The term tank was originally a code-name the British developed for their first WW1 fighting vehicles. A lot of these were like mobile, heavy armed and armoured water tanks. They were originally termed tanks to confuse the Germans while they were on their way over from Britain. Somehow the term tank has continued to be used in relation to them. In reality it sometimes gets confusing on just where the line between a tank and other AFVs is. For example the Greyhound has a turrent but because it has wheels it is not considered a tank. In reality most APVs now have tracks so I suppose it is now a case of purpose over physical appearance.
