Description

As promised to my good friend :iconbezsoba: so I wanted take a few better and more picture of the next times I stopped by.
And here they are.

The Centurion, introduced in 1945, was the primary British main battle tank of the post-World War II period. It was a successful tank design, with upgrades, for many decades. The chassis was also adapted for several other roles.
Development of the tank began in 1943 and manufacture of the Centurion began in January 1945, six prototypes arriving in Belgium less than a month after the war in Europe ended in May 1945. It first entered combat with the British Army in the Korean War in 1950, in support of the UN forces.
It became one of the most widely used tank designs, equipping armies around the world, with some still in service until the 1990s.

This one is a Centurion Mk 12

with its gun L7 (L/51) 105 mm rifled gun
