After Romania joined in the war against the Third Reich did Romania receive any SU-100 or T-34 76/ model 1940 and if so did they use the white circle with the Red Star in the middle of if or continue to use King Michael's Cross?

No, the Soviets did not give any of their armored material to Romanian army until after the war.

Dragos, what kind of armored equipment was supplied to Romania by the USSR after the war ended? I know of a small number of Panthers, but what else? Any T-34's? Any captured Tigers?

There is no Tiger at the Military museum. Only a Panzer IV.

2 tanks Tiger I, abandoned in Romania by their German crews, probably due to lack of fuel, were captured by the Romanians, but then quickly confiscated by the Russians.
The Romanians captured during combat about 40 Panthers (Pz-V) until May 1945, and these were kept by the Romanian army. The Romanians captured also 222 German airplanes on Romanian airports, after August 23, but most of them were taken by the Russians. |
