Notes: Also known as the Type 74Z, the Iranians captured about 200 T-55s from Iraq during their war with Iran in 1980-88. They modified them as follows: Side skirts were added, lugs for reactive armor were added (HF, HS, TF, TS), 100mm gun has been replaced with a 105mm L7 gun, a laser rangefinder with ballistic computer has been added, and smoke grenade launchers have been added (4 on each side of the turret).|

Type 72Z
Notes: This is another upgrade of the T-54/T-55/Type 59. It has been upgraded in firepower and mobility. These tanks are also modified from captured Iraqi vehicles. The 100mm rifled gun has been replaced by a 105mm M-68 rifled gun (US version of the British L-7). A Slovenian-made computerized fire control system with a laser rangefinder has been added. The gunner and commander are equipped with image intensifiers. New track skirts have been added, and the tracks have been replaced with longer-lasting live tracks. The existing engine has been retained, but a new transmission has been added which is automatic. (If the driver wishes, he may also drive in manual transmission mode.) There are lugs on the glacis, turret front, and turret sides for reactive armor.
Twilight 2000 Notes: This vehicle does not exist.

Zulfiqar
Notes: Intelligence reports first noted this variant of the M-60 in Iran in 1996. The suspension is beefed up to handle additional weight; the turret has additional appliqué armor similar to the Cadillac Gage Upgrade Package. In addition, there are lugs for reactive armor on the turret front, turret sides, hull front, and hull sides. Large boxes on the sides of the turret contain equipment; in addition there is a basket on the rear of the turret. The turret itself is long, flat, and well-sloped. It is believed that there is a layer of composite armor on the glacis and turret. The engine is replaced with a more powerful one, and the transmission is automatic.
