Conversion training of the crew to the Al-Khalid. The most important part is the conversion of the driver as the drivers are used to the 750HP T-59. The 1200HP turbo charged engine of the Al-Khalid gives a kick that very few tanks (or cars for that matter) possess.

Another Al-Khalid gives a small demonstration. This one is right of the HIT Al-Khalid production line, still missing the final touches such as the ERA Plates and Grenade Launchers.
