Text in original Preserved Tanks In Britain publication:

This Conqueror was delivered to Otterburn then filmed by BAE having a strike on it by a Swingfire anti-tank missile; this was shown on the Frederick Forsyth television series on the British Army in the 1980s (source: R. Griffin/Conqueror). This Conqueror is badly damaged; its turret is traversed to the rear and it is missing its main gun.
