Happy new year from all of us at Armortek. We hope that you have had a relaxing festive period and that 2022 is good to all of you.
Today the silence was broken and the factory started up again. All but one of our machines are busy on Churchill parts as we wait for the casting and some laser cuts for the Hetzer to arrive so we can finish off the remaining parts.
Reservations for the Churchill will start in the next few days - we will send out a newsletter with the details when that happens.
In the meantime, if you sent us an email, order or voicemail during the Christmas break, please be patient as we work through our backlog and get up to speed with things again.

Re: Happy new year 2022
Welcome back Monique and Kian, best wishes for a safe, productive and fun 2022, the year of the much anticipated Hetzer and Mr Churchill's very fine tank.
I'm just reading Patrick Bishop's excellent account of the Dieppe raid in 1942, in which he gives a very lucid and balanced account of the Churchills of the Calgary Tanks, who were a lot more successful than popularly believed, no thanks to the cavalier way in which Mountbatten's COHQ committed them to battle on less than favourable ground, not of their choosing, to misquote Elles at Cambrai.
Happy tanking.
