Than you really don't know much about tanks. This is the British Chieftain tank, the successor of their Centurion tank and the predecessor of the Challenger 1.
-
I seem to remember that the Chieftains were built by Vickers in a factory that was about a mile long(!). Bolshie unions were conspicuous by their absence in this case.
Bovington is fantastic - I did a work placement there in 1993. It is also excellent for the T E Lawrence exhibition.

All jokin' aside, much respect to the British soldiers out there. You boys are real pros!
-
Weren't these tanks built by Leyland? I'm surprised anyone could keep them running, or, that they ever got built at all. Guess the constant strikes didn't effect military production.
