  1. Chinese Type 59 basically a copy of the T55. This looks North Vietnamese.
    I am guessing place as either Ho Chi Min City (Saigon) or Hanoi.

    2. At least its well maintained! I hate seeing pics like the above from Russia where they're often all rusted and covered in graffiti...

  2. I'd say T-55. The same place as that other south-east Asian tanktober pic!

  4. It's a T54, notice the round ventilator on the top of the turret. It's in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon).

  5. Ah, that's a famous tank. NVA T54, the tank that famously broke through the gates of the Presidential Palace in Saigon in 1975.

  6. T-54 or T-55. Still can't tell them apart. ;)
