Developed in 1928 by J. V. Carden and V. Loyd. The tank never entered service in Great Britain. However, it was exported to other countries, including China. In 1937, twenty vehicles of this type fought against Japanese troops at Shanghai. Soviet Vickers-based T-26 tanks were also exported to China, and 82 vehicles of that type were deployed in South China and Burma in 1941–1942.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Excellent brawler
• Has powerful guns for its tier
• Doesn't really fear tier 3 tanks
• Very good traverse speed
• 40 mm pom-pom gun can easily kill many tier II tanks really fast

Cons:

• Unresponsive at high speeds
• Slow acceleration
• Poor and unsloped armor
• Weak armor in the hull, avoiding HE and autocannon shells is really important
• Terrible accuracy on all guns

Performance

This vehicle plays much like a T-26, and is in fact the vehicle the T-26 was based off of. The 40mm Pom-Pom will devastate tanks at this tier with ease. The Gun 45mm 20K is an effective tank-killer as well, and will do in a pinch. Stay in the back- your thin armor will do nothing to stop anything at this tier. Overall, if you have played the T-26, then you will be at home, and many skills learned here will apply to the T-26.
