The idea of the tank was developed during World War I by the British military, primarily driven by the need for a vehicle that could cross difficult terrain and provide protection for troops. The concept was formalized by Lieutenant Colonel Ernest Swinton, who proposed the development of an armored vehicle to break through enemy lines. The first prototype, known as "Little Willie," was created by the British Army in 1916, leading to the introduction of tanks into combat later that year.
