A38 Valient Infantry Tank


The 27-ton A38 Valient Infantry Tank was an improved version of the Valentine Infantry Tank series, utilising many components of the preceding series. The early designs of the tank was initially armed with the 6-pounder (57mm) gun and the later ones, the 75mm gun. By the time the pilot vehicle was completed in mid-1944, there was no requirement for an infantry tank. The A22 Churchill was present as well.
