Medium Tank Mark II


The Vickers Medium Mark II tanks entered service with the Royal Armoured Corps in 1926 and were the first post-war fast tanks then. Armed with a 3 pounder gun, 160 of these tanks were in service throughout the interwar period and continued in use as a training vehicle until 1941. Armour protection varied between 8mm to 12mm in thickness.
