Item no.: TAN-9031
- Description
The
FV4201 Chieftain was the first purposely designed main battle tank
(MBT) of the British Army, and the main weapon system of the Royal
Armoured Corps for most of the Cold War era. When it entered service in
the 1960s it replaced the medium and heavy gun tanks in service with the
British Army at that time, namely the FV4007 Centurion and FV214
Conqueror. The Chieftain was designed to dominate the battlefields of
Western Europe if the Cold War ever turned hot, plus it was engineered
to be superior to Soviet tank designs. In total, the British Army
eventually received 941 FV4201 Chieftain MBTs. This publication
describes meticulously and in great detail the various variants (Marks)
of the Chieftain as well as the tank's development and technology. For
this purpose it almost exclusively uses hitherto unpublished photographs
taken on various exercises.
