An Unfulfilled Scout | PT-76B in Yugoslavian Service

Описание: During the 1960s, the Jugoslovenska Narodna Armija, JNA (Yugoslavian People Army, YPA) wanted to replace their aging Second World War reconnaissance armored cars. Given the good military cooperation between Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, it was logical for the JNA military to ask the Soviets for such equipment. By the late 1960s, an agreement was sought for purchasing 63 PT-76B amphibious light tanks. These would be used to reinforce the reconnaissance elements of many armored units. During the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s, these would see action mostly as fire support vehicles.
