The A13 Mk.III Cruiser Mk.V Covenanter was designed as a cheaper and lighter cruiser tank to replace the cruiser Mk. IV. It was armed with a two ponder gun and had 30mm armour. Problems with engines overheated made it unsuitable for deployment overseas, relegating it to training in the UK. Although the Mk. IV solved the overheating issues it was declared obsolete in 1943 https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/a13-mk-iii-cruiser-mk-v-covenanter/ #Covenanter #a13covenanter #tank #Cruisertank #BritishTank #WW2 #military #warfare
