The British can build some great stuff.
There were flops too, just like any othersociety.
I’d prefer Challenger over the Leopard.

“Be sure to drink your Ovaltine” A crummy commercial?
I was hoping to see how warfare was going to be “transformed” by hanging some more sensors on the turret of their really cool black spray-painted tank. Instead, their propaganda brochure illustrates all the things on that turret susceptible to disabling by everything from a rock throwing peasant to EMP strike.
And, if they were indeed “tank men” they would certainly know that a static tank, sitting in a place for 24 hours emitting an electronic and/or heat signature, is a dead tank...
