===Postwar gun-based tank destroyers=== [[File:Senegalese PTL-02 tank destroyer near the Gambian border, c. 2017.png|thumb|Chinese-built PTL-02 tank destroyer armed with a {{convert|100|mm|in|sp=us}} cannon, being used by the Senegalese military near the Gambian border in 2017.]] Despite the proliferation of ATGMs, some gun-armed tank destroyers remain in use. China has developed the tracked [[Type 89 (Tank Destroyer)|PTZ89]] and the wheeled [[PTL02]] tank destroyers. The PTZ89 is armed with a {{nowrap|120 mm}} smoothbore cannon while the PTL02, developed by NORINCO for the PLA's new light (rapid reaction) mechanized infantry divisions, carries a {{convert|100|mm|in|sp=us}} one (a version armed with a 105 mm rifled gun is available for export). The PTL02 is built on the 6Γ6 wheeled chassis of the [[WZ551]] APC. Italy and Spain use the Italian-built [[B1 Centauro]], a wheeled tank destroyer with a {{nowrap|105 mm}} cannon. Russia, meanwhile, uses the Russian-built [[2S25 Sprut-SD]], operating as an amphibious light tank/tank destroyer armed with a {{convert|125|mm|in|sp=us}} cannon. The Sabrah Pandur II is a wheeled tank destroyer variant of the [[Sabrah light tank]] developed by the [[Elbit Systems]] of Israel for the [[Philippine Army]]'s future combat systems.
