This book, the last in a four-part series on British Battle Tanks
covering the whole history of British armoured warfare, concentrates
on those vehicles that have served following the end of World War II
up to the present day. Starting with the Centurion, the title explores
those types that equipped the armoured divisions lined up on the
German plains to resist any potential Soviet offensive, as well as in
Korea and Suez, including the Chieftain and Conqueror, and modern
tanks such as the Challenger 2 which are still in service today.
Covering the many variants of these and other tanks in British service
as well as their deployments around the world, including in
Afghanistan and Iraq, this illustrated volume is a comprehensive guide
to the development of British tanks since the Second World War.
