Description: "Main Battle Tanks 2nd Revised & Updated Edition" by Christopher F. Foss - Hardcover (8" x 10-1/2") - Published in 1986 by Janes - 208 pages (with hundreds of black & white photos and line drawings) - both book and DJ are in EXCELLENT condition. Jane's has been THE definitive source for information on military equipment around the world for decades. In any future ground combat in Europe or the Middle east, the main battle tank (MBT) will be one of the dominant factors. It is the only vehicle on the battlefield that has a high degree of survivability in a NBC environment and its armor gives it considerate protection against many weapons. This outstanding book provides updated development histories, complete lists of variants and full specifications of all MBTs that were in service at the time of publication in the world in alphabetical order of the countries concerned. In addition, details are given, where possible, of some of the newer designs that entered service just prior to the book's publication. The text is supported by several hundred selected photographs and line drawings. There is only some very minor edge wear on the DJ (too insignificant to be visible in the scan), but this book is still in EXCELLENT condition. No collection of books about tanks is complete without this one. Check out the scan for the great cover and so you can judge the condition for yourself (unlike many other booksellers, who post generic scans, the book in my scan is the one you will get). You can try to buy this book for less money from one of those eBay booksellers with hundreds, if not thousands of negatives (you know the ones I refer to) and be lucky if the book is delivered to you in the stated condition (if you even get it at all), or you can buy it from me and be assured of a prompt delivery and of receiving an item true to the condition indicated. You won't be disappointed. Don't get left out; this book is long out of print! All previous buyers of my books about military equipment have been completely satisfied. I have many others available; please check my listings. The book will be sent via Media mail shipping in the USA. I will combine shipping to reduce charges for multiple items. If you purchase more than one item or lot, please request an invoice for the appropriate combined shipping discount. See my auctions and my eBay store for hundreds of books and a wide variety of sports and non-sports collectibles. All items are packed with care to insure safe delivery. Please contact me if you have any questions. 8-18-24 -- 28.8
