S1E11 - The Armored Cars of WW1 Pt.1

from History of Tanks & Armored Warfare · host Tanner Holyoak

Before tanks dominated the battlefield, armored cars paved the way—fast, lightly armored, and often improvised. In this episode, we explore the early days of mechanized warfare through the lens of three key vehicles: Belgium’s Minerva, the iconic Rolls-Royce, and Britain’s rugged Lanchester. These machines weren’t built to cross trenches—they were built to move, strike, and adapt. We’ll look at how they were developed, where they were deployed, and the role they played in shaping the future of armored warfare.Have questions?
