The British Army's Challenger II Main Battle Tank is one of the most awesome war machines ever built. In March 2003, three Squadrons of Challenger 2s from the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, part of Britain's 7th Armoured Brigade, the fabled Desert Rats, gathered in Southern Iraq to prepare for battle.The Army's newest Big Guns were going to war for the first time. But Operation TELIC was a war which the Challenger 2, designed to operate in the fog and mud of the Central European Plain, had never been expected to fight. And one that would quickly break every rule of tank warfare including the golden maxim: never take a tank into a town. In Main Battle Tank, author Niall Edworthy, granted unprecedented access to the Scots DGs, tells the story of an extraordinary chapter in the history of British Army. From the terrifying rescue of a stricken Challenger 2 and countless nerve-shredding raids into Basra and Az Zubyar, to the biggest tank engagement fought by the British since the end of WWII, Main Battle Tank is the brutal, blistering true story of a war that tested man and machine to the bloody limit.

The menacing silhouette of the T-54 tank prowling down streets of Eastern European capitals or roaring across fields in massive exercises remains one of the most enduring images of Soviet power in the early years of the Cold War. Its sleek and unmistakable shape was a warning to any nation that wanted to stand against the USSR. Yet all of this masked a flawed, outdated design, and when T-54s began to clash with the Western armoured vehicles in proxy wars in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, they were found to be on the losing side of many of the battles. Containing over 500 stunning contemporary and modern photographs, and written by two experts on Soviet armour, this authoritative book tells the complete story of the T-54, one of the most widely produced tanks of all time, including many previously unheard of variants.

Developed from the late 1970s, the T-80 represents the final phase of Soviet tank development in the era before the break-up of the Soviet Union and the emergence of the Russian Federation and the other new states created as the Soviet Union gradually imploded. Amongst the most technologically advanced of all amour to have emerged from the old Soviet Union, the T-80 and its later variants, such as the T-90 'Black Eagle', remain central to the Russian army's armored units as well as the armies of several of the ex-Soviet states, such as the Ukraine. In addition to service with the forces of the erstwhile Soviet union, the T-80 has also found a significant place in the global market place with orders from, amongst others, Pakistan and Korea. In the third of the new 'Russian Armour' series, Mikhail Baryatinskiy provides the reader with a comprehensive account of the development and operational record of the T-80 main battle tank. Utilising photographs, line drawings and specially prepared artworks, he provides a detailed portrait of these highly successful tanks. The book includes six chapters. Chapter 1 describes the T-80's development history; chapter 2 deals with the production of the baseline diesel-engine T-80 and its subsequent modernization to T-80BV standard, a detailed structural description of the T-80B following in Chapter 3. The next chapter describes the production of the turbine-powered T-80U and its mid-life upgrade, the T-80UD. Chapter 5 gives an account of the T-80's service, including combat use by the Russian Army. Finally, Chapter 6 describes the T-80U's further development into the most advanced Russian tank of today, the T-90 'Black Eagle'. Aimed at themodeler, military historian and war-gamer, the new 'Russian Armour' series is designed to provide, probably for the first time in the English language, authoritative information on the classic Soviet tank designs of the 20th century. The series will be required reading for all those interested in the development of armored warfare over the past 100 years.

Entering service in the early 1960s, the M60 tank was in production for 23 years and formed the backbone of US Army and Marine armoured units during the Cold War. Over 15,000 were built in four basic models: the M60, M60A1, M60A2, and the M60A3. Although the M60 had been phased out of US Army service by the time Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, M60s were amongst the first Allied tanks to enter Kuwait City with the US Marines. This book examines the design and deployment of the M60, a very widely used vehicle that is still in service today.

“A well-thought out, well-produced, authoritative introduction to the Tank . . . Excellent for both the modeler and military or vehicle historian.” —Army Rumour Service The British Chieftain—designed in the late 1950s as the replacement for the Centurion—was perhaps the best main battle tank in service with Nato during the 1960s and 1970s. Its 120mm rifled main gun and advanced armor made it one of the most formidable tanks of its time, and Robert Jackson’s book is an authoritative introduction to it. Although it was intended to fight Soviet armor on the plains of northern Germany, it was in the heat and sand of the Middle East that the Chieftain fought its major battles during the Iran–Iraq War of the 1980s, and it proved to be very effective during the Gulf War of 1991. Variants of the Chieftain were exported to Iran, Oman, India, Kenya and Nigeria, and its chassis was adapted to fulfill a variety of tasks, including armored recovery and bridge-laying. As well as tracing the history of the Chieftain, Robert Jackson’s work provides an excellent source of reference for the modeler, providing details of available kits and photographs of award-winning models, together with artworks showing the color schemes applied to these tanks. Each section of the book is supported by a wealth of archive photographs. “As usual these books are a great reference for both modelers and war gamers, it contains a plethora of photographs, along with detailed information on the tanks and the regiments that served with the Chieftain.” —Musket, Sword and Paint
