The first tanks, created by the warring states during the years of the Great War, only in general terms resembled the combat vehicles familiar to us. Designers in different countries understood that a vehicle designed to operate on the battlefield must have good maneuverability and protection, as well as carry effective weapons. As a result, most of the tanks of this period received a caterpillar mover and were armed with cannons and / or machine guns, and their crews were covered with steel armor. But that's where the similarities between them ended.
