The T-55 is a very old Soviet design, if I remember right the T-55 was current in the late 50's early 60's. While it's still dangerous this might be close to shooting fish in a barrel.

T-55's might be dangerous to troops in the open but unless they're some sort of upgrade they're next to useless against state of the art weapons. I'd hate to be an Iraqi crew member.

I *think* the T-34's, used by the Soviets in WWII (which were the bst tanks of the war) were largely enginnered by Americans...doubt if many subsequent models were though.
