STEEL - THUNDER

 

169031  on the water

This web site is a collection of photos, stories and memories from times past, of all the Centurion Main Battle Tanks that were found in Australia which served in the R.A.A.C.

My search took nearly four years and with a lot of help from all you out there.

So far 126 Centurions were found from a total of 143. There were 142 Centurions owned by the Australian Army but there are two 169080 Centurions in existence. One being a rebuild of a mine damage Tank, the other being the original Hull.

I am hoping that in time we will find the rest.
