The Indiana Military Museum has received a new piece of history.

On Tuesday, a 1943 Russian T34 tank arrived at the museum in Vincennes.

Museum officials say the tank is in great running condition. It was obtained out of Wisconsin and will soon be on display.

The T34 tank was introduced in 1940 and used until the 1960s in the Russian Miliary. The tank was the highest produced tank of World War II and was widely exported following the war. It was equipped with a 76 mm tank gun and was also heavily armored.

To see this spectacle of history, and others like it, visit the Indiana Miliary Museum on South 6th Street in Vincennes.
