Despite their advanced age, Soviet tanks of the first post-war generation can still be used to perform various combat missions. For example, the T-62, used by many States, including during various armed conflicts, began to be turned into tank support combat vehicles in the Algerian army.

They were first demonstrated last summer, in early July, during the parade in honor of the 60th anniversary of independence of the Algerian People's Democratic Republic.

As the project "RG: Russian Weapons" noted at the time, heavy turrets with 115-mm 2A20 "Hammer" guns were replaced with Berezhok modules similar to those installed on the BMP-2M.

As a result, a sample of equipment capable of effectively destroying various manpower from a 30-mm 2A42 cannon, a 30-mm AG-30 automatic grenade launcher and a 7.62-mm PKTM machine gun was obtained. To combat tanks such as the M1 Abrams, there are powerful guided missiles "Cornet".

Earlier there was information that this interesting modernization of the "sixty-second" could receive the designation BMPT-62.
