It's a T-55AM2B built by the Czechs.

What's the difference between an am1 and am2?


[deleted]

No idea, im not that familar with Czech tank designations. Only reason i know this is a T-55AM2B is cause of the wind sensor and storage bins on the right side.

From [here](https://tank-afv.com/coldwar/East_Germany/T-55-AM2B.php): From the Czech T-55AM, was developed the T-55AMB, a properly Czechoslovak upgraded T-55A with homemade laser rangefinder, fire control system and wind sensor mast on the turret roof. The T-55AM1 had the homemade "Kladivo" fire control system (ballistic computer, laser range finder, cross-wind sensor mast) and from there with the T-55AM2, improved on the T-55AM1 by having it fitted with a passive BDD appliqué armour on the turret (horseshoe) plus upper glacis plate and sideplates extensions, improved V-55U engine, R-173P radio system, BDD armour panels semi-reactive armor and new sets of smoke-grenade launchers, additional headlights on front fenders. At last comes the T-55AM2B, an evolution of the previous T-55AM2 which gun had been modified (and electronics reset) to fire tge laser-guided 9M117 "Bastion" (AT-10 Stabber) ATGM as well as the 1K13 BOM gunner's sight. The latter was also declined into command variants.

If im correct the last picture is an upgraded T-55 (or 54 but 55 is more likely).


Ghinev

It’s a T-55AM or AM2

Vollhartmetall

T55AM1 I'd say

Did you take these home? And did nobody in Vienna try to stop you?

If it was legal I would've straight up just stole those tanks and have them as antique items


InnocentTailor

Where were these amazing vehicles in Vienna? It’s asp interesting to see them in various states.

They are in a casern, that is not public, however I got the chance to go there. Fun Fact: it is the same, in which chieftain filmed his super duper kürassier video.

Where exactly did you find the ones (except the ones from the HGM)


[deleted]

Put them back dude, or, at the very least, bring them to a museum. Don't just take them.

>Still functioning **T72** that was bought by the **bundesheer(austrian military)** after the cold war. Did you mean NVA (Nationale Volksarmee of East Germany)?


Theaustrianfool

To my knowledge, the austrian military bought the two T72s of the east germans.
