A Royal Jordanian Army Centurion Mk 5 of the 40th Armoured Brigade displays the colours typical of the period. It is armed with a 20-pounder gun and has smoke grenade discharge tubes on the turret. Jordan preferred Western equipment, and the British tank brought them decided advantages against the T-54/55s in the Syrian arsenal. (Artwork by David Bocquelet)
