The GKN Warrior infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) was designed to replace the ageing FV432 APC, and at the same time to be able to provide additional firepower. Although not strictly speaking a tank by most definitions, the availability of a range of turret-mounted weapons means that the Warrior is able to engage enemy light armour. The British Army’s FV510 variant mounts a 30mm RARDEN cannon. (Warehouse Collection)

Work on the Warrior started in the early 1970s, with the first prototypes delivered in 1980. The 30mm RARDEN cannon was mounted in a Vickers-designed turret. (Warehouse Collection)
