Assembled model 1/35 tank T-62 of the 1975 model with interchangeable plow KMT-6 Trumpeter 01550

Prefab model 1/35 russian T-62 tank of 1975 model with interchangeable plow KMT-6 Trumpeter 01550 The T-62 was originally conceived as a companion weapon to the T-55. It is essentially a T55 equipped with a 115mm 2A20 gun. Both T-55 and T-62 used the same wheels, track, engine, transmission, hatches and other equipment. The main differences between the two machines were the elongated body of the T-62 and the new turret design. The new UT-5 gun could fire its BR-5 APFSDS steel projectile through approximately 300 mm of armor at a distance of 1,000 meters. This was enough to deal with the perceived threat of such NATO tanks as the American M-48 and the later models of the British Centurion. The T-62 was supposed to provide the long-range firepower of the Soviet tank regiments that stood alongside the T-55, but in the last years of its deployment it performed almost the same role as the T-55.
