Hey guys,
I couldn't resist the urge and picked one of these up on the internet a couple of weeks ago. My question is this, did, or are any other countries using this vehicle besides China? I want to place a tank with it, and would love to see my T-55 on it without having to do too many mods to make it a Type-59.
Thanks,
Stuke

Stuke, that's one I've never seen asked.
I contacted the gentleman over at Sinodefence.com concerning your question. Hurry up and wait for an answer... at least from my end.
More than likely, someone here knows.

I'm certain that China also received some T55s, before producing the Type 59.
But I know nothing about the timeframe of their use, compared to that of the tank-transporter.
