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.
