The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet
Union in 1991 should have signaled a lasting ‘peace dividend’ for the
countries of NATO. Instead, within a decade, the ‘War on Terror’ had
refocused military spending away from conventional arms and the
armor-heavy formations of the Cold War era. However, as the level of
NATO’s commitment to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq reduced, Russian
aggression in the Crimea and Ukraine led to a renewed emphasis on
peer-on-peer warfare and a revival of more traditional forms of armored
firepower.
This book, looks in detail at the armored fighting
vehicles employed by NATO armies, their allies and partners, from the
end of the Cold War to today. From the mighty Leopard 2 Main Battle Tank
to the ex-Warsaw Pact vehicles now employed by NATO’s Eastern European
allies and partners.
Each article provides a unique historical perspective,
well-illustrated by carefully selected photos, and with individual
vehicles illustrated in color profiles. On top of this superb reference
material, a modelling gallery displays some of the most inspirational
NATO armor models from the pages of Military Modelcraft International
