Hello again, Colin.
I am curious about the internal layout of these tanks, in regards to power plant and crew accommodations, in the overall evolution of tank design. From the World War One beginning for tanks, where everything was just stuffed into an essentially common interior, creating a rather noisy, foul environment for the crew, the Second World War tank had developed isolated engine and crew compartments with vastly improved crew conditions. Gun fumes were still an issue I think until the postwar development of the barrel mounted fume extractors. How does the Vickers appear to fit along this evolutionary line? David |

Take a look at the CVR(T) Scorpion and Scimitar, there are many parallels. Regards Richard
