The Jordanian 25pdr battery open up and cause a Syrian T-34/85 squadron to bail out.

The Sexton then fires as well but fails to take them out. The Jordanian Anti-tank battery of M10s knocks out 2 more while the Fireflys finish them off. The M-41 squadron push ahead and fire on the IS-2 squadron bailing them out while the M48 squadron advance and knock out several BTR-50 APCs. The infantry remain in reserve.

Despite the tenacity of the Jordanians, the Syrians and PLA held onto the town. King Hussien will reorganize and try again.

Jordanian vs PLO 1970.

One of the conflicts which is being covered by Battlefront Miniatures is Oil Wars which has a big bit on the Iran Iraq conflict of 1979-89.
There is also their earlier Arab Israeli wars also.

However I have been reading one of my history books Guerrilla Warfare (1985) by Buson Books. One of the conflicts covered is the Jordanian army offensive against the PLO in September 1970. This included a Syrian brigade made up of infantry and armored vehicles.
The Jordanian army was using a mix of British Ww2 infantry kit, Artillery but had US Armor and British Armor.
The Syrians had Soviet equipment.
The Palestinians had small arms from the Eastern block,and or surplus kit from WW2

So I should be able to put an action together of this.

 a Centurion tank which I was able to pick up this year.
