M46, M47, M48 and M60. They saw action in Korea, Vietnam, The Gulf and held the line in the Cold War. For almost 40 years the US produced a succession of good tanks - but they never seemed to be good enough for the top brass. Time after time, designers sought a perfection that seemed to lay out of reach until the arrival of the step-changing M1 Abrams. Up till then, you have what can be called “The Patton” family: a series of closely related tanks that are only intended to be temporary until the next big thing arrived... This is the story of the “Patton” family of tanks; tanks that the US tried and failed to replace time after time, yet which despite this ended up becoming the armoured backbone of the Free World during the Cold War. If you're seeing this, why not let us know which of the Patton family is your favourite. Or, if you loved the video, give us a like! Keen to get your hands on some awesome tank merch?

Commonly known as The Patton Family, this group of tanks were good
 but never quite good enough. Always meant to be a stopgap, the Pattons persisted where their prospective replacements failed, leading them to become the vehicles that endured the Cold War around the globe.
