Brief historical overview

The T-35 is a unique, multi-turret heavy tank designed in the Soviet Union and introduced into service in the mid-1930s. It was mainly used by the Red Army during the period just before the outbreak of World War II and in its early stages. Among other operations, this tank took part in the defense of the USSR during the German invasion in 1941.
