Fictional LORE

In the mid-1980s, Iran decided to support various militant groups in the Middle East as part of its broader strategy to exert influence in the region. One significant move was Iran's decision to gift a number of its T-55 tanks to the Palestinian militant group Hamas. The tanks, which were of Soviet origin, had been part of Iran's inventory since the 1970s. These tanks had seen service during the Iran-Iraq War and were gradually being phased out as more modern tanks became available.

The decision to transfer these tanks to Hamas was likely driven by several factors. First, it served to bolster Hamas's military capabilities, providing them with heavy armor that could be used in their operations. Second, it was a symbolic gesture, reinforcing the close ties between Iran and Hamas. Lastly, it helped Iran maintain its influence in the Palestinian territories by directly supplying advanced military equipment.

Upon receiving these tanks, Hamas decided to rename them "Fajr-1," which translates to "Dawn" in Arabic. This name was chosen to reflect the group's aspirations and to symbolize the beginning of a new era in their military capabilities. The Fajr-1 tanks, though outdated compared to more modern armored vehicles, provided Hamas with a significant boost in firepower and armor, making them a formidable asset in their conflict with Israel.

These tanks were likely modified by Hamas to suit their operational needs, including possible upgrades to armor and armament. However, due to the limitations of the T-55 platform and the challenging conditions under which Hamas operates, the Fajr-1 tanks' effectiveness in combat would have been limited. Nonetheless, the transfer of these tanks marked a significant step in the military relationship between Iran and Hamas, further entrenching Iran's role as a key supporter of the group.
