Chinese Taip 63 amphibious tank was based on the Soviet amphibious tank PT 76 (plavuščiji tank). The updated version has entered into operation in 1997 in a Chinese naval infantry and later in other units.

In addition to cross rivers and lakes are Korst tank and naval and parachute landing, which was achieved by redesigning the new dome and body modifications and lets assault operations at a distance of 10 km from the coast.

The problem of the tank is weak armored protection, specifically armor is thin because they have to keep konstrukotori weaker armor because of the weight that must remain low.

Armament is a 105 mm stabilized in both flat compared to the first series which had a 85 mm cannon that fires APFSDS and HEAT ammunition, which provides breakthrough armor thickness of 500 mm at 2 km distance.

The tank should be in the future to get the anti-missile 9M117 Bastion range of 5000 m. The tank is built and SUVs instead of optical sights.

Taipei 63A has a 7.62-mm machine guns, coupled with a dome and 12.7 mm mounted on a turret

The crew consists of four members: commander, shooter, charger and driver. The tank has a turbo diesel engine 580 hp in Kosovo as a percentage of an early version of 63A has a more powerful engine.
