| Zusammenfassung: | This book charts the history of armoured warfare from the first use of the tank in 1916 right through to the 21st century, adopting military, political and global perspectives. Alaric Searle explores the origins of the tank, its role in the First World War and its contribution to the outcome of the war. He considers its role as a tool of propaganda, the military controversies of the interwar period and the employment of armoured forces in all the major theatres in the Second World War. Since the First World War, major and medium-sized powers have invested heavily in armoured forces. Searle looks at the conduct of mechanised warfare in Korea, Indo-China and Vietnam, and during conflicts such as the Arab-Israeli Wars and the Gulf Wars. Armoured Warfare adopts a global perspective, providing the most comprehensive survey of the history of the subject currently available. With a detailed bibliography of both primary and secondary sources, it is an ideal companion for those studying armoured warfare, modern military history and war studies. |

1916 right through to the 21st century, adopting military, political and global perspectives. Alaric Searle explores the origins of the tank, its role in the First World War and its contribution to the outcome of the war. He considers its role as a tool of propaganda, the military controversies of the interwar period and the employment of armoured forces in all the major theatres in the Second World War. Since the First World War, major and medium-sized powers have invested heavily in armoured forces. Searle looks at the conduct of mechanised warfare in Korea, Indo-China and Vietnam, and during conflicts such as the Arab-Israeli Wars and the Gulf Wars. Armoured Warfare adopts a global perspective, providing the most comprehensive survey of the history of the subject currently available. With a detailed bibliography of both primary and secondary sources, it is an ideal companion for those studying armoured warfare, modern military history and war studies.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed January 31, 2017).</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Cover; Half Title; Title; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Figures; Maps; Preface; Abbreviations; Introduction; Origins; Terminology; Technology; Debates; The experience of armoured warfare; The principles of armoured warfare; The need for a global perspective; Chapter 1 The New Warfare: The First World War, 1914-18 ; The early development of the tank; The tank battles of 1917; Tanks in Palestine in 1917; The tank on the Western Front in 1918; 'Plan 1919'; Conclusion; Chapter 2 Innovation Versus Stagnation: The Interwar Period, 1919-39 ; The role of theory; The evolution of armoured doctrine</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="8" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">The evolution of organisationTechnology; Tanks in combat; Conclusion; Chapter 3 Blitzkrieg: The Initial German Armoured Successes, 1939-41 ; The Polish Campaign (1939) and its lessons; Armour in the French Campaign (1940); Operation Barbarossa (1940-41): Planning and execution; Armoured warfare and Blitzkrieg; Conclusion; Chapter 4 Quality Versus Mass: The Soviet-German War, 1941-45 ; From Barbarossa to Stalingrad (1941-.43); Manstein's backhand blow to Jassy-.

London ; New York : Bloomsbury Academic, 2017. 1 online resource text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index. This book charts the history of armoured warfare from the first use of the tank in 1916 right through to the 21st century, adopting military, political and global perspectives. Alaric Searle explores the origins of the tank, its role in the First World War and its contribution to the outcome of the war. He considers its role as a tool of propaganda, the military controversies of the interwar period and the employment of armoured forces in all the major theatres in the Second World War. Since the First World War, major and medium-sized powers have invested heavily in armoured forces. Searle looks at the conduct of mechanised warfare in Korea, Indo-China and Vietnam, and during conflicts such as the Arab-Israeli Wars and the Gulf Wars. Armoured Warfare adopts a global perspective, providing the most comprehensive survey of the history of the subject currently available. With a detailed bibliography of both primary and secondary sources, it is an ideal companion for those studying armoured warfare, modern military history and war studies.
