The photos aren't too detailed, but two tanks on the right on a main photo are most probably T-62 (wider turrets and most probably gas ejectors in a middle of barrels). Several tanks on additional photos seem to confirm it. On the left there is T-55. |

The main (only?) Soviet maufacturer was in Nizhny Tagil. -- Last edit: 2009-03-30 02:05:48 |

I'm afraid we should review Soviet tank manufactures. Jane's Armour and Artillery says, that T-54 was designed at Malyshev Plant in Kharkov (Morozov bureau), but T-55 was developed in Nizhny Tagil (Kartsev bureau, the factory itself does not seem to have a specific name). It was also Nizhny Tagil to develop T-62, T-72 and T-90 (as for T-72 and T-90, a factory name Uralvagonzavod appears). On the other hand, T-64 was developed at Kharkov Transport Machine Plant (KhMTZ??), and T-80 at Leningrad Kirov Plant (LKZ), not Malyshev. Edited: Probably Uralvagonzavod will be correct also for T-55 and T-62 - there is no info on existence of other big machine plant in Nizhny Tagil, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uralvagonzavod says it was created in 1936. Oh, I've found, that KhPZ was renamed Malyshev only in 1957! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KhPZ ). So, correct manufacturer of T-54 should be KhPZ, not Malyshev. Also we have an answer, that Malyshev was a manufacturer of T-64. To sum up, IMO it will be most correct: KhPZ - T-34, T-44, T-54 Uralvagonzavod - T-55, T-62, T-72 (T-90) Malyshev - T-64, T-80UD Leningrad Kirov Works - T-80 -- Last edit: 2009-03-30 02:50:42 |
