Tanks and Armoured Vehicles World War 1 Interactive Display Package Tanks and Armoured Vehicles Easy to Modify and Expand In-House Easy to Modify and Expand In-House Free An interactive package providing an overview of the development and use of one of the most significant innovations of World War 1 – the tank. Tanks are one of the highest-profile innovations of World War 1. Invented to break the stalemate of trench warfare, in the course of a few years of warfare they evolved rapidly to become recognisable as the forbearers of today’s formidable fighting machines. World War 1 Tanks is an off-the-shelf multimedia package designed for museums and education. It can be used as-is or tailored in-house by individual organisations to add whatever extra information they want. The graphics and branding can be changed too so that any school or museum can ‘make it their own’. The Benefits of Using InfoAktiv.

  • The Evolution of British Tactical and Operational Tank Doctrine and Training in the First World War
    The evolution of British tactical and operational tank doctrine and training in the First World War PHILIP RICHARD VENTHAM TD BA (Hons.) MA. Thesis submitted for the award of the degree of Master of Philosophy by the University of Wolverhampton October 2016 ©Copyright P R Ventham 1 ABSTRACT Tanks were first used in action in September 1916. There had been no previous combat experience on which to base tactical and operational doctrine for the employment of this novel weapon of war. Training of crews and commanders was hampered by lack of vehicles and weapons. Time was short in which to train novice crews. Training facilities were limited. Despite mechanical limitations of the early machines and their vulnerability to adverse ground conditions, the tanks achieved moderate success in their initial actions. Advocates of the tanks, such as Fuller and Elles, worked hard to convince the sceptical of the value of the tank. Two years later, tanks had gained the support of most senior commanders. Doctrine, based on practical combat experience, had evolved both within the Tank Corps and at GHQ and higher command. Despite dramatic improvements in the design, functionality and reliability of the later marks of heavy and medium tanks, they still remained slow and vulnerable to ground conditions and enemy counter-measures. Competing demands for materiel meant there were never enough tanks to replace casualties and meet the demands of formation commanders. This thesis will argue that the somewhat patchy performance of the armoured vehicles in the final months of the war was less a product of poor doctrinal guidance and inadequate training than of an insufficiency of tanks and the difficulties of providing enough tanks in the right locations at the right time to meet the requirements of the manoeuvre battles of the ‘Hundred Days’.

    Version 1.0 | Last updated 17 May 2016 Tanks and Tank Warfare By Michael David Kennedy World War I introduced new technologies and doctrine in a quest to overcome the tactical stalemate of the trenches. The first tanks had great potential that would be capitalized upon during the next world war, but early models suffered from design flaws and lack of doctrine for their use on the battlefield. Table of Contents 1 Definition and Background 2 Characteristics 3 Development in Great Britain 4 Battle of the Somme (1 July-18 November 1916) 5 Battle of Cambrai (20-30 November 1917) 6 French Tanks 7 German Tanks 8 Tanks in the American Expeditionary Forces 9 Impact of Tanks on World War I Selected Bibliography Citation Definition and Background Tanks are armored vehicles designed to combine the military factors of fire, maneuver and protection. Although the concept of armored vehicles preceded the Great War, the tank was specifically developed to overcome the stalemate of trench warfare on the Western Front that followed the First Battle of Ypres (19 October-22 November 1914). The marrying of recent technological advances, such as the internal combustion engine with armor plating, enabled the tank’s development during World War I. Characteristics The first tanks introduced in 1916 were generally slow and hard to maneuver, and they performed poorly in rugged terrain. The early models were heavily influenced by commercial tractors. While impervious to barbed wire, small arms, and shrapnel, their primitive armor was still susceptible to heavy machine gun fire and direct hits from high explosive artillery rounds.

English French German Italian Spanish. The Saint-Chamond tanks, first deployed on 5 May, proved to be so badly designed that they were unable to cross the first line of German trenches. The last 35 new battle tanks were in ordered by Cyprus and the last new variant vehicles, a batch of twenty GCTs, in by France. Chlorine gas attacked the eyes and respiratory system; mustard gas did the same but also caused blistering on any exposed skin. In December , the influential Colonel Estienne made the Supreme Command very enthusiastic about the idea of creating an armoured force based on these vehicles; strong Army support for tanks would be a constant during the decades to come. De Gaulle used it to delegitimize cooperation with the Vichy regime. Submarines could strike unseen from beneath the waves with torpedoes but also surfaced to use their deck gun.

The resulting disorder and breakdown of most of its S 35s rendered this unit, the most powerful of all Allied divisions, impotent; it was defeated by the German 5th Panzerdivision on 17 May.

Frank Donati rated it really liked it Nov 02, Ayer Publishing. By , the same armies had evolved armoured divisions that were a balance of different arms and services, each of which had to be as mobile and almost as protected as the tanks they accompanied. Over the years, many nations cut back the number of their tanks or replaced most of them with lightweight armoured fighting vehicles with only minimal armour protection. Proponents of mechanization and motorization pointed to advances in the motor vehicle industry and to the corresponding decrease in the use of horses and mules. In post-revolution Russia, the Vezdekhod was portrayed in propaganda as the first tank. During the period between the world wars, the weights of the classifications varied generally within these extremes. Boom, boom View Product. The continued progress in the design of armour, armament, engines, and vehicles was gradually swinging the trend toward more mechanization, and the military value of the horse declined. Tank designs of World War II were based upon many complex considerations, but the principal factors were those thought to be best supported by combat experience. The first generation included such prewar vehicles as the Panzerkampfwagen or Panzer I and II, which were similar to Soviet and British light tanks. The B1 bis, developed by Estienne in the early s, was still one of the most powerful tank designs in the world fifteen years later.

Fuller, maintained throughout his life an interest in ancient warfare. Alexander the Great, in particular, represented an ongoing field of enquiry in his consideration of military history from antiquity to the present on which he had begun to publish during the interwar period. 1 Well into his eighties, Fuller wrote an analysis of Alexander the Great’s qualities as a military leader. In the foreword, he asserted: ‘Happily, in this study of Alexander’s generalship I am not called upon to
