A look at the Vickers Mk 3 MBT. A follow on from the Mk 1 and Mk 2, the Mk3 saw sales success in Kenya and Nigeria. An allround capable and affordable tank, the Mk3 was the last of the Vickers Tanks to see sales in numbers abroad.
Special Thanks to Peter Breakspear for photos and trials feedback.
Thanks to my lovely discord team for rummaging up a few photos too.
