Early critics charged they were committed in insufficient numbers to make a difference. On 15 September 1916, at the Battle of the Somme, after horrific infantry losses, forty‐nine Mark I tanks were sent in to support infantry attack across no‐man's‐land. The first British tank, the Mark I, was a rhomboid‐shaped, tracked heavy vehicle weighing 26 tons, with two 57mm guns and a speed of 3.7 mph.

Churchill, then first lord of the Admiralty, also supported the program. The British first developed this mobile, armored war machine in a program initiated by E. Initially, the very name tank was employed as part of a deception to shroud its true nature as a weapon. The machine's raw power, gadgetry, speed, and size, along with the secrecy with which it was developed, created for it a mystique. The tank, invented in World War I out of military necessity, immediately captured the popular imagination. Total production volume in the T-54 / 55 series exceeded 100,000 units and production took place until the 1980s.Tanks. Nevertheless, in 1958 production began on the T-55 series and all the T-54 tanks were modified to the T-55, which is why we can often find the tanks named T-54 / 55. The T-34 should have been substituted by the T-44, which at the end was named T-54 and its production began in 1947.

Low silhouette, better armour and better mobility, together with a powerful 100 mm gun represented progress in the tank’s development.
