Sam Cranny-Evans explains the workings of the technology behind armor, weapons, mobility, and mission systems, and its evolution to the present day. The modern tank is essentially based on the same concept as the tanks of early World War II: an armored vehicle capable of transporting a heavy gun to where it is most needed and supporting infantry. However, the technology used today is a blend of elements known 80 years agogun, armor, and tracksand developments that were completely unimaginable then, such as the one million lines of code in an Ajax reconnaissance vehicle or the unmanned turret of the T-14 Armata. "Target Stopped" examines the technological evolution of a modern tank's systems through a chronological account of key periods since 1945, from the Cold War through the various conflicts in the Middle East to Ukraine, and explores the threats that have driven these changes. Through accounts of tank battlescollected from historical records or reconstructed from archival materialthe stories come alive, allowing readers to appreciate the significance of each technological development. Sam Cranny-Evans, drawing on years of expertise in the field, also offers insights into the revolutionary changes that will shape the tanks of the future.
