The AMX 13 was originally designed in the immediate aftermath of
the Second World War. It represents French ambitions for national
resurgence and withdrawal from wartime dependence on American
military technology. Being a light tank it was an ambitious and far
sighted departure from conventional tank design and it found a
ready export market as well as being a critical part in the French
Army arsenal. Its basic hull design lent itself to the development
of a vast list of variants. French designers progressively
modernised, and indeed reinvented, the AMX13 and enabled it to
claim to be one of the most successful armoured vehicle programmes
of the post-war period. It proved its worth in numerous small wars
worldwide in the service of many countries. This, the first
commercially published work on the AMX13 in English, examines in
detail the technical industrial and tactical story of this
remarkably successful armoured fighting vehicle. The authoritative
text is backed by an impressive selection of images
