Tank Concepts and Component Technology
The challenge in developing the first tanks lay in inventing usable engines, transmissions, steering systems, and chassis. While progress in the first 50 years of tank development was achieved through improvements in mechanical engineering and electromechanics, the last 50 years have seen performance gains based on the integration of electronic components and the combination of mechanical and electronic elements with powerful data processing. Tank expert Rolf Hilmes describes the technological development leading up to today's main battle tanks in this volume.
