The Tiran 1 was an unmodified T-54, and the Tiran 2 was an unmodified T-55. The Tiran 4 was a modified T-54 with new jerry can and stowage boxes added to the exterior of the vehicle, as well as a change to the loader's hatch, and the addition of turret mounted exterior machineguns. The Tiran 5 was the same modification program as the Tiran 4, but for the T-55 tank. As the IDF introduced more modern tanks into its arsenal, some "spare" Tirans found their way into the hands of Israel's local allies, such as the "South Lebanese Army" based as the name implies, in southern Lebanon.
