A9 Cruiser Tank Mk I


The first battle tank designed by Sir John Carden of Vickers-Carden in 1934, as a simpler and cheaper variant of the medium tank A6. Some of the most successful parts were taken over and used in the new construction.


Since 1937, a series of 125 tanks was produced as a replacement for the old Medium Mk I and Mk II. He was in active service from 1938 to 1941. He was deployed to fight in France and North Africa.


Direct support tanks Mk I CS (CS = Close Support ) had a 3.7 "(94 mm) howitzer in place of a standard two-pound cannon. It is known that the Germans used several captured tanks Mk I CS in North Africa in late 1942.
