EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the power and precision of a Challenger 2 Tank, manned by soldiers from the Kings Royal Hussars, during Exercise Lion Strike on Salisbury Plain. This exercise serves as a rigorous test for Majors across various Army trades in Command and Control scenarios. Assisting in this challenging training were 4 RIFLES from 1 Armoured Infantry Brigade and 1 YORKS. The Challenger 2 (CR2) is the backbone of the British Army's armored forces. Derived from its predecessor, the Challenger 1 tank that demonstrated exceptional performance during operations in the Gulf War and Balkans, CR2 has undergone over 150 significant modifications. These include an entirely new turret, L30 CHARM 120mm gun, and second-generation Chobham armor. One notable feature of this formidable machine is its advanced thermal observation and gunnery system which provides magnified images to both commander and gunner. The commander benefits from a gyro-stabilized fully panoramic sight with laser range finder and thermal imager while the gunner utilizes a gyro-stabilized primary sight with laser range finder alongside an auxiliary sight mounted coaxially. Furthermore, this tank's driver enjoys enhanced visibility through an image-intensifying day-and-night periscope while the loader relies on a day sight for their role within this impressive vehicle. Captured by Cpl Si Longworth RLC (Phot), this print not only highlights military prowess but also pays tribute to those who serve in our Armed Forces with unwavering dedication.
