Description:

The Tank, Infantry, Mk IV (A22) was a heavy British infantry tank used in the Second World War, best known for its heavy armour and its use as the basis of many specialist vehicles. This series of tanks was named after Winston Churchill, who was not only the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom at the time but who during the First World War had been involved with the development of the tank as a weapon. The III was the first major armament overhaul of the series, eliminating the hull howitzer and equipping the tank with a more powerful 6 pounder gun (84 rounds). Unlike early versions, it had a welded turret.
