T-62M MBT

Produced from 1961 until the early 1970s, the T-62 was capable of deep-fording by means of a snorkel over the loader's hatch and was fitted with infra-red night vision equipment, turret ventilation equipment, nuclear biological and chemical protection and an ability to create instant smoke by injecting diesel into the exhaust. Armed with a 115mm U-5TS gun, the T-62 was first used operationally in the Middle East suring the Arab-Israeli wars.
