sexton Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Hi, we (Ontario Regiment Museum in Canada) have acquired a T72, apparently an old one, circa 1973. She's not in bad shape. I'd like to get the autoloader functioning even at the risk of museum members losing limbs. But I know from working on Centurion and Chieftain gun control elecronics that wiring diagrams and an explanation of the logic is pretty well mandatory to do that. Anyone know of any translated manuals on this subject? Thanks, Malcolm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attleej Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Malcolm, I do know that there were some translated T55 manuals produced, probably 'just in case'. I would have thought that there would have been T72 manuals translated so it is worth looking hard. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexton Posted March 2, 2023 Author Share Posted March 2, 2023 John, we have some translated manuals, but only for the operation of the tank. They don't include detailed wiring diagrams or summaries of the control logic. Those would be in a somewhat specialized manual for the techs troubleshooting auto loader problems. I had a hard time finding this kind of stuff for the Cent and the Chieftain. I suspect translated manuals are just not out there for Russian stuff Malcolm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiscsepi Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Hello. I have a manual for a vt55 tank. would you now need an electronic circuit diagram of the motor and the controller? or the turret (gun) to the electronic drawing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexton Posted March 13, 2023 Author Share Posted March 13, 2023 Hi, Kiscsepi, I specifically need logic and wiring diagrams for the auto loader. I don’t believe the T55 has an auto loader. Thanks, Malcolm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nem hiszem, hogy a T55-nek van automata rakodója. Köszönöm, Malcolm I will look after it. Maybe I can help, here in Hungary we still have T-72 and other tanks. Can we still talk privately?
