During the struggle for its independence from the French, Algeria gained powerful allies, such as the Soviet Union, so it should not be surprising that the Algerian army has been equipped primarily with Soviet military equipment from the 1960s onward. These included a substantial number of armored vehicles and tanks. Some of the hardware delivered in this era has remained in service and is seemingly well-appreciated even up to this day, most notably the T-55. This could not be said for the later T-62, which was supplied in the late 1970s. Due to a troublesome history, it was largely overshadowed by the tanks that came before and after it. However, in recent years, attempts were made after decades in service to finally improve the combat effectiveness of the aging T-62 by upgrading it with the Russian Berezhok turret.

This makes a lot of sense, you have T-90s and T-72s as your primary MBTs, using the T-62s with this upgrade gives you a decent IFV or fire support vehicle with potent anti tank capability of Kornet missiles. The 30mm auto cannon and grenade launcher is good for anti infantry and soft skin targets

3:38 As a former T-55 commander at the 31th Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the 12th Mechanized Infantry Division I can approve that what you said is right T-55 is now just a reserve tank under the 12th MID for fire support

The Berezhok is an upgraded version of the BMP-2 turret that retains the 30 mm 2A42 autocannon and a coaxial 7.62 mm machine gun, while adding a 30 mm AGS-30 automatic grenade launcher and four Kornet anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) mounted in two launchers on either side of the turret, as well as a new fire-control system.

The source for the "rumors" about the t62 being disliked and put out of service just come from a few comments in an algerin blog post called forces dz The upgrade being made because of a lack of 115mm ammunition is also pure speculation Truth is for now we know almost nothing about the details of the upgrade and it is still very new in Algerian service and set to receive upgrades.

T-62 Hull with BMP Turret or the same T-62 turret but with a 30mm auto cannon with APFSDS rounds and Missiles/Drone launchers can be a key arm in the field

Protection beyond 30mm autocannon and 40mm HE is probably not cost effective these days considering tank on tank battles are very unlikely and when you will need expensive laminate/ceramic armour coupled with ERA just to have a 10% survival possibility against RPGs and ATGMs. May as well protect the armour assets actively with tactics, recon and force protection against RPGs and ATGMs whilst ensuring survivability against cannon, shrapnel, light HE and small arms during assault support.
