Wooden Mk VI
Permalink   

A friend sent me these.

"Wooded mock-up of Mark VI tank. Designed after Battle of Arras, it was an improved Mark V with greater speed, lighter loading and more ease of control. Not proceeded with. Note that it was to have one 6-pounder in front, instead of two in sponsons – Source: Imperial War Museum London Q14521 and Q14567"

Perhaps your friend should have looked the Mark VI up in Landships II. It was designed as an "American tank"

but later dropped in favour of the Mark VIII. Two of the images, the 3rd and last, seem to be of the mock up of

the Mark V***/Mark X.

Thanks for raising these - the IWM has got 4 images of the Mark VI and 4 images of the Mark X mock ups.
