T-62M Tank Company

By 1985 the T-62 tank had been relegated to second line divisions in the Soviet Army, with the T-64 and T-72 taking on the role as the front-line main battle tanks in the Soviet arsenal. However, there was still life in the old dog yet and a comprehensive modernisation program had been developed to bring these tanks into the modern age of warfare. The modernisations included an improved armour package, engine and transmission updates, a new fire-control system, and the ability to fire the 9M117 Bastion (NATO designation AT-10 Stabber) anti-tank guided missile through its 115mm smooth-bore main gun.

T-62M tanks were often issued to divisions stationed inside the Soviet Union, either as reserve forces or on fronts where opposition was expected to be not as well equipped as NATO forces were in Western Europe.
