Description



The T-62 originally was conceived as a companion weapon to the T-55.Being

Essentially a T55 up gunned with the2A20 115mm cannon. Both the T-55 and the T-62

Used the same wheels, track, engine, transmission, hatches and other fittings. The primary differences between the two vehicles were the T-62�?s lengthened hull and new turret design. The new UT-5 can-non could fire its BR-5 APFSDS steel round through approximately 300mm of armor at a range of 1000 meters. This was adequate to deal with the then perceived threat of such NATO tanks as the American M-48 and later models of the British Centurion. The T-62 was meant to add long range firing capability to Soviet tank regiments being placed alongside T-55s, but in the later years of its deployment it fulfilled much the same role as the T-55.

    Despite being introduced in 1960, the improved performance of its successors, the T-72, the T-62 still sees service today in many of the world�?s army the Arab nations being the largest consumers outside the Warsaw pact. Egypt, Iraq, and Syria have been notable users of the T-62, Israel has acquired a quantity of T-62s in clashes with its neighbors and has rebuilt them to IDF standards.
