Description

The lighweight, compact Valentine was an infantry tank first implemented in 1940 by Uk forces. It came as a welcome addition for the beleagured British who had previously been forced into a desperate evacuation from Dunkirk, during which precious materiel would have to be left out. An entire run of over 7,000 devices (stated in Britain and Canada) made the Valentine the absolute most prolifically produced Uk tank during WWII. The Mk.II/IV variation had been designed with the 40mm 2-pounder weapon, and showcased a 130 hp diesel engine plus a "slow movement" coil sprung suspension system system that supplied it ample flexibility the infantry tank component. It débuted in November 1941 in North Africa, and had been still serving in Tunisia, in-may 1943. Valentines were additionally passed on in significant figures toward Soviet Union underneath the "lend-lease" system. They had been mainly utilized in reconnaissance functions.
