Data in this bulletin are from the US Army Foreign Science Technology Centers FSTC official reports on the Yom Kippur War the US Army Materiel Systems Analysis agency AMSAA and the 11th Combat Intelligence Company. The countermeasures discussed in section VI are based on the combat results of recent Middle East wars and of tactical studies employed against forces which generally follow Soviet doctrine. Some information of the T-64 and T-72 tanks can be found in Appendix A. Because other Soviet medium tanks T-54, T-55 are similar to the T-62, they are not discussed in this bulletin.

The material in this bulletin is based primarily on the T-62 model since it is the current workhorse of Soviet tank units. The purpose of this bulletin is to describe the Soviet main battle tank, and to explain What it can do Whit it cannot do How it is used How it is defeated. It is an accurate, highly-lethal, weapon system generally comparable to the US M6O series tank. The T-62 is the principal battle tank found in Soviet tank and motorized rifle divisions. A new tank, called the T-8O, is reportedly under development, however, little is known about its characteristics. The tanks in these forces consist of T-54, T-55, T-62, and T-72 models. Abstract: The Soviet Union and its Warsaw Pact allies have built their armies around mechanized combined arms teams.
