Dr. Robert Cameron’s Mobility, Shock, and Firepower: The Emergence of the U.S. Army’s Armor Branch, 1917–1945 captures the multifaceted development of the Armored Force from its inauspicious beginnings in World War I to its fully mature, operational status at the close of World War II. Through analysis of the Armor Branch’s early years, it provides an excellent case study in force transformation. The development of new armor doctrines and organizations to exploit emerging technologies, concepts, and missions is the heart of this work.

National Army Museum - Cromwell Tank; Vehicle Hist ory and Specification (1983).jpg

This title (by David Fletcher, though he is uncredited on the cover), is a quick overview of the development of the Cromwell cruiser tank with a selection of photos. This is followed by an edited reprint of the vehicle manual for the Cromwell Mk.I, which has all sorts of handy close-up pictures and internal details. It might have been more useful if the operational Mk.IV variant had been profiled, but most details remained the same apart from the main armament. A set of 1/35th scale plans of the Mk.I and stowage drawings for several later variants round out the book.

AFV Weapons 41 - Robert J. Icks - M103 Heavy Tank + M41 Light Tank (Walker Bulldog) (1972).jpg

The M103 heavy tank served the United States Army and the US Marines during the Cold War. Until the development of the M1A1 in the mid 1980s, it was the heaviest and most heavily-armed tank in US service. The M103 was manufactured at the Detroit Arsenal Tank Plant and the first units were accepted in 1957.

The M41 Walker Bulldog was an U.S. light tank developed to replace the M24 Chaffee. It was named for General Walton Walker who died in a jeep accident in Korea. On 7 November 1950, the US Ordnance Committee Minutes (OCM) issued item #33476, redesignating the heavy, medium, and light tank classifications to classifications according to armament; the 120mm (heavy) Gun Tanks, 90mm (medium) Gun Tanks, and the 76mm (light) Gun tanks.

Christopher W. Wilbeck - Sledgehammers; Strengths and Flaws of Tiger Tank Battalions in World War II (2004).jpg

Tanks - AFV Armoured Fi... - Christopher W. Wilbeck - Sledgehammers Strengt...of Tiger Tank Battalions in World War II 2004.jpg

The Tiger and King Tiger tanks gained legendary status during World War II. Numerous tank commanders attained phenomenal tallies of kills and accomplished extraordinary feats during combat in these tanks, building the legend to near mythic proportions after the war.
During WWII, the Germans created eleven Army and three Waffen-SS heavy tank battalions. These heavy tank battalions were employed in nearly every part of Europe against almost every enemy of Germany. As vast in breadth and scope as the employment of Tiger battalions themselves, Sledgehammers provides historical examples and analysis of heavy tank battalions’ actions in North Africa, Normandy, Italy, the Ardennes Offensive, and numerous battles on the Eastern Front including Operation ZITADELLE/the Battle of Kursk, Operation BAGRATION, the battle of the Cherkassy Pocket, late war attacks to relieve Budapest, and many other more minor engagements.
Although a great deal has already been published about Tiger tanks’ technical details and some of the units which used them, until now, very little has been written concerning the organization and tactical employment of these tanks throughout the German armed forces and across the theaters in which they were employed. Sledgehammers provides an in-depth look at heavy tank battalions’ organizations and tactics, including the tactical doctrine by which these elite units were supposed to fight and how they were actually employed on the battlefield by their commanders and crews.
Even given the Tiger’s reputation, many readers will be amazed by the fearsome casualties inflicted by the crews of many of these behemoth armored vehicles. It is safe to say that no other armored vehicle of the war wreaked as much havoc among enemy formations as Tigers. Many will, however, also find it equally stunning to learn of the Tigers’ many technical and tactical vulnerabilities. Through the systematic use of extremely detailed primary source and other impeccably reliable research, Sledgehammers demolishes several major myths about Tigers in World War II.
Meticulously researched and written with the perspective and respect for Tigers' crews that only a professional tanker can bring to the subject, Sledgehammers synthesizes information to provide new and definitive insights into the strengths and flaws of World War II’s most feared and legendary tanks.
Prologue by famed Tiger ace Otto Carius. Epilogue by Tiger killers Viktor Iskrov and Ray Holt. 35 original maps. 42 photos.

Osprey - New Vanguard 97 - Steven Zaloga - M18 Hel lcat Tank Destroyer 1943-97 (2004).jpg

The M18 76mm Gun Motor Carriage was developed for the US Army's Tank Destroyer Command. It was the only tank destroyer deployed during World War II actually based on their requirements for speed and firepower. This book examines the development of this vehicle, the controversies over the need for high-speed tank destroyers, and its actual performance during World War II. Special emphasis is placed on examining its performance in its intended mission. Coverage also includes derivative vehicles of the M18 such as the M39 armored utility vehicle.

Peter Chamberlain, Terry Gander - Anti-tank Weapon s (1974).jpg

The author has taken a wider than usual view of the different ways in which armies have combated tanks, ranging from WW1 makeshift efforts, through interwar anti-tank-rifles, WW2 anti-tank guns and aircraft, to modern missiles and helicopter armament.

The penalty of covering such a lot of ground is that no part of it is explored in much depth, and the treatment is also rather uneven. So although anti-tank rifles and guns are reasonably well covered, the specialised anti-tank aircraft and helicopters receive only sketchy treatment.

Credit is due for describing some of the less well-kown equipment, particularly the non-German European interwar guns, about which little information is available elsewhere.

Vanguard of Victory - David Fletcher - 79th Armour ed Division (1984).jpg

A yellow triangle apex down, outlined in black, displaying the head of an aggressive-looking bull with red nostrils and tips to his horns; the device, or Divisional Sign, of the 79th Armoured Division. This beast was in a sense the oft'spring of a full-bodied creature which served to identify the 11th Armoured Division. The connection between the two was Major-General Sir Percy Hobart, an outstanding, outspoken and therefore controversial officer, whose stormy career spanned both World Wars. Commencing as a Royal Hngineer, Hobart translerred lo the 'lank Corps in 1923. The new corps, which was permanently established in September of that year and granted the Royal status a month later, embodied the spirit of progress in the post-war army and thus became a natural magnet for young officers of vision, among whom Hobart was in the van.

Arvour in action 04 - Bryan Perrett - The Churchil l (1974).jpg

The Tank, Infantry, Mk IV (A22) was a heavy British infantry tank used in the Second World War, best known for its heavy armour, large longitudinal chassis with all-around tracks with multiple bogies, and its use as the basis of many specialist vehicles. It was one of the heaviest allied tanks of the war. This series of tanks was named after Winston Churchill, who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Minister of Defence at the time, and had been involved with the development of the tank as a weapon during the First World War.
