Aloha everyone!!!

Was just wondering if anyone has any close up pics of the external differences on the Turkish M-48A5T2 variant. I know one of the differences is the use of the exact M-60A3 105 gun but what else? What other external differences to the M-48A5 is there?

Thank you in advance!!

Kurt,

Squadron/signal productions, M48 Patton in Action, has several pic's an a referance to the spec's, as well as 3 veiw drawing of the A5 variant. hope this helps.

Hi
according to Jedsite the Turkish M48A5 T2 is similar to the A5PI with the 105mm gun and the Urdan cupola.
Here is a picture of the T1 version, so without the right cupola. You may notice it has kind of Wegmann style smoke dischargers too.

You can see a walkaround of the M48A5PI in my site. It is a Lebanese one so it differs from the Turkish at least by the lack of smoke dischargers.

Not quite sure, but didn't Turkey buy some M48A2GA... whatever, from the Germans around the same time they bought all that East German Army stuff?
