Like its younger brother, the T-54, the T-55 enjoyed a long career in the Red Army and even into the early days of the reformed Russian Army. Under their control it saw very little combat use or deployments, but it was widely sold to other nations and participated in many of the wars and combat operations from the mid-1960s to the present. The T-55 has been employed in almost every conflict in the Middle East and Africa from its introduction into service. Even today the tank is still employed by both sides in the Syrian Civil War, and they are also in service with Kurdish forces in the struggle against ISIS in the northern part of Iraq.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Containing 150 stunning contempo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction \u003cb\u003eChapter One:\u003c\/b\u003e Leonid Kartsev \u003cb\u003eChapter Two:\u003c\/b\u003e Development of the T-55 Tank \u003cb\u003eChapter Three:\u003c\/b\u003e Description of the T-55 and its Variants \u003cb\u003eChapter Four: \u003c\/b\u003eDerivatives of the T-55 Tank Family \u003cb\u003eChapter Five: \u003c\/b\u003eCombat Use of the T-55 Tank Appendices Bibliography Index\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49408762118487,"sku":"9781472838551","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/soviet-t55-main-battle-tank-9781472838551","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
