The Centurion Tank Mk5/7 is a British-designed main battle tank that was widely used by the Australian Army's Armoured Corps in the post-World War II period.

The tank was first introduced in the 1950s and remained in service until the 1970s, when it was replaced by newer tank models.

The Centurion Tank Mk5/7 was highly regarded for its durability and performance on the battlefield. It was equipped with a powerful 105mm gun and heavy armour plating, making it well-suited for offensive and defensive operations.

The tank also underwent a number of upgrades over the years, which improved its mobility, firepower, and protection.

The Royal Australian Armoured Corps played a key role in deploying the Centurion Tank Mk5/7 in various conflicts, including the Korean War, the Malayan Emergency, and the Vietnam War.

The tank proved to be a reliable and effective asset in these conflicts, contributing significantly to the success of Australian military operations.
