Kereta kebal Singa Babylon

Kereta kebal Singa Babylon atau Asad Babil (bahasa Arab: اسد بابل) adalah merupakan sebuah versi kereta kebal T-72 buatan Soviet yang dikeluarkan secara berlesen oleh Iraq pada tahun 1980-an. Ia dipasang di sebuah kilang berdekatan Taji, utara Baghdad.

Projek ini menunjukan kesungguhan percubaan oleh kerajaan Saddam Hussein untuk membangunkan pengeluaran sendiri kereta kebal, dicetuskan oleh tindakan beberapa kerajaan Barat yang mengenakan sekatan bagi memaksa rundingan Perang Iran-Iraq.
