After WWII Russia began mass production of their T-54/55 tanks. It carried an impressive 100mm main
gun on a low silhouette with a turret designed for maximum protection. It also has a very distinctive
space between the first and second road wheels. The T-55A version has anti-radiation capabilities plus
a few minor improvements. Production also took place in Czechoslovakia, Poland and China (model
T-59) with approximately 95,000 tanks of all variants being produced. The T-55 has been used in over
40 countries and after almost 50 years many are still in use.
This rapid build up of new tanks started the USA to worry about a battle in Europe fighting thousands of
Soviet tanks just like this T-55A. This concern sparked a fierce tank development race between the two
countries and in the U.S. the development of the Attack Helicopter became a priority. The T-55 was sold
to over 40 countries and came in numerous variants. All total there were approximately 95,000 tanks
produced in all variants making this the most produced tank series in history.
