Minichamps British Army Centurion Mk 5/1 - 4 RTR German Brigade - 1962. 350 035000REF:350 035000 - Scale 1:35 - Length 210mm (excluding barrel) A truly stunning replica of the British Centurion Tank. Built to the highest degree of craftsmanship and accuracy this beautifully constructed model would grace any collection. The development of the medium battle tank Centurion already began during the Second World War arriving too late to see any real combat. After the end of the war it was introduced as the British Armies main battle tank. Over the years the Centurions battle worthiness was further enhanced until it was replaced by the Chieftain in the beginning of the 1960’s. But as an artillery recognisance vehicle it was in active service until the late 1980’s. The Centurion was in use in at least 16 nations and belonged to one of the most wide spread battle tanks of western construction. The Centurion was sold to many nations including Australia, Denmark, Israel, Jordan and South Africa where it was the back bone of the Armies armoured units.
