Tanks at the Iron Curtain 1960-75 by Steven J. Zaloga is a detailed analysis of the technology and tanks that faced off against each other on opposite sides of the Iron Curtain during the height of the Cold War. The book explores the shift in tank design and warfare from the 1960s onwards, driven by the development of CBR protection and the move away from HEAT ammunition to APFSDS. This companion volume to NVG 301 examines key battle tanks and their technology, providing a comprehensive overview of how tanks evolved during modern times. With detailed illustrations and contemporary photographs, the book sheds light on the technological advancements and innovations that characterized the era.
