Studio : Vulcan Scale Models Publisher : Vulcan Scale Models Binding : Toy Product Description The Tank, Light, Mk VI was a British light tank, produced by Vickers-Armstrongs in the late 1930's, which saw service during World War II. The Mk VIB was also used in the North African campaign against the Italians late in 1940 with the 3rd Hussars and the 7th Armoured Division. Late in 1940 the British had 200 light tanks (presumably the Mk VIB) along with 75 cruiser tanks (A9, A10, A13) and 45 Matilda II's. An attack by the 3rd Hussars on 12 December 1940 resulted in the tanks getting bogged down in salt pans and severely mauled. 0
