OverviewThe Challenger 1 Main Battle Tank was Great Britain's second purpose-designed Main Battle Tank and served as the spear point of the Royal Armoured Corps for nearly 20 years. The Challenger 1 proved to be an excellent combat vehicle in Operation Granby after a controversial early career in the British Army, and it continues to serve the Jordanian army to the present day. Robert Griffin tells the story of the Challenger 1's development and service, in this first volume of a two part study for the Kagero Photosniper series. * The new format of the book - A4 * about 80 pages * 280 archive photos * mate coated paper * soft cover binding Full Product DetailsAuthor: Robert GriffinPublisher: Kagero Oficyna Wydawnicza Imprint: Kagero Oficyna Wydawnicza Dimensions: Width: 29.70cm , Height: 0.80cm , Length: 21.00cm Weight: 0.367kg ISBN: 9788362878956ISBN 10: 8362878959 Pages: 80 Publication Date: 28 February 2014 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
