Yes. The 2nd version of T-34

Yes. The 2nd version of T-34

That's not the second version. And there are a lot of them

It's broadly the 2nd version (delineated by T-43 concept in between)...especially as defined by gun.

Yep 85 stands for 85mm.

Yes. The 2nd version of T-34

Its likely some form of applique armour. Its been common in the ad hoc post war T-34 specimens that have found themselves still in operation. Could even be a spaced shroud armour given other pics seem more regular...

Yugoslav civil war kinda went derpy with it too:

Interesting stuff can be found on the original versions even:
