The British Army has rolled out the prototypes of its Challenger 3 main battle tank which are undergoing their first livefire tests in Germany. Dubbed as Britain's “most lethal ever tank”, the Challenger 3 is a significant upgrade on the Challenger 2. The upgraded tank not only has a deadlier gun but can destroy incoming antitank rounds in flight. The new tank comes as Britain looks to upgrade its defences given the increasing global instability. Challenger 3 isn't being built from scratch but uses the Challenger 2 chassis and features a number of improvements. Watch the video to find out more.
