RUSSIAN MEDIUM TANK T-55AM
The ubiquitous T-54 & T-55 series is the most produced tank in history, with an estimated 100,000 units being produced in former countries of the USSR. these tanks have been evolving since there inception at the end of WWII, continuously incorporating improved weapons, powerpacks and protection.
The T-66AM was the result of a comprehensive upgrade program in 1983. This upgrade included a passive appliqué armour package unofficially known as "BDD" or "Brow Armour". Also included in the upgrade was the Volna fire control system and an optional fitting for the Bastion guided missile.
The new turret armour provides 170mm of protection against APFDS rounds and 240mm of additional protection against HEAT rounds. The hull applique armour offers an additional 210mm and 180mm respectively. An additional 20mm plate is attached to the front of the lower hull to give the drive additional protection from anti-tank mines.
The addition of the Volna FCS marked the first time a ballistic computer was installed in the T-54/55 series. It incorporates an externally mounted KTD-2 laser rangefinder and the gunners improved TShSM-32PB sight with the upgraded Tsiklon M1 gun stabilization system giving the 100mm gun a 4000m effective range. The 9K116 Bastion is an guided missile fired through the 100mm main armament with a rocket motor with a burn of 6 seconds. This system can penetrate 100cm of homogenous rolled armor plate with 4000m effective range against moving targets. Up to 6 of these missiles can be carried within the tank alongside conventional 100mm main gun rounds.

Me and my brother own a real T-55 AM "Merida" here in Finland. It had paint chipping everywhere, the extra "cheek" armor was the worst. That was because the Polish Army had repainted it when modernizising it 1995. Just by painting it over the original paint... I had a ton of work to repaint it again. I painted it RAL 6009, the 6007 would have been closer to the correct, but at least it is no longer chipping... The extra armor has welds that do not rust (shiny, like stainless, the actual armor plate rusts mostly by pitting. The right hand side fuel tanks are rust free, but the spare oil tank between them was chipping and flaking all over. The most rearward tool box lid was chipping, like the most front one. all others rust free. The corrugated shield above the exhaust was chipping too. The shield plates under the exhaust on the rubber skirt are lighter green, sort of brownish green.The area front of the driver's hatch had the paint worn off before repaint, and the flat area just front of the turret had surface rust, even the repaint had been too thin. The steel mesh above the radiator, oil cooler and the fan wears to be eventually dull silver color or is not painted at all, it is stainless(those photo etched parts in the kit). The towing cables are protected (when new like ours) with grease wrapped with paper, and the paper peels off eventually unevenly. Ugly... The underside was still primer light red. Loader's and driver's hatches are white inside, the commander's hatch is dark green. Tow points are black. Side skirts are rubber, and the upper ones tend to lean outwards unevenly (there is no way to open the tool box latches unless they are bent outwards every time), the lower big ones are straight exept the front triangle ones that want to bulge out because the front fenders are always a bit bent. And, I had to build this exact kit to have a small decorative one. My model kit had faulty castings of the tracks, the bits did not connect , so I had to make thousand little cuts to make them fit together. Took two days.... The tracks are not rusty. They are gray/silver. The spare track parts are black. The road wheels right next to rubber have surface rust as they usually are not painted. The hubs have two bolt heads opposing each other red. And the worst thing: the steel meshes do not have the holes for the cover locking. And, again, the tracks are not rusty if used at all. And the front fenders are a bit bent. All areas around the toolboxes and fuel tanks are dirty black from oil and diesel. And the wire mesh is dull silver.

Greetings Bear, the T55 has turned out absolutely outstanding, you certainly put some extra work into the build, have you tried using something like Tamiya Tire Black? That is a excellent colour, very best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia 👌👍👌👍

Good afternoon! Excellently assembled model, congratulations) Please tell me what kind of barrel your T55 has? Homemade? Or was it sold in this form in a model store? Thanks in advance for your answer!

BIG THANK YOU ! If you look at video 1 there is a review of the parts that I used. The barrel is part of an upgrade kit from Miniarm

Yes! Chipping makes it look like a toy! Do tanks lose paint on the edges of armor because they’re constantly driving through bushes that are 20 feet tall? No! Toys chip on the edges because that’s where they get handled and rubbed against things

Chipping, washes, pigments, highlighting nuts and bolts... nothing more than conventions to represent an afv. Abstractions, primarily defined by the available materials. Verlinden did it his way. Nowadays it's en vogue to do these techniques. Within a few years other techniques will be used.
