Historical details of the M47 Patton tank

The M47 Patton tank was developed by the United States as part of the modernization of armored fleets after World War II. The first units entered service in 1951, replacing the outdated M26 Pershing tanks. The vehicle was powered by a Continental AV-1790 gasoline engine and equipped with a 90 mm caliber gun. Thanks to its universal design and reliability, the M47 Patton quickly became the main battle tank for many allied armies: Italy, West Germany, France, Belgium, Turkey, as well as countries in the Middle East and Asia such as Iran, Pakistan, and South Korea.
