Chieftain Marksman AA Battery (TBBX14)
includes three Chieftain Marksman Self-propelled AA Guns and one unit card.

The Marksman system was designed to be fitted to a variety of main battle tank hulls, including both the Chieftain and the Challenger. The first prototypes were tested in 1984 and with the war looming, the British Ministry of Defence decided to approve an emergency purchase of enough systems to provide low-level air defence for its armoured regiments in Germany.

With its usual professionalism, the British Army had prepared for war. Now, as the Soviet Army flooded across the border into West Germany, it was ready and waiting. Fox, Scorpion and Scimitar recon vehicles skirmished with the Soviet forward detachments as the Challenger and Chieftain armoured regiments waited. The infantry held the towns and woods, forcing the enemy into killing zones, new Warrior infantry fighting vehicles in fire support. If anything broke through, the airmobile troops in their Lynx helicopters would hold them. The British Army is ready.
