Part three consist of the national list of tanks -those built is each country together with any local modifications of vehicles built elsewhere.
In the case of all the important tank producers ,the country's list of vehicles is introduced by an account of the salient points in its particular tank history.There is a glossary explaining in detail all the technical terms connected with tanks and their characteristics,and a comprehensive bibliography .

The encyclopedia is illustrated with over 400 photographs and diagrams.Many of these have rarely been seen before.The include a range of experimental types which form the links in the progress of tank design
