With a new world order emerging in the early 21st century, Chinese
ground forces have been consistently improved and geared towards
quality for costly main battle tanks, while still maintaining a
huge number of cheaper AFVs. With 7,450 vehicles, China has today
by far the largest number of armoured fighting vehicles of any army
in the world. ModernChinese Tanks explores the main battle tanks,
armoured fighting vehicles, armoured personnel carriers,
self-propelled guns and missile-launching platforms in service
since 1945, with an emphasis on the latest technology deployed by
the PLA. Organised historically by type, the entries include the
Type 98 and 90 tanks, the Type 80/85/88 held in reserve, and the
Type 99 used by elite battalions. In addition, there is the YW-306
self-propelled rocket launcher and the PLA PL0 100mm assault gun.
Illustrated with expert colour profile artworks for each entry and
completed with technical specifications, ModernChinese Tanks is a
detailed reference guide for modellers and enthusiasts with an
interest in modern military technology.
