UNDER OFFER, to Austria

Click below for actual films

T72's are probably one of the best known tanks in existance. And, still used around the world in big numbers. Originally designed in the late sixties to replace the popular T55, the T72 was bigger and basically had more clout. With a stabilised smooth bore 125mm gun that could upset anyones day.

During the cold war, the T72 tank was very secret and we only came to know about it during 1977. They were built under licence in Czech, India, Iran, Iraq, Poland and former Yugoslavia.

No sooner have I listed this one, we are in advanced talks. This are stunningly great fun to drive.
