The T-34 series changed the principles of tank design during the war with its sloped armor. The sloped, angular layout of the T-34 increased armor thickness and thus also reduced the number of shells penetrating its armor.
The introduction of the T-34 prompted German tank design to follow suit with similar angled armors like the Panther and King Tiger. As German tank design came to the forefront, the Soviet war machine once again raised the standard with the T-34/85.
