Israeli Tiran 5
Centurion
Olifant
M1 Abrams
Japanese Type 74

Swiss Panzer 58, 61 and 68
Some upgraded M47s

I should make one disclaimer to the list above. Some of the tanks above may have been sleeved, or had the American M68 version, but if you are looking for a naked L7, this may be the answer.

And to make what Michael wrote even more clear: the M68 gun was visually different, so this product is not suitable for M68 equipped tanks. Also some of those tanks listed had thermal sleave on the gun changing the appearance even more.

The M68 on the M60A1's and early Abrams had a differnet bore evacuator visually.
