Which Chieftain model(s) did BAOR use?

Hi there

having served in BAOR, May 82 - May 88, I can with authority, say that there were certain factors which influenced which units got certain marks of Cheiftan. So by far the biggest update during the 80's was the introduction of IFCS and the retrofitting of ammo stowage to accept Fin rounds, this was universal across the whole fleet and was introduced unit by unit.

Challenger 1 started rolling out from 84 onwards and those units that were identified for its issue were not upgraded with Stillbrew or Cheiftan with TOGS.

Hope this helps.
