Distinguished by its robustness and reliability, the tank above all closed a period of doubt and hesitation within the Soviet military-industrial apparatus: the T-55 and T-62 were rapidly obsolete and the T-64 was too...

The last great battle of the Second World War. " Typhoon of Steel ". That is the name by which the Battle of Okinawa is known. The deluge of fire that American forces rained down on the Japanese defenders of the island between April and June 1945 does indeed seem to justify the epithet.
