  • General Sir Rupert Smith, a British Army Paratrooper Who Commanded
    LESSONS TO BE Maj Gen Jagatbir Singh, VSM (Retd) LEARNT FROM is an alumini of Doon School and St Stephens College. He retired in Feb 2018 UK’s DECISION and has been writing articles on Defence DILEMMA ON related issues for the Tribune and various journals. TANKS General Sir Rupert Smith, a British Army paratrooper who commanded the 1st Armoured Division in his book ‘Utility of Force’ wrote that; “Armies do not prepare for the last war, they frequently prepare for the wrong one- if for no other reason the governments will usually fund only the anticipated primary threat as opposed to the risk and the opponent will usually play to his opponents weakness (the risk) rather than the strength (the primary threat).” The debate in the UK, resulting in the decision to do away with their heavy tanks may well be traced to the comments of Gen Rupert Smith. Having delayed modernization of its main battle tank fleet, and now faced with the prospect of an expensive replacement, or costly upgrades, the UK is in a decision dilemma regarding the options available. In essence a tank is essentially a mobile weapon platform, with protection for its crew to enable it to move in an unhindered manner on the battlefield. The essential elements of a tank remain firepower or lethality; mobility or 2 maneuverability; and protection or survivability; along with their various sub systems which include communications and sensors. The design of the tank is essentially a careful blend of these factors. It is this balance of its three essential components that makes the critical difference in its effectiveness.
