For the first time in English — Photos and drawings from secret Soviet archives and museums — many never previously published! Recently translated documents are used to present the true stories of the T-34 and SU-152! (This is why we call them "The Russian View.")
In "The SU-152 and Related Vehicles," you will learn about the design and evolution of the legendary self-propelled gun on the KV chassis, including many little-known prototypes and proposed alternate models. Called the "beast killer" at Kursk for its ability to destroy German Tiger and Panther tanks. What disaster led to the shortage of these "bunker busters" in the final push into Germany in 1945?
"The T-34 Goes to War" chronicles the real story of the celebrated medium tank, from its troubled conception to its first, desperate combat actions in the cauldron of Barbarossa. Thousands of T-34s were available in June 1941 – why did they fail to stop the German panzer groups? Soviet archival records admit to some astonishing problems.
Both books are richly illustrated with photos, blueprints, and cutaway diagrams.

I have both of these and know the author. They are excellent books and contain some info I've never before come across.
