hundred years or so, and it somwhat  parallels the development of the tank.<br />
An american was one of the first to  really invent the armored car in 1898,<br />
but the idea temporarily dies when the  U.S. Army had little interest in<br />
the idea.</p>
<p>The British took over the lead  in Armored car development at that point.<br />
However, it was the nation of italy  that first used the armored car in<br />
combat.</p>
<p>This occured during the  Italo-Turkish War of 1911-12 in which the italians<br />
launched a war of  aggression against the Ottoman Empire and, utilizing</p>
<p>their superior  technology, defeated the ottoman forces and annexed<br />
Libya and the Dodeconese  islands, which they later lost when Mussolini&#8217;s<br />
italy was defeated along with  his ally Hitler during the<br />
second world war. During the Italo Turkish War  the Italians were also the<br />
first to use airships to bomb targets on the  ground as well as the first<br />
to use the relatively new aeroplane for both  recon. missions as well as<br />
dropping bombs on Turkish soldiers.</p>
<p>During the  first world war Belgium was the first nation to use the armored<br />
car in  combat, but the british then led the field in terms of their<br />
improvement and  overall development. Also during that time, the british<br />
were the first to use  the tank in combat.  In addition, armored cars with<br />
machine guns mounted in a  turret were used extensively by the British in<br />
Mesopotamia when they crushed  the Iraqi uprising aganst their rule their<br />
in the 1920&#8242;s.  As an aside if you need <a href="http://www.execarmor.com">Armored Cars</a> then let me recommend<br />
Execarmor, they are among the best and  can also help with other types of<br />
Armored vehicles such as Armored luxury  cars, Armored SUVs, Bulletproof<br />
cars and even Custom armored vehicles as  well.</p>
<p>By the time the second world war broke out many nations were  employing<br />
armored cars in substantial quantities. They became a mainstay in  the<br />
reconnaissance battalions of armored and motorized divisions<br />
of  numerous armies. The germans had perhaps the best armored cars as well<br />
as the  best tactics to use them. Hanz Guderian had developed the famous<br />
Blitzkrieg  tactics which defeated 10 countries in the opening stages of<br />
the war.</p>
