How is a tank regiment organized?
Each nation (country) is different. For example during the Vietnam War an Australian armor regiment consisted of about 26 Centurion tanks which consisted of 3 or 4 "Squadrons" which in turn consisted of "Troops." In the US Army that Australian Regiment paralleled a battalion, thus a USA battalion consisted of roughly 57 Patton tanks (in South Vietnam) which broke down into companies (which Australian's called Squadrons), which broke down into platoons (which Australian's called Troops). Again, depending upon the nation; in the two examples above: 1. Australian Tank Regiment=An American tank battalion (even though the US bn contained twice as many tanks as an Australian one). 2. Australian Tank Squadron=Equalled an American tank company 3. Australian Tank Troop=Equalled a US tank platoon To make things even more complicated, in the US Army (Vietnam Era): 1. Squadron=Battalion (in size) 2. Troop=Company or Battery in the Artillery 3. Plattoon=5 tanks or 40 Infantrymen 4. Regiment=Brigade (3 or more battalions)
Types of tanks?
In 1950, the US Army redesignated tanks as 120mm Heavy Gun tanks, 90mm Medium Gun tanks, and 76mm Light Gun tanks. This was a change from the previous Heavy, Medium, and Light tanks, determined from the vehicle's weight. In 1960, with the advent of the new M60 Combat tank, and the deactivation of the Army's only Heavy Tank battalion (the M103 heavy tanks); the M60 series became MAIN BATTLE TANKS (MBT's).
