We are to modernize the T-72 tanks, Bulgaria’s Minister of Defense Krasimir Karakachanov said. It will be much cheaper to modernize a high-quality tank such as the T-72 machine and equip it with sighting systems than buy a new tank which is 5 to 6 times more expensive, Krasimir Karakachanov went on to say and added that the German company Lürssen was selected to build two multi-role corvettes for the Bulgarian navy and talks on the final contract are now being held.
