MAIN BATTLE TANK CAMPAIGN

Just to add to Mr Happy's post, John Marcus :drinks had already made a campaign ribbon for this. He told me that it was intended for a Main Battle Tank campaign.

Now is as good as time to do it for John. :drinks

For those who don't know who John was, he was the person who started creating our Campaign ribbons years ago. We lost John to cancer several years ago and he was the subject of our first CTA campaign.

I'm in, I just got to figure out which MBT I can do.

So it starts already ... Definition Of MBT

Main battle tank


A main battle tank (MBT), also known as a battle tank or universal tank, is a tank that fills the heavy direct fire role of many modern armies. They were originally conceived to replace the light, medium, heavy and super-heavy tanks. Development was spurred in the Cold War with the development of lightweight composite armour. They are still supplemented in some armies with light tanks.

So what about the Soviet T series?

Nothing from WWII from any side?

I ask out of ignorance, the MBT is more of a "modern" term and was not something that would have been from WWII era?

If it hit the field after Korea you're good. No Israeli sherman upgrades either.

I'm basically a Schultz on this "I know nothink!" about modern armor.

Or in other terms, what I know about modern armor could be written in very big letters on a very small dot.

Good it was meant as a compliment

I knew the Abrams was an MBT, and think I know a couple of others, but don't have any in my stash. That coupled with too many irons in the fire already will be passing on this.

I'll be passively watching.
