T-55AM 'Merida'

More like anti Molotov Cocktail shields. Oppressing the proletariat an’t eazy.

An obvious +1 for Polish/Polish-modified vehicles.

Just Warno things.

Suprisingly, I dont see many T-55AM Meridas from the martial law period

Easy and obvious +1 for a fully independent Polish TT. Then have the T-55AMS as a premium version!

Interesting! I didn’t know of the precise differences this had from the Soviet AM-1, so this was informative! +1

Yup, additionally Poland also used the czech T-55AM2B (T-55AM2BP in Polish production), which essentially was the same as a AM-1, so it could fill that gap if needed. This version is almost completely different, almost a new tank even.

AMS would be interesting, hopefully they could implement the mine clearing charges. Wouldnt be meta, but could work like the matilda hedgehog

Would be funny as hell to roll up to the edge of a point held by open top/lightly armored vehicles and just drape two 550kg explosive turds over the entire length of the point.

Honestly I’d rather not. Just the dozer blade. Mine charges would be essentially useless as it’s just a thin rope of C4, and instead they would just be giant targets that give away any hope of stealth

Yes for Soviet tree, dunno why you left that one out of the “What tech tree?” but should be added since polish stuff should eventually go there

+1 for a new tree, maybe it could get a skin based of its use in Latvia like how other countries camos already do?

This is czech T-55AM2 in Latvian service. Im having a hard time finding any photos of the Merida donated in 1999.

Ah got the AMs mixed up mb

Latvia did use Merida though, just hard to find pictures

I see what you mean, every image of the Latvian T-55 I saw is just 203 as seen in the image.

Matrial Law was in 1981-83 period. T-55AM Merida entered production in 1986, it did not even exist in that period

Yeah I forgot to edit that out I got the times confused
