Introduced to the British Army in 1983, Challenger Main Battle Tanks have served operationally in the Balkans and both Gulf Wars.

In addition to the familiar gun tanks, the Challenger family encompasses the Rhino Armoured Repair and Recovery Vehicle (ARRV), highly modified Desert Challenger 2s operated by the Royal Army of Oman and the radical Falcon 2 being developed by the Jordanian Army.

This book covers a wide range of these variants, with each chapter presenting a different build using colour photos to illustrate scratch-building, painting and weathering techniques across a variety of skill levels.

Graeme Davidson is a Captain in the Canadian Army. He was educated at the Royal Military College where he earned a BA (Honours) in History. His previous books include Modelling the M113 Series and Modelling the T-55 Main Battle Tank.

Pat Johnston is a founding member of the New Brunswick Military Modelers and his main interests are in German Armour of World War II; however, he has recently discovered a taste for modern armour and even aircraft modelling. He is a past winner of the Tamiyacon Canada grand prize and his work is featured in The Marder Self-Propelled Gun and The T-55 Main Battle Tank.
