* '''T-72M1 Mod. 2022''' – T-72M1 modernised with Elbit's Thermal Imaging Fire Control System, giving the gunner 3rd generation+ thermal imaging capabilities along with a new laser range finder capable of lasing up to 9 km away. The system also includes a [[battlefield management system]], four laser warning receives, a new fire control system with a metrological sensor, new thermal sleeve for the [[2A46 125 mm gun]], and thermal night time cameras for the driver. The T-72M1 Mod. 2022 is also one of the few T-72s to receive an [[auxiliary power unit]] (APU) that allows the tank to have a "silent watch" capability, allowing it to operate all its system with the engine turned off to save fuel and reduce the tank's thermal emissions and acoustic signature. The tank was modernised locally at "Terem - Khan Krum" EOOD in Targovishte.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.janes.com/defence-news/news-detail/bulgaria-unveils-modernised-t-72|title= Bulgaria unveils modernised T-72 |author= Christopher Petrov |date= 21 June 2022|access-date= 3 November 2022}}</ref>
