EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, two powerful Challenger 2 tanks dominate the Salisbury Plain Training Area. The image captures a moment during Exercise Lion Strike, an intensive training program designed to test Majors from various Army trades in Command and Control scenarios. Assisting in the exercise were brave soldiers from 4 RIFLES of 1 Armoured Infantry Brigade, along with 1 YORKS and the KRH in their formidable Challenger 2 Main Battle Tanks from 12 Armoured Infantry Brigade. Throughout the exercise, these forces showcased their skills at different locations across Salisbury Plain Training Area. The Challenger 2 (CR2) is undoubtedly the backbone of the British Army's armored might. Evolving from its predecessor, the Challenger 1 tank that served with distinction in conflicts like Gulf War and Balkans operations, CR2 boasts over 150 major modifications. These include a completely new turret design, L30 CHARM 120mm gun for enhanced firepower, and second-generation Chobham armor for superior protection. Inside each tank's cockpit lies advanced technology aimed at maximizing situational awareness and precision targeting. The commander benefits from a gyro-stabilized fully panoramic sight equipped with laser range finder and thermal imager capabilities. Meanwhile, the gunner relies on a gyro-stabilized primary sight alongside auxiliary sights for accurate aiming. Additionally, both driver and loader have specialized periscopes to ensure clear vision day or night. This remarkable photograph was skillfully captured by Cpl Si Longworth RLC (Phot), showcasing not only military prowess but also highlighting the dedication of our armed forces as they train tirelessly to defend our nation's security.
