Light Tank Mk IIA


This tank was designed in 1931 as a possible successor to the type Mk IA, in June and July, orders were handed over to suppliers who became Royal Ordnance Factory 29 pieces (A4E16 and A4E18) and Vickers 21 pieces ( A4E17). All versions are very similar and the differences between them and their predecessors are minimal.


The characteristic difference is the use of "only" two return rollers and from the beginning the use of Horstman's chassis damping. This was later (according to an American source) doubled. The Meadows engine remained in place to the right of the driver, but in the period 1932-1935, the engines of all manufactured tanks were replaced by the Rolls-Ryoce engine.


Tanks manufactured in R.O.F. they had two fuel tanks. At the top of the tower, the air vents were covered with an armored overhang to prevent shrapnel from entering the tank. The sliding hatch of the tower used so far has been replaced by a more reliable two-part hinged one
