Historical background:In service from 1983 to 2001, the Challenger 1 played a defining role in British armored warfare. It first saw combat during the Gulf War in 1991, where it demonstrated exceptional accuracy and reliability. Continuous upgrades — particularly the additional armor on the Mk.3 version — made it one of the best-protected tanks of its era. Powered by a 1,200 hp engine, this 62-ton vehicle could reach speeds of up to 56 km/h, combining strength with surprising mobility.
