The British Army’s main Battle Tank from the late 1960s until the 1990s, the Chieftain was developed to counter the latest Soviet heavy tanks, but with firepower being its primary consideration.
The Chieftain featured a powerful and incredibly accurate 120mm gun, with British crews posting impressively high first hit rate performance when using it during training.
Thankfully, this Cold War sentinel never had to fire its main gun in anger.
