Fancy paint job....
The upgrades you've mentioned have been present since ancient time.... (hint: 2nd gen TI)'Al-Zarrar incorporates about 54 modifications to the original Type 59 main battle tank. The main modifications include improvements to armament, ballistic and armour protection, the fire control system, mobility and GPS. The fire control system features semi-automatic loading, computerised image stabilisation and thermal imaging for day and night combat.'

I'm by no means saying that Al-Zarrar is a lousy tank (even though the hollow armour freak me out tho) since it's not supposed to be our front line tank anyway....
We have our sights set on the AK2 to see if we're making progress or not....
AZ was recently upgraded but no clear image was available, this is the first one.
It has a better armor, better rubber tracks, new skirts, cooling system, upgraded sights and new BMS.
Apt details are available here.

It is one of the most comprehensive T-54/55 series refits that I'm aware of are in existence.
What's the further upgradation?? These tanks are obsolete as it is even in the "upgraded" form and are only good for fighting terrorists. They're just T-54/55's upgraded with a few modernized electronics and new gun. Against india's massive fleet of T-72's and T-90's these T-54/55 derivatives don't stand a chance.@Ulla | This is a further upgrade on AZ3 revealed at IDEAS last year.
The APC known as the "Achzarit" is an APC which is based on the "Tiran" a Russian model captured in combat- the T-55/T-54. The tank has been converted by the Armament Corps into a heavy APC. The motor and gearbox have been changed, with additional armored plating, an external rear exit and updated suspension in order to improve maneuvering and handling. The Achzarit has advanced armored plating, and is equipped with four MAG machine guns, one of which is controlled from the inside of the vehicle, and a smoke-grenade launcher of IDF manufacture. The APC started serving the IDF at the end of the 80s, and has served in the northern region of the country since then. In recent years it has begun entering service in Judea, Samaria, and the Gaza regions. In 2005 certain models of the Achzarit were updated to serve as ambulance/APC.
