>Switzerland had no tank-building capability until the 1950s, when it decided to build the Panzer 58, armed with a Swiss-produced 90mm/3.54in gun, to replace their ageing fleet of British Centurions. In the mid 1960s this MBT was replaced by Panzer 61, armed with a British gun. Based on the previous Pz 58, itself a development of the American M48/M60 series, the Pz 61 was designed and built by RUAG Land Systems, its appearance resembling it's predecessors.

according to this source.

Also, i doubt the Swiss had no tank building capability until the 50's, since the Nahkampfkanone 2 exists.
