The T-55 is a Soviet medium tank used extensively through the Cold War. Along with the T-54 variation, this tank series is the most used tank in the world and has seen service in over 50 countries.
The T-55AM-1 was an enhanced version of the T-55. The T-55AM-1 variant included enhanced composite armour, a laser rangefinder, stabilised fire control, and protection against chemical and nuclear threats.
These improvements kept the tank relevant through the Cold War era, with many serving in Warsaw Pact armies and exported worldwide. Its robust design and continuous upgrades made it a reliable platform that influenced armoured warfare strategies well into the late 20th century.
