Product Description
- A detailed photo book with a wealth of photos and illustrations of the T-72 M4CZ main battle tank, a modernized version of the Soviet/Russian T-72 developed independently by the Czech Republic, and its derivative, the VT-72 M4CZ armored recovery vehicle.
- The former Soviet Army's masterpiece tank, the T-72 main battle tank, was provided to approximately 40 countries, mainly Eastern Bloc countries. Czechoslovakia in particular produced the T-72 under license from 1981, and even after splitting into the Czech Republic, continued to operate a large number of over 500 T-72Ms.
- Development of these modernized versions began in 1994, prototypes were tested in 2000, and modernization work began in 2003 as the T-72 M4CZ.
- The modifications are extensive, with the main changes being a uniquely shaped ERA armour, a turret fitted with a new Western FCS and ranging system, and a rear hull that has been modified with the same power pack as the British Challenger 2.
- Due to the end of the Cold War and budget cuts, only 30 vehicles were upgraded by 2006, but they are scheduled to remain in service until 2025.
- This book provides a detailed explanation of this extremely rare T-72 variant, along with the VT-72 M4CZ armored recovery vehicle, through photos of the actual vehicle and illustrations from the manual, making it the definitive edition with a large volume of visuals to help you understand it.
- This is a recommended book for modelers who build Trumpeter 1/35 kits and researchers of Soviet/Russian tanks.
