DK-1

     Notes: The DK-1 (also known as the M41 DK) is a radical upgrade of the M41 Walker Bulldog light tank.  These upgrades were performed in the 1980s, and the DK-1 served until 1999. Upgrades included a new, smaller and more powerful Cummins VTA-903TR 465-horsepower engine, an internal automatic fire/explosion detection/suppression system, internal ammunition stowage has been rearranged for more room, electrical turret rotation and gun controls, a collective NBC system, night vision, a laser rangefinder, and the replacement of the machineguns with new ones.  Four grenade launchers were mounted on each side of the turret. Appliqué armor has been added, including side skirts based on those of the Leopard 1.

     Twilight 2000 Notes: 53 of these conversions were carried out by the Twilight War, and an unknown, though small, number after the start of the war.
