With the current war between Ukraine and Russia at the forefront of news coverage, this book aims to cover the various designs of tanks and armoured fighting vehicles currently in use in Ukraine. These include original Soviet equipment, home-produced vehicles, and many new AFVs supplied by Western nations. Ukraine is distinctive in having its own tank factories and producing its own designs, such as the T-64 and T-84 Oplot. It also has the facilities to repair and upgrade Russian tanks, such as the T-72. The confilct has seen many NATO nations, including the UK, donating equipment, which makes for an interesting and diverse inventory.

After 23 years of service in the Parachute Regiment, Craig Allen returned to civilian life in 2001 and began a career as a freelance photographer. Once in never out, however, and he continued to serve with 4 Para, the Reserve Battalion. After the terrorist attacks of 9/11 he returned to the regular regiment as a media escort and photographer for the campaign in Iraq with the job of escorting the embedded BBC crew and print journalist. The role gave him the freedom to move around the battlefield and cover the Paras on operations.
