Just now seen that the BH used Soviet T-34 Tanks in the 50s. Something we weren't aware of. This from a BH Site explaining it all, In 1955, the departing Soviet army gave Austria twenty-seven T-34 tanks free of charge. The specific model was the T-34/85 (with 85mm main gun and two machine guns) but otherwise the tanks had not been upgraded. They still had the WWII-style “early” wheel and tread designs. The T-34s Austria received had all seen active combat during WWII, followed by a decade of storage, and were not in the best of condition. None the less, the T-34 was still a very well-regarded tank worldwide in 1955 and they were placed into service. The T-34 remained in Austrian service until 1959, and was then allocated to reserve. During the 1960s, some had their turrets removed and placed in concrete pillboxes. These turret bunkers were maintained for emergency use until 2000. Believe this photo of a Austrian marked T-34 is not a 50s period one, but one taken of a surviving tank at a military museum ,or base maybe -

Interesting, I haven´t seen this before. Concerning the scale my guess would be something about 1/15. -
