Iran has unveiled what it presented as a new tank called the Karrar, but is clearly a T-72 upgraded with a new turret and other systems. The Karrar was unveiled during a ceremony attended by Minister of Defence Hos-sein Dehghan on 12 March and presented as a rival to the most modern tank types. Dehghan was quoted as saying the tank is "100% Iranian made" and "even superior to the Russian-made T-90MS in certain aspects".
