Meilensteine der Panzerentwicklung

When realizing the first tanks, the challenge was to invent usable motors, transmissions, steering devices and chassis. While in the first 50 years of tank development progress was achieved through improvements in mechanical engineering and electromechanics, the increase in performance in the last 50 years was based on the introduction of electronic components and the combination of mechanical and electronic elements with powerful data processing. In this volume, Rolf Hilmes describes the technological development up to today's battle tanks.
