Thanks.

I thought so too going by the bogey wheels and the extended rear.

I will try to relocate the link and see what Patton they mention!

Yes, they mention that it was M 47.

My mistake!

But my curiosity has been ignited by the fact that Britannia mention that Laser Raangefinders were being fitted to tanks in the 1960s. I wonder which tank and were they fitted to the Pak Pattons. More so, since the link above mentions the tank as Patton M48A5 (Pak Modified).

Obviously, after 1965, Pak would not have banked on the Patton and got more from the US as aid!
