The T-54 BTR Conversion is a modified version of the Soviet T-54 tank, which was widely used by many countries around the world. The conversion was done by Israel, who captured many T-54 tanks from their enemies in the Arab-Israeli wars. The conversion involved removing the turret and adding a troop compartment with a rear door and roof hatches. The T-54 BTR Conversion was used as an armored personnel carrier (APC) by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in various operations, such as the Yom Kippur War and the Lebanon War. The T-54 BTR Conversion offered better protection and mobility than the regular BTR series of APCs, but it was also heavier and more expensive to maintain. The T-54 BTR Conversion was eventually replaced by more modern APCs, such as the M113 and the Achzarit.
