Maybe not states but enemy troops in general who might get involved into a conflict with the "Western forces".

And so he spoke, and so he spoke, that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep o'er his hall, with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
and not a soul to hear.

I know it is a centurion, I was asking if it was related to the Churchill.

Neither. It was designed a 'heavy cruiser tank' and became a MBT.

the Centurion is not an MBT. Nor was it never classified as one. An MBT is a tank wich replaces light, medium and heavy tanks. The age of the MBT started with the chieftain, T-64, M60 patton, Leopard 1 and AMX 30

An increasing variety of anti-tank weapons and the perceived threat of a nuclear war prioritized the need for additional armor. The additional armor prompted the design of even more powerful cannons.[4] The main battle tank thus took on the role the British had once called the 'Universal tank', exemplified by the Centurion, filling almost all battlefield roles.

Brits just called it differently at the time.

Universal tank is not a main battle tank. When the centurion was designed it was a heavy cruiser tank, it operated alongside the Conqueror. Wich was a heavy tank. MBT is a classification givin out way to fast. A T-55 for example, is not a main battle tank. Its infact a medium tank, and it was one when it was developed. It only recieved the MBT status in the 70's.
