The proper British title for this British film is "No Time To Die"; it was shown under that title in the UK in the late 1950s. However, 21st-century showings of the film on British television have reverted to its American release title of "Tank Force".
According to the book "When the Snow Melts", the autobiography of producer Albert R. 'Cubby' Broccoli, this picture was one of three from Warwick Films which were "released within a year". The three movies were: 'The Man Inside' (1958), 'Killers of Kilimanjaro' (1959), and 'Tank Force!' aka 'No Time To Die' (1958).
The movie's alternate UK title, "No Time to Die", would later be used as the title of the twenty-fifth James Bond film in the official series. The picture is the first film from production house Warwick Films, a company helmed by producers Irving Allen and Albert R. Broccoli during the 1950s, to be used as a James Bond movie title.
This World War II movie's director, Terence Young, had previously served in the British Royal Armored Corps as an officer during the Second World War.
The "Tiger" tanks shown in the movie are British Centurion tanks painted with German insignia.
