A development of Centurion tank, Chieftain tank introduced supine (reclining) driver position to British design allowing a heavily sloped hull with reduced height. A new powerpack and improved transmission gave it higher speed than Centurion tank despite being heavier (55 tons) due to major upgrades to armor protection (14” turret armor) and weapons armament with 120 mm cannon with two machine guns; this allowed it to replace both Conqueror and Centurion tanks while performing their roles effectively. It remained in service until replaced by British Challenger I, which shared many the Chieftain tank's features.
