T-54s and T-55s were involved in many of the world's armed conflicts during the late twentieth century. In 1961, development of improved protection systems began. The goal was to protect the crew from fast neutrons; adequate protection against gamma radiation was provided by the thick armor. The tank was equipped with a full chemical filtration system. The coaxial 7.62 mm SGMT machine gun was replaced by a 7.62 mm PKT machine gun. The hull was lengthened from 6.04 m to 6.2 m. The hull machine gun was removed, making space for six more main gun rounds. These changes increased the weight of the vehicle to 38 tons. This album of detailed photographs is invaluable for the modeler or enthusiast alike.

Although the BMP-1 was a revolutionary design, its main armament quickly became obsolete. Therefore the Soviet Union decided to produce an updated and improved version of the BMP-1 with the main emphasis on improving the main armament. In 1972 work got underway to develop an improved version of the BMP-1. This photo album of the BMP-2 contains color photos with English/Polish photo captions.

These tanks had better and more consistent quality of make but with inferior armor, lacking the resin-embedded ceramics layer inside the turret front and glacis armor, replaced with all steel. Various versions of the T-72 have been in production for decades, and the specifications for its armor have changed considerably. With a wealth of color photos, this book is a great reference for an AFV fan.
