<br/><br/> A documented account of armoured warfare worldwide and look towards the future.  This analysis shows what a crucial role armour continues to play today.  Though the tank was a British invention, it was the Germans in 1940 which first demonstrated the power of all-arms armoured divisions to determine the course of the campaign.The Soviets also used massed armour as part of their increasingly sophisticated 'operational war'.  Armour plays an important role  and a decisive instrument to Israel and later in the Vietnam war.  Mutual deterrence developed out of necessity to prevent a nuclear exchange.
