description: The T-54/55 series was the most-produced tank in history. Estimated production
|
|
numbers for the series range from 86,000 to 100,000. They were replaced by the T-62,
|
|
T-64, T-72, T-80 and T-90 tanks in the Soviet and Russian armies, but remain in
|
|
use by up to 50 other armies worldwide, some having received sophisticated retrofitting.
|
|
During the Cold War, Soviet tanks never directly faced their NATO adversaries in
|
|
combat in Europe. However, the T-54/55's first appearance in the West around the
|
|
period of the 1950s (then the beginning of the Cold War) spurred the United Kingdom
|
|
to develop a new tank gun, the Royal Ordnance L7, and the United States to develop
|
|
the M60 Patton.
