T-xx tanks in the USA
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Two questions about T-xx tanks; The Iraqi tank at Anniston army depot, is this a T-54 or T-55 (or Chinese built)? The tank at F.E.Warren AFB, is this a T-55 or a T-62? The T-80 at the Threat Facility at Nellis AFB, which sub (U, B) variant is this? Thanks in advance Lesley

Nellis: T-80BV (or earlier variant made up to look as a BV). Also note that the T-34-85 is a Czechoslovak manufactured ex-Egyptian example. fulltime-rv.blogspot.g...is-af.html The Anniston example(http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v218/baumgar/Anniston%20Army%20Depot/?action=view¤t=T54.jpg&sort=ascending) is a Type 69. _________________ 1/72 and 1/76 scale fanatic.

"T-80BV or earlier variant made up to look as a BV" - no it is not a T-80 tank, it is visual mod. It is not real T-80.

It's a good one, which even seems to have the thermal shroud of the gun removed. _________________ 1/72 and 1/76 scale fanatic.
