T-55

T-54/55, a Soviet MBT, is the most produced tank in the world, with some 85-100.00 thousand tanks (sources varies) ever built by Soviet Uralvagonzavod, Polish Bumar-Łabędy Works and Czechoslovakian ZTS Martin.

Like T-34, due to the sheer number of units built it was often used in the movies. Examples are:
- "Rozmowy kontrolowane" (Controlled Calls; during the martial law in Poland every phone call started with a message "Call controlled, call controlled"): Ryszard "Miś" Ochódzki accidentaly destroyed a T-54/55 tank which was chasing him after a fatal misunderstand (illegal "Solidarity" materials were found in his car and nobody believed that he's a secret police's agent) by throwing a bottle of moonshine that ignited on contact with the tank. Interestingly the fire appeared everywhere, but just NOT in the place where the bottle landed.
- "Popiełuszko" - several tanks were seen rolling in front of the priest's car.
- "Operacja Dunaj" - a comedy about Czechoslovakia invasion. One of the scenes involves a combat between T-34 and T-54/55.

A T-54 tank was involved in the tragedy during 1962 Szczecin Military Parade. The road wasn't properly secured and people were standing too close to the moving vehicle. Suddenly one of the T-54s - travelling at the speed of 30 km/h, as the last in the line, veered to the roadside and into a group of people. We'll never know if the driver was drunk or if there was another reason. 7 children were crushed under its tracks, 43 people were injured (including those harmed after the panic broke out among the people).
