On a spending spree, the Honduras army has been buying yet more tanks, this time from the US Marine Corps. The tanks are M60's with ERA fitted and a new bigger gun as also fitted to the Abram's and the Merkava MBT, both of which are in service with the Marines and Honduras task force.
The tanks were to begin with in pretty good shape, so apart from the gun fitment, new set of tracks and a new paint job, the tanks were a quick and cheap upgrade. A new electronics upgrade has been offered by the Israeli's also for the M60's and it has been approved  for fitting into each tank when it goes in for a major service.
Cheers,
Chris.
