美国媒体前不久报道称,英国将放弃国内坦克制造能力。而英国《星期日邮报》则是以一种略带伤感的语气来描述此事:“坦克将成为过去的记忆,英国在93年后停止生产坦克”。由于英国政府未来将不再生产坦克,英国最老牌的重型战斗车辆制造商已宣布将关闭其位于纽卡斯尔的坦克制造厂。这标志着曾研制出世界上第一辆坦克的国家——英国,结束了主战坦克的生产历史。 The U.S. media reported shortly ago that Britain will abandon its domestic tank manufacturing capabilities. The British “Sunday Mail” is a slightly sad tone to describe the matter: “The tank will be the memory of the past, the United Kingdom stopped producing tanks after 93 years.” As the British government will no longer produce tanks in the future, the oldest manufacturer of heavy-duty fighting vehicles in the United Kingdom has announced that it will shut down its tank factory in Newcastle. This marks the United Kingdom, the country that has developed the world’s first tank, ending the production history of the main battle tank.
