T-26

The T-26 single turret tank was further modified in 1937 by replacing the cylindrical turret with an oval conical turret. A large number were captures and, being similar to the Finnish Vickers 6t, they were modified by replacing the 45mm M1932 gun with a 37mm Bofors and pressed back into Finnish service. The turret handrail was also added to make climbing aboard easier in the snow and ice as well as for the infantry to ride into battle.
