Historical Information

The Vickers E Mk B tank was developed in Great Britain at the end of the 1920s and became one of the most influential light tank designs of that era. The Mk B version differed from the Mk A by having two turrets, each armed with a machine gun, as well as a modified drivetrain. This tank was used under license or directly by many countries, including the Soviet Union (which developed the T-26 based on it), Poland, Finland, China, and Spain. The Vickers E Mk B took part, among others, in the Spanish Civil War and the Winter War between Finland and the USSR. The tank was mainly used in the interwar period and the early phase of World War II.
