Their tanks were small and used mostly to defend sectors. An FT17 could not take on a A7V tank, like it took 3 whippet (MKIV) tanks to stop the Germans at Amien. The French Char 2c behemoth was never properly fielded. And most Japanese tanks were in the jungles of Burma and based in Okinawa or China. Best tanks of 20th century are German, British, US, Soviet as they were all fielded in large battles

Now that you've covered most of the main players in armored warfare, I think French tank design would be a good one to discuss. While they've had similar difficulties as the British in implementing tank design, they have also been a catalyst in tank development since the Interwar period. While they have definitely had some wacky designs, they also pushed into common practice the standard tank layout, seen to this day.

Just a Note, Chally wasn’t an evolution of Chieftain, the two are separate designs sharing a main gun. Chally has different suspension, sights, armour, secondary armament, hull, chassis, and engine. And Challenger 1 was found to be one of the most reliable tanks in the desert, not the least. As for Challenger 2, it does not feature the same gun as Challenger 1, the 120mm L11A1 rifle, it instead features the improved L30A1 rifle with a 2 part breech block and an improved firing mechanism that reduces failures and the breech allows for far higher pressures. Challenger 2 was not found to fail its initial tests, but rather went through extensive testing to ensure the crews liked it and the designers got feedback, such as the installation of a 1x periscope for the gunner.

@HJDore Жыл бұрын

Challenger is indeed essentially an evolution of Chieftain. Challenger traces its roots back to when it was named Shir 2 intended for use with the Iranian army to replace their chieftains however due to the Iranian revolution putting an end to the order and British MBT 80 running hopelessly over budget with not even a prototype design finalized it was decided that Royal ordinance’s FV4034 would be slightly reworked and pressed into service under the name “challenger”

He should have mentioned what the Centurions did in Korea. They blasted the living sh*t out of the Communist T34s, at least one encounter between the Soviet-built icon and Britain's then-modern titan was described by witnesses as a "Single shot dismantling". American troops loved working with the Centurion forces not only for their amazing firepower, but because it was one of the few large tanks that performed well in steep hilly or mountainous terrain. The Brits literally changed warfare when those armored giants rolled into service.

We would set up our screen, (it operated like a window shade mounted on a tripod. It kept clean in its container and was unrolled and held in place with an extension on the tripod). We would then place our projector on a wooden chair to keep it stable and set the focus. We not only had movies that we took ourselves, but also a hand full of pre-recoded films like cartoons or stop motion movies. Fun memories, Thanks. As to what tanks I would like to see, the "Funnies" of WWII. These are the ones made to clear minefields, or provide bridges, etc.

Agree with other comments that French or Japanese tanks should probably be next, and maybe Chinese after that. Just to put the thought out there though, a later video on Swedish tanks would be interesting. I know most Swedish tanks were imported designs, like the Centurion and Leopard 2, but Sweden is still the only Nordic country to develop and field their own tank - Strv 103 (otherwise known as the S-tank). Also, the Strv 2000 conceptual tank intrigues me and could use a video on it's own since there's not a lot of content about it on KZfaq. Anyway, imported or domestically designed, like all nations there is an interesting doctrine behind Swedish defense development from WWII throughout the Cold War in the 'armed neutrality' concept which influenced a lot of the Swedish decisions to import and modify foreign tank designs, as well as develop it's own. In that respect, a video on the development of the Swedish air force would be even better.
