Vehicle Description

A reliable turret and excellent gun elevation/depression angles allow this British medium tank to take advantage of terrain irregularities. The vehicle also boasts an outstanding view range and gun penetration characteristics. On the other hand, this tank has weak side armor, and its movement speed leaves much to be desired.

Historical Reference

A variant of the British post-war Centurion Mk. 5 tank with improved frontal armor, machineguns, and a more powerful engine. The vehicle featured a 100-gallon additional armored fuel tank in the rear, and was not provided with screens. The tank saw service in Australian tank units in Vietnam.
