What is old is new again, the case of ST2 tracked 105mm anti-tank gun

Back in 2008 the PLA told Norinco no to retrofitting a Type 63A 105mm tank turret to older generation of ZSD-89 APC as a next step to extend the life of those old workhorses.

With no internal adoption, the sole copy of this hybrid concept is now a museum display.  Well, well, well, the concept is still alive and well, it is repackaged as ST2 Tank Destroying Vehicle (TDV), targeting  Norinco's foreign customers.   Best of luck.
