What are the Different Types of Military Tanks?
There are many different types of military tanks, typically indicated both by their design and the country of origin in which the tank was produced. These include different designs and models of the German Panzerkampfwagen, American tanks such as the M1 Abrams and the M4 or Sherman tank, and British tanks such as the Mk V and earlier models from World War I, and subsequent tanks designs like the Cromwell and Chieftain. Since military tanks were one of the cornerstones of 20th century warfare, their design and use was typically indicative of a country of origin or manufacturer within a particular nation.
