Ironically, it's Egyptian, but I can't seem to find anything about it. One of the guys says those are smoke rockets, but I don't know for sure.. Anyway, one of the guys on FB wants to scratch it and cast it in resin, but he doesn't have enough info on it. Does anyone know anything about it.. any detail photos or drawings.. We'd appreciate any help we can get.



We have a couple more pics of it, but nothing that shows it in detail.



Thanks in advance

I think I have an old magazine has an article that discusses all about this T-62 upgrade and how to model it.If you would like me to find it just IM me.

Here's another view :



I've found the designation "T-62E Mark II" for this version...

From Wikipedia (for what it's worth..Reader beware ! ) :

"T-62E Mark II: Mid 1990s Egyptian refurbishment and modernization program. The tanks were fitted with a license-built German MTU engine developing 880 hp (656 kW). The tanks are armed with a license-built 105 mm M68 tank gun, an Italian fire control system with ballistics computer, infrared vision device, laser rangefinder, gun stabilizer, additional armor including reactive armour, armored side skirts, modernized suspension and six smoke grenade launchers on each side of the turret. It has an upgraded NBC (nuclear, biological, and chemical) protection system. The T-62E Mark II carries two Egyptian-made two-round anti-tank missile launchers, or two 2-round launchers for 80 mm D-3000 smoke rockets on an encroachment extension, or a box-type launcher holding two Sakr smoke missiles on each side of the turret.[20] The upgrade did not change the weight of the tank, which remained at 45 tons."

Thanks, Henri-Pierre.. I believe this is one of the four pics he has.. but the designation is of help also.
