About:

The M48A5T1 / T2 Tanks are the main battle tank equipped with a 7.62 mm A4 machine gun and 12.7 mm (50 caliber) M2 anti-aircraft gun, which can be controlled from inside, with a 105 mm cannon, used by the Turkish Armed Forces.

The design of the M48 Patton tank, developed for the needs of the American army, dates back to 1948.

It has been in mass production since 1952.

It has undergone several modernizations due to its failure to meet expectations.

In 1955, the transmission elements were improved and the A1 version was released.

In 1956, it was upgraded to A2 version by adding a new petrol engine with injector and a high volume fuel tank.

In 1963, the M48 tank, whose engine was replaced with a diesel engine and transmission elements adapted from the M60A1 tank, was upgraded to the A3 version.

Finally, with the comprehensive change made in 1975, firing systems were developed and the latest version A5 model was emerged by installing 105 mm gun.

Turkey’s modernization efforts of the first M48, Germany within the scope of military aid,

It was carried out by the modernization of 183 M48 tanks at the Arifiye Tank / Pallet Factory in 1982-1983 with the support of Wegmann.

In the following process, 1360 M48 tanks from America were modernized to the technical level of the M60A1 tank and received the name M48A5T1.

Some of the changes made are 105 mm gun, 750 horsepower diesel engine, passive night vision device and fire control system.

760 M48 tanks, which came from America between 1987 and 1991, were upgraded to the M60A1 / A3 level and named M48A5T2.

In addition to T1 features, a laser distance meter, stabilization equipment and fire control computer were added to the T2 tank.

As a result of these modernization works carried out at that time, 2303 M48 tanks formed the main strength of the Turkish Armed Forces Armored Units.
