially the perfect tank to fight the Great Patriotic War (World War II) and not as advanced as it seemed from its appearances.

ISBN10: 1472833309, ISBN13: 9781472833303, [publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Nov 2018] Hardcover Neuware - The menacing silhouette of the T-54 tank prowling down streets of Eastern European capitals or roaring across fields in massive exercises remains one of the most enduring images of Soviet power in the early years of the Cold War. Its sleek and unmistakable shape was a warning to any nation that wanted to stand against the USSR. Yet all of this masked a flawed, outdated design, and when T-54s began to clash with the Western armoured vehicles in proxy wars in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, they were found to be on the losing side of many of the battles. Containing over 500 stunning contemporary and modern photographs, and written by two experts on Soviet armour, this authoritative book tells the complete story of the T-54, one of the most widely produced tanks of all time, including many previously unheard of variants.
