The SK-105 Kurassier is an Austrian light tank and tank destroyer built by Saurer-Werk, later Steyr-Daimler-Puch, and armed with a rifled 105 millimeter gun mounted in an oscillating turret. It shares its main armament with the French AMX-13 and was designed for operation in mountainous terrain. Initial deliveries began in 1971, hull production continued until February 2001, and an estimated 600 to 700 vehicles were built.
