Bob,


The Vickers Light Tank pre-dates Australian LP carriers so would be fitted with British tracks (Pommy as you say). I think this was discussed recently with Colin, but I seem to recollect the Light Tank had a slightly wider track fitted, according to an amendment in the manual dated about 1937, and also think that it is wider than a British carrier track. Can find no mention of number of teeth on the sprocket though.
