Just did my first battle with old tanks, T-55s and T-62s versus M-60s and me in a Leo-1.

What a masscre on both sides. The bugs did not stop to pop up everywhere once they had been sighted. It definetly is a very different kind of battle with these old tanks, much more lethal, since even with those older ammunitions all these four tanks seem to be more vulnerable to those old rounds than modern tanks are to modern ammunition. Not really what I expected - I expected it the other way around.

I think the T-72 arrived before the Leo-2. It must have rang panic bells in Brussel, for at its time it was superior to the 55 and 62, and in toughness of armour and ammunition quality (the bigger gun anyway) probably also to the M60 and Leo-1. the only advantage maybe was the thermal displays of the Western tanks.

Four versions of T-72s now in SBP.
