does somebody have good pics or links,
because i would like to build a "middle-east" or "african" t-55

i've seen on the net a great model of an irakian t-55, and another great irakian one on the site, the enigma tank.

Thanks

Hi Derek

A few more sites. This site contains great info and photos on T-54 / T-55s.

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/russia/t-54.htm


The sites below are for ‘African’ T-55s, bear in mind that quite a few ‘African’ T-55s came from Poland and Cuba:
