The key change was equipping the vehicle with a new, powerful 2A20 (UT-5) 115 mm smoothbore gun, capable of penetrating about 300 mm of armor at a distance of 1,000 meters. Thanks to this, the T-62 surpassed many contemporary NATO tanks in firepower, such as the American M48 Patton and the British Centurion.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The T-62 served in the Soviet army from the 1960s onward, as well as in Warsaw Pact countries, the Middle East (primarily Egypt, Iraq, Syria), and in many conflicts – for example, the 1973 Yom Kippur War, the Afghan War, numerous conflicts in the Middle East and Africa. Israel even captured significant numbers of vehicles during battles, later modifying them to its own standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose This Model?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAn ideal choice for enthusiasts of Soviet armored technology and Cold War conflicts\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEasy to assemble for intermediate and more experienced modelers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAccurately reproduced details of the hull and turret, in accordance with historical documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePossibility to create a realistic historical diorama\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuild difficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\/5 – recommended for those with basic experience in assembling plastic models.
