In 1986, ROF Leeds (and the Challenger production line) was acquired by Vickers Defence Systems (later Alvis Vickers). Jordan initially purchased 274 Challenger 1 tanks. Under an agreement signed in March 1999 another 288 surplus Challenger 1s were supplied to Jordan over a three year period, which enabled the Jordanian Centurion fleet (known locally as Tariq) to be replaced.

Brings back memories of the pack lift on chally 2. Probably one of the very few things that remained the same. Seen this tank and the chieftain at tanks trucks and firepower couple of years ago. Good day out. I always miss the old girl's, wish I could afford a little tank myself.
Wonderful vid. I reworked these engines at Perkins in Shrewsbury
Very unique and superb footage of the Chally engine removal.
Had to do a pack change on my wagon many years ago, the REME and i had it out in 25 mins on the floor, Fear Naught Brothers!
looks very familiar in the turret to a late 70s MK5 cheiftain gunner,exept for th IFCS controls and a couple of other toys
That whole engine/ gearbox assembly weighs five and a half tons!
Great video of the pack lift. Do you have the Aux Gen to install? Great to get some pics of that also. I'll be reproducing in1:35 so some great reference screen shots lifted form the video as reference. Never worked CR but definitely looks simpler and quicker than Chieftain / L60 and Cent Meteor ;)
Dont forget to diengage the muff couplings...lol
my dad drove those in the gulf also
Is the mk 11 at the end Lizzie?
is that spud from trainspotting
Nice to hear that good old L60 at full chat in the last frame, many night removing tri-flexi's ;)
Not Leyland L60. Clue is in the title, Rolls Royce CV12TCA
@@falix44 The tank at the end is a chieftain and that wail is the song of the L60 in full voice.
Is that just the cooler for the gearbox at the back? if it is bloody nora.
Rat King - Spot on ! - shes a beast when she fires up !
@@idpfilm Using a Hot automatic gearbox.... Manual wouldn't need a cooler, or atleast one that big...
Actual argument put forth by centurion designers. but with increase weight and load. Manual became infeasible so everyone uses automatics at high tonnages.
Triple differential cross drive gearbox. Its always hard to get your head around how that works the first time.
I just wish they'd make tanks with less Air holes in them and more armour plate. She makes all the right noises!
Rat King - You know your stuff - Thumbs up here
Great others will read and learn - good post
Best wishes Rat king
Slight upgrade on the useless L60..
need a crane driver.
How long did the swap take?
4 days Peter - we made a Cardinal Sin.... we forgot to make sure the Challenger was on 100% level ground prior to lifting the unit out. This caused the GIB when lifting to catch on one edge and **** it up - we have to re make a new GIB harnesses and drag the Tank onto pure level ground and gravity is a factor when lifting a huge pack out - she tends to swing level - even when the tank was at an angle !!! - Lesson learnt.
Angle of the Dangle, happens to us all. LOL
Is that the illustrious Andy Watson I see in the video,if so it’d be great to touch base with him.
We are all mortal man - compared to the Legendary Mr Watson.
Tanks tremble in his presence !
Served with him in the 80s in basic training,be great to catch up with him if you have contact details for him.
We have sent him a text message - can you email the office with your details and we will pass on
Hope this helps Fella
Andy Watson.... Andy Watson... names rings a bell. I remember... Big Nose 😂 served with him at 3 RTR LAD
Yeh - But we had to address him as " SIR " ! - and he's finicky about who jumps on board his Tank
last time we were there - he had us all on Parade, even Mr Scally ! - wasn't and enjoyable experience I can say .....
Hey Ho - Join the Army and Meet Mr Watson !
I have brand new for sale
