Product Description
――In 1934, the British army sought an inexpensive general-purpose tank due to the effects of the global recession.
--Vickers has been developing a cheaper version of the medium tank Mk.III for some time, and was adopted as the cruiser Mk.I (A9) in 1937.
--Since the armor pressure of the A9 was 14 mm, a type strengthened to 30 mm was also ordered, and this was adopted as the cruiser MK.II (A10) and mass-produced.
-Initially, it was equipped with a water-cooled Vickers machine gun, but it was changed to an air-cooled Besa machine gun during production and was called Mk.IIA.
――In the 1940 battle with France, it engaged with the German army as a continental dispatch army, and was used as a main battle tank in North Africa until around 1941.
