The label on the vehicle was not in English. You also need a degree in T85 design to tell the difference between a war-time and post-war production tank when there are no obvious late features.

Both the mushroom ventilators were at the rear of the turret, but I have seen this on post-war production tanks as well. The turret casting was also neither particularly rough or smoth.

I assume if your suggestion is correct that it was captured in Korea.

There were also repairs to the turret side and round one of the hooks on the front of the hull.
