Tank description:
The Cruiser Mk. II is a British tier 2 light tank.The A10 Cruiser Mk. II was a further development of the A9 modification designed by John Carden. The A10 had enhanced armor and no machinegun turrets. A prototype was built in July 1937 and adopted for service as a heavy cruiser tank. A total of 175 vehicles were ordered between 1938–1939, which were manufactured by September 1940. The vehicles saw combat in France (1940), Greece (1941) and North Africa (1941).The drop to Tier 2 removed the Cruiser II''s defining gun, the 3.7-inch Howitzer, and left it quite a bit weaker than before. However, it still plays and feels like an up-armed and -armored version of the Cruiser I, with similar mobility to its pre-1.9 version.The Cruiser Mk. II leads to the Cruiser Mk. III, and the Valentine.
