Video Description

Two tanks designed to fight each other in Northern Europe would face each other during the Iran-Iraq war in 1981. On one side, the British built Chieftain MBT. On the other, the Soviet built T-62. In this video, we examine what happened during Operation Nasr to find out which tank came out on top… Thank you to World of Tanks for sponsoring this video - and for providing representative in-game animations to help us tell this story.
