It is a Chinese-made main battle tank, based on the Soviet T-54A tank design. It was first produced in 1958, served in 1959, started mass production in 1963, and stopped production in 1980, producing about 9500 vehicles. It was the main equipment of the Chinese People's Liberation Army until the early 21st century. During the service, it underwent many improvements, including the replacement of the 100mm smoothbore gun with a 105mm rifling gun, which became the cornerstone of subsequent Chinese tank designs. It has a traditional post-war layout with a battle bay at the front, an engine bay at the rear, and a cast dome-shaped turret at the center.
