The all-steel Object 430 has a well-rounded turret; however, its multiple improvements did not increase battlefield survivability beyond that of the T-55 series it was slated to replace. Despite this, elements were borrowed for future successful prototypes. |

History[edit | edit source]
Class: Medium Tank (Prototype)
Developed: 1953-1956
Service: N/A
Vehicles Built: 5
Operators: N/A
The Object 430 was a T-64 predecessor and an attempt to build a worthy successor to the legendary T-54 Medium Tank for Soviet use. It has all the properties of a classic Soviet early MBT – sloped frontal armor, round cast turret, low silhouette and a powerful upgraded 100mm rifled gun. Several prototypes were built in the late 1950s but despite being an excellent tank in its own right, the project was ultimately cancelled because it did not represent a significant enough upgrade over the T-54.
