About
Continued updates to the Type 85 main battle tank led to the Type 85-III variant, which NORINCO developed in the mid-1990s. Like the Type 85-IIM, the Type 85-III was designed with a 125mm smoothbore gun as its main armament. It also featured modular composite armor, a 1000-hp diesel engine, and an autoloader.
