It was essentially a modification of the widely-manufactured T-55 tank with the addition of a new 115mm gun. Within the USSR itself, the T-62 was quickly superseded, but it was widely exported, becoming a critical component of the Egyptian and Syrian armies in the 1973 Yom Kippur conflict and heavily influenced later designs of the M1 Abrams and Challenger tanks.In the first English-language history of this tank, Steven Zaloga examines the development of the T-62 using detailed combat descriptions to bring to life the operational history of this tank from the deserts of the Sinai to the harsh terrain of Afghanistan.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51865878036768,"sku":"NEW184603390X","price":22.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91NB2zinyeL.jpg?v=1781669006","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/t-62-main-battle-tank-1965-2005-new-vanguard-184603390x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
