Ukraine offered Brazil the option of modernizing the M60 tank proposed by the Malyshev Plant. This was reported by the Ukrainian militaristic portal.
Even before 2014, in Ukraine, the Kharkiv Design Bureau for Mechanical Engineering was working on the modernization of an American-made tank.
The domestic modernization of the M60 tank includes the replacement of the turret with a 120 mm cannon, the engine (1,200 hp, 6TD2), the installation of dynamic protection and the Zaslon active protection complex.
The battle tank’s tower was proposed to be replaced with a similar one from the Yatagan tank.
As a new engine, it was proposed to install a domestic two-stroke opposed 6-cylinder diesel engine of the 6TD family.
