I found an interesting picture of what seems to be the PTZ-89's turret on the hull of a Type 69, I think it may have just been a test bed though.

I found what seems to be the PGZ-09 turret on what almost looks like a modified ZBD-04 chassis.

This is a fake vehicle, it was made for film or such thing.

This looks cool and pretty fun to play

How did I not notice this thread existed? Anyway here's a Type 69-II with a laser dazzler. Pity it doesn't have thermals.

I thought I would share some historical photos here.

 

 

Type 59s being produced alongside Dongfanghong tractors at Yituo Factory.

My personal favorite. PLA tankers set free baby Type 63s while their mother waits in the background.

A few questions: The PGZ-09 devblog mentions that the vehicle had a prototype named "Type 90-II". However, on globalsecurity.org and Wikipedia it mentions that the 90-II was a prototype for the PGZ-95, not the 09. Which one is right?

 

I also found this picture of what seems like a PGZ-09 mockup turret on a Type 63 chassis. Maybe this is the elusive Type 90? Can anyone clarify this?

I suppose it does have its quirks, I really liked the setting of the pictures myself, that wonderful sky and grass looks so great with the tank. Supposedly this was supposed to be a competitor for an upgrade for the ZTZ96, but lost out to what is now the 96A.

[jet_17_49 411]

BK1871, supposedly a ZTZ90 prototype

 

WZ-122-3, 3rd prototype made during the 122 project featuring a 120mm semiautoloading gun (I think). I like how whomever made this tank took the effort to put stars on its fender covers.

Apparently the Type 59 Jaguar is still around.

 

Someone posted this on facebook, it was taken at Textron Slidell Louisiana open house.

 

There is no mistake that it is the Type 59 Jaguar.

This is based on the hull of WZ305, not Type 69.

The WZ305 uses a Type 69 hull, so it is essentially the same thing. It does use a Type 69-II hull, but I meant Type 69 more as a general reference, not specifically the Type 69 in game.
