Tog 1 they don't. The only Cavalier tank I'm aware of is one in rather poor condition on the isle of weight. They've got a FV4211 turret but not a hull. They have got a Rotatrailer. We have already got a lot of photos from the museum: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Tanks_in_the_Bovin

Such as: - Tiger 131 (which could be notable by itself) - Rotatrailer - the Sherman Crab - the FV4211 (first vehicle fitted with Chobham armour) All a bit niche but very interesting to those of us who are interested in such things... Richard Symonds Wikimedia UK 0207 065 0992 Wikime

FWIW, the only British tanks on en.wikipedia without an image appear to be: TOG1 Morris-Martel Tank, Cruiser, Mk VII Cavalier (A24) ([[Cavalier tank]]) But then, of course, there may be ones that don't have an article yet! Cheers, Magnus On Wed, Apr 23, 2014 at 3:48 PM, Jonathan Cardy < jonatha
