The M47E2 has Rheinmetall 105mm gun I think and not the m68.

Edit: It is most propably the Rh-105-30 version

Yea, my photos show it's the M47E1 with Rh-105 105 mm gun that makes it the M47E2. From what I can find out there were at least 2 types of 105's tried/applied.

During the Iran-Iraq War, I saw a photo of a captured Iranian M47 with a gun with the mid barrel bore evacuator in a News magazine. I think that it was an M47M.
