NS is to upgrade and unify it's tank force which consists of SMA T-62Y and Y2s. A new version called the T-62YM has been developed which has an improved gun barrel, enhanced EO sensors and a new engine supercharger boosting power. Communication has also been improved with enhanced encryption to match a new NS Terrestrial Force standard. The tank computer has also been upgraded.
No new YMs will be built but all existing tanks will be upgraded as part of a general refurbishment and rebuild over the next couple of years. The total number of tanks NSTF currently field is a secret though has been reported in the 750-800 range by some publications.
