The lovechild of T55 and M18 was born during the war in Bosnia. Bosnian Serb T55 was knocked out by Bosnian Muslim forces and captured. It was not damaged enough so they used it in their army.

Some months latter Bosnian Serbs in a battle hit the same tank pretty good (or bad if you are in the tank) and the turret was destroyed. After that battle the Serbs checked out the wreckage and found out that it can still move. Just had no turret. And good old Balkan ingenuity did the rest. When the tank was brought to the shop someone noticed that the turret ring is just about like the M18s of which a few were lying around. And voila.

The tank changed hands again a year later when it was stuck im mud and captured again by Bosnians where it stayed to the end of the war. And it is possible that the original T55 was captured by the Serbs from the Croats so this tank fought for every side in the war anainst every other side. A hero and enemy of all 3 sides of the war.
