Despite its name, the T-34-76 obr. 1943 g. first entered service in 1942, during the later stages of the Battle of Stalingrad. It had a redesigned turret for increased crew comfort and with a cupola to give the commander a better field of view. Increased frontal armor gives somewhat better protection. Features the longer F-34 tank gun for better armor-piercing capability. Also has an anti-aircraft DT-29 machine gun on the cupola.

In-Game
Roughly comparable to the PzKpfw IV Ausf. G, it has equal armor protection, superior mobility, but inferior armor piercing capability. Outclassed by the PzKpfw V Panther and PzKpfw VI Tiger I that first enter service at Kursk in 1943.
