Anya convinces Nikolay to let her escape with them, as only she can steal a map from Jäger's office showing a safe route out of the area, and gain a pass letting her out of the camp for a day.īefore the training exercise, Nikolay and his crew retrieve the munitions and create a smoke screen to mask their movements. Not trusting the Soviets, Jäger orders anti-tank mines laid around the entirety of the training grounds. Granted permission to bury their comrades, they hide the munitions with the bodies in a cairn on the edge of the training grounds. The Germans first order the Soviet prisoners to clear out the rotting and burned bodies from inside the tank, but as they remove the bodies, they unexpectedly find a small number of remaining live shells and hand grenades. At first, the other tankers refuse to take part, but Nikolay says he has a plan to escape. Nikolay picks out three other tankers from the POWs – driver Vasilyonok, loader Serafim Ionov, and gunner Demyan Volchok-to crew a T-34/85 that the Germans just captured. At first Nikolay refuses, but agrees after Jäger threatens to kill Anya. Jäger proposes the idea to Nikolay through the camp's interpreter, bilingual Russian prisoner Anya ( Irina Starshenbaum). Nikolay has been a prisoner for three years, and has refused to give his name, but Jäger recognizes his photograph from the camp records.

Through a combination of guile and bravery, their T-34 destroys six panzers, but in a final duel with Jäger's command panzer, both tanks are disabled, and half the Russian tank crew is killed, and Nikolay and driver Stepan Vasilyonok captured. Nikolay and his crew lay an ambush for a platoon of German panzers commanded by Klaus Jäger ( Vinzenz Kiefer). Nikolay is assigned to command a damaged T-34 tank whose commander was killed, with orders to delay the Germans' advance with only the single tank and a small number of supporting infantry. Nikolay, who has been trained as an armor officer, maneuvers skillfully and they escape uninjured, and alive, though very shaken up.
