Aviation Specials Magazine Combat Vehicles Retour à l'édition précédente

Combat vehicles are an integral part of today’s warfare, with light air-portable vehicles designed for advanced force operations and armoured platforms capable of protecting troops from roadside bombs.

The history and development of these platforms spans back to World War Two and the introduction of the Willys jeep, used by Allied forces and adopted by Britain’s SAS.

The term ‘combat vehicles’ refers to any platform on the battlefield, from heavy armoured tanks to small strike vehicles.

Combat Vehicles, an all-new 116-page special by the team behind Britain at War magazine, details the light and protected platforms used by both infantry and special operations units, some of which are tracked.

In the 21st Century, as armies review the threat from drones and artificial intelligence, requirement for small strike platforms and protected personnel carriers is paramount in the planning and execution of modern operations.
