I’m not sure about the ammo. This vehicle didn’t see much service.Ammo shouldn’t be issue. Gaijin always doesn’t give historical ammo. Currently Oto melera guns are used in ceremonies so they might have stopped buying new ammo for it. Currently Bangladesh produces 105mm HE rounds for howitzers. Maybe those are used nowadays. But I’m not sure which rounds were used back then.

It’s also interesting to note that judging by the color scheme and background, this does not appear to be the same example at Bangabandhu Military Museum, so there’s quite possibly another vehicle on active display somewhere.

This is at Sylhet Cadet College. https://maps.app.goo.gl/mhcqaeHiHw9Dt6N39?g_st=ac

I see, looks like a while ago too as nowadays there are more/higher trees and the wall in the foreground has been painted purple.

street view is actually from 2023. This picture was sent to me by a friend, so I don’t really know when this picture was taken

Still appears much older to me, but regardless, it’s safe to assume that the vehicle has probably been moved somewhere else lol

Rusty Type 62 SPH (Ignore the background music, I found this video on Instagram)

It should be pretty easy to model at least, as there is plenty of footage online of the vehicle from visitors to the Bangabandhu Military Museum. One such video I found provided this closeup of the exhibit plaque. Since this is from the museum themselves, it should count as a primary source.

Note that this suggests that the 37mm armed vehicle is an IFV, not an SPAA. Hopefully this clears up the confusion you mentioned in your suggestion for it.

Looks like one of the variants of the Type 62 IFV. Been suggested by OP here: Type 62 IFV

This tank has the barrel from the original Type 62 but the breech is fake. OTO melara mod.56 105mm howitzers are still in service of Bangladesh army, which is why they didn’t keep that howitzer.
Edit: Barrel is fake as well.

Are you from Bangladesh?

Cool!! I want it! Nice work.

+1. Give it HEAT-FS (if it was ever compatible with short 105s) or another more powerful AT shell and fairly fast firerate for a SPH so these make it more than a viable addition
