Tank description:

The Vickers Mk. E Type B is a Chinese tier 2 light tank.Developed in 1928 by J. V. Carden and V. Loyd. The vehicle never entered service in Great Britain. However, it was exported to other countries, including China. In 1937, twenty vehicles of this type fought against Japanese troops at Shanghai. Soviet Vickers-based T-26 vehicles were also exported to China, and 82 vehicles of that type were deployed in South China and Burma in 1941–1944.An imported Vickers tank from the British, the Mk. E has worse handling than its tier 2 counterparts of other nations, but it can equip excellent guns. It may be difficult to appreciate due the poor accuracy, yet the Vickers is deadly at close ranges where its gun can easily penetrate any tank it gets to face and cause destruction faster than the rest. When upgraded to the second turret, it technically becomes a T-26.The Vickers Mk. E Type B leads to the Type 2597 Chi-Ha.
