Tamiya makes the Enigma after all.
The Peruvian version is also interesting with the ATGMs on it. I'd be worried about them getting hit by either shrapnel or auto-cannon rounds and detonating though. Though the jet from the shaped charge is aimed away from the carrier tank at least.
I'm kind of thinking......
Malyutka is said to be one of the cheapest ATGMs around.
I wonder if it'd still be true for Malyutka M2T, which has the warhead taken from MILAN 2T......

I can't think of a backstory for it, but how would a T-55 Leon 1 re-armed with Malyutka M2T on ATGM rails and upgraded with Enigma armours have sounded?

I think that this upgrade might be one of the best looking ones out there for the T-55. Now put a NATO compatible 120 mm smooth bore on it and it would be great. I figure if the Ukrainians can do it then the Israelis certainly can as well. Of course I am not sure how useful it would be fighting from a good hull down position as most Soviet era tanks have dismal gum depression.
PRC came up with one such 120mm gun.

The caption says:
"59-120 is a modification built on a basic Type 59. The fire control system was not correspondingly upgraded. This is a proof of concept vehicle intended to demonstrate that it is possible to fit a 120mm or larger gun to a Type 59 without major modifications to the turret."

Apparently Israel didn't leave T-72 alone, either.
