The British Chieftain is 55 tons heavy, and has a 120 mm cannon. It is really a relic from the Cold War. Franky Bostyn, War Heritage Institute: “The tank is mainly used in West Germany, during the real Cold War, but also in the Middle East. In the 1970s, tanks were sold to the Shah of Persia. And there he was used in the war Iran-Iraq, and a number of copies also in the First Gulf War. Until today, a few are still driving around Iran. “
