An in-depth illustrated study of the T-64 Battle Tank, the Soviet
Union's most secret and controversial Cold War weapon. The T-64
tank was the most revolutionary design of the whole Cold War,
designed to provide the firepower and armour protection of a heavy
tank in a medium-weight design. It pioneered a host of new
technologies including laminate armour, stereoscopic tank
rangefinders, opposed-piston engines, smooth-bore tank guns with
discarding sabot ammunition, and gun-fired guided projectiles.
These impressive features meant that the Russians were loath to
part with the secrets of the design, and the T-64 was the only
Soviet tank type of the Cold War that was never exported. Written
by an armour expert, this detailed technical history sheds light on
the secrets behind the Cold War's most controversial tank,
revealing how its highly advanced technologies proved to be both a
blessing and a curse.
