If i may sidetrack..Israel unloaded quite a number of amx-13s (riddled with bullet holes) on Singapore right after the war. I will not be surprised if at least one of these two vehicles are actually still in service with us. Here's a link to another thread where you can see an upgraded incarnation of the tank

Here's the product brochure of the SM1

And here's a video that features some rare footage of the tank (in service with SAF) in the sixties and seventies.

Anyway the SM1s are gradually being phased out to make room for the Leopard 2A4s
