Caliban historical reference
The Caliban is a project of the Royal Military College developed in 1962. The vehicle certainly was not pretty, but it was supposed to feature excellent movement characteristics, reliable frontal armor, and a powerful gun. The project turned out to be too complicated and expensive, and its numerous innovations did not guarantee any advantages over the vehicles in production and development. Work was discontinued at the drafting stage, and no prototypes were built.
