Μ48Α5 With shovel Type: Battle Tank Origin: USA Year of manufacture: 1952-1960 Crew: 4 (Commander, Gunner, Loader, Driver) Dimensions: 9.306 x 3.63 x 3.29 (without the ‘shovel’) Weight: 48,988 kg Engine: Continental AVDS-1790-2A, 12-cylinder, diesel engine, 750 bhp Armament: 105 mm machine gun, 7.62 mm coaxial machine gun, 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine gun The M48A5 differs from the M48A3 in that it has a more powerful gun. The bulldozer-like blade mounted on the hull is called a shovel (‘ptyo’ is ancient Greek) and in the military it is often called a “knife”. With the blade the tank can create a protective rampart or fill a crater from an explosion so that it and other tanks can pass through.
